Seems like a good place to drop this very timely link from one of my favorite youtubers:

Yeah it’s amazing that people go out and vote when, you know, there are actually primaries and the Democratic Party runs candidate that the constituencies actually want. Who could have known?

Yeah how are we a decade in and still most Democrats are still on the whole “well, you know, it’s better to let democracy die on the high road than to stoop to their level” shit??? I’d rather not live the rest of my life in the coming and present nightmare in the service of some abstract, holier-than-thou nonsense, tyvm. Go lower, Jesus Christ.

Good thing those of us that saw this coming spent a decade getting called naïve and hysterical for saying “abolish ice”… by Democrats.

Yeah I’m gonna need a higher bar than not potatoes. I don’t know how many times I can be expected to vote for “barely not a republican” consecutively but we’ve definitely passed that point. Clearly voting for the candidate that’s a Democrat and slightly better than potatoes hadn’t worked… like at all. I’m so tired of “Vote Blue No Matter Who (unless the blue candidate is to the left of Schumer and co. then they’re basically Hamas)”

Oh good! So we have robust strike funds now then?

Lol my most local one was peaceful af this morning. Womp womp.

Although as another commenter pointed out, see Rojava. Or the Autonomous Zapatista Provinces, although the two are quite different in many respects.

See, e.g., Obama winning it, the world champ of extrajudicial drone strike assassinations, including against a US citizen.

Not OP and not particularly knowledgeable, but under Modi India has shifted into something closer to old-school, early 1900s fascism than almost any other country currently. For example, his rise to power was largely on the back of inciting mob violence against Muslims while giving the perpetrators impunity. He continued that policy on the national level, and his party’s paramilitary wing is much like the Brownshirts.
