      Yes but apparently fighting fascistism is mildly inconvenient so they’re not going to do it.

      Where did the original commenter say they weren’t doing these things? Or are you just not satisfied unless every random person on the internet is declaring they’re committing suicide by cop?

      Where do you live, should I make assumptions about you? Are you out on the street right now calling for sanctions on US plutocrats? Are you in the USA and not seeing this networking happen on the ground? If so, where in particular and what are you doing about it? Otherwise, what conditions are making your networking successful and how can we replicate those? Because I promise your imagined passivity is not universal…

        We’re powerless and spread too thin geographically to do anything meaningful. Maybe we do need to get that radical, but I really hope it doesn’t ever need to get to that point.

        I was replying to this. I didn’t make any assumptions, I was replying directly to their claim that they’re powerless, unable to do anything meaningful, and that they felt hope that they wouldn’t need to get radical.

        “Americans should improve their society somewhat.”

        "Why do you want me to die? ? ? ! ! "

        The world has been seeing America spilling blood of the citizens of the third-world in the streets for decades. What goes around, comes around.

          Ahh yes, that’s such a wonderful approach to take. You sir are no better than Trump.

          Edit: In fact you’re no better than the United States government at that. You’re sick.

            I don’t want to see anyone dead, or suffering, but you have to acknowledge how fucking evil your country is if we are going to have this conversation. Your government is actively doing nazi shit, and you are trying to shame ME? I am begging you to DO SOMETHING TO STOP FASCISM, but all you can do is get upset about people chatting shit about your nazi fuck nation on the internet.

              You just said “what comes around goes around” in regards to my country’s shitty behavior. You’ve lost all moral standing with me because of that and have shown you’re not reasonable. V
