Things have gotten so bad in America that they no longer view voting and protesting as a viable way to achieve change in the system. As a result, more and more of them are calling for a revolution—and not all of them think peace is an option. In this video, we’ll discuss how declining material conditions, the collapse of the state, and rise of fascist authoritarianism has led to a conversation about the need to rise up and overthrow the system.

We've had precisely one argument in the past.

It was me warning you that you were engaging in a form of slippery slope with regards to antisemitism. I pushed back on you for that and you decided from then on we were enemies.

And as I said in my joke, I would only ever extract urushiol for entirely legitimate purposes.

Oh we've had a lot of arguments. A LOT. At least one since I moved to this instance.

I'll take your word on that. But I'm standing by what I said. We were fine until I called you out for antisemitism.

Feel free to link to that, I've never discriminated on basis of religion.

Great. No worries and will do. Also, it looks like you've been deleting your alts, and I'm not sure which one you were under at the time. It will make the look up process easier if you can remind me your old account handle. I thought you were at .world?

I've been on Lemmy.World, Piefed.World, and now I've moved over to Feddit.Online (because the World admins support the ML developers directly and indirectly).
