How about you read a book about Nazi Germany and then we can talk? Fighting fascism with less than 2% of the population is how you get your resistance incarcerated.
We need more people. We lose people with violence.
It's okay lil bro, just give up. You clearly aren't cut out for anything.
I’m clearly more educated than you. It’s emotional reactionaries such as yourself that give the fascists justification to legally suspend our rights. Maybe spend less time at the gym and go find a library.
No you're right, the best way to deal with fascists is clearly to bend over backwards and give them what they want. Just give Poland to Hitler, it'll make him happy /s
I’m saying violent resistance is the reason we’re about to lose rights and people to incarceration. Protestors will be too afraid to protest for their safety. I’m saying violence is not productive. Why is that hard to comprehend?
Because you're losing those rights regardless of whether or not you fight. You can't placate fascists. If you give them an inch they will take the whole mile, so may as well fight for the whole mile.
So why not just give in by losing our resistance? Your logic is horribly flawed.
So it's better to have no resistance than to let the fascists know we don't love them.
Who said that? I’m advocating for peaceful resistance. We need more numbers. Violence only reduces them.
So nonresistance.
And this will be the excuse for doing nothing until we're all in camps.
You need to stop using German history as a reference if you aren’t actually familiar with it.
The communists set the Reichstag fire in 1933. That emboldened Hitler to attack them as a class and deport them to Poland. There was a larger percentage of communists in Germany than our largest peaceful protest. You’re literally suggesting walking head first into repeating history.
I didn't mention Germany.
So, how do you intend to increase the numbers of people willing to oppose fascism before we're all in camps?
