Pretty much every other sign at the protests on Saturday openly called the situation fascism. "No fascist USA" was a common chant across America. LA erupted in civil unrest when fascists rolled up and starting trucking people out by the dozen, and people everywhere roared in protest.

Many of us have noticed. Many of us are working on it. We need to organize. We need to band together. We need to convince people that it's not hopeless, that it's not just more of the same and that it's not inevitable.

Together we can change things. We need to do everything we can to grind the wheels of fascism to a halt. Feel free to help!

THIS. Everyone who's feeling hopeless needs to get out of the Lemmy echo chamber and find people building the resistance in the real world. It's actually not hard to do. Go to a protest and talk to people. Look online for a local resistance organization and show up at a meeting. Spend your money at companies that don't support fascists. Whatever you do, just don't give up because that's exactly what the fascists want.
