What you need to do instead is be civil. Which means you need to willingly let the fascists take over your country. In fact you should encourage them to do it, because platforming opposing viewpoints is actually the sign of civility. Yeah, I know, they might murder you, and me, and everyone we hold dear, but sometimes that's just the price you have to pay to maintain civility.

But then you get to vote against them; the one and only acceptable political act.

that's why so many in red and swing states are blocked from voting or gerrymandered from its impact and, having been one of them while i lived in texas, i learned the hard way that not accepting this fact that makes voting alone ineffective where it's needed the most is probably the biggest reason why things are guaranteed to get worse.

Why would I waste a perfectly good grenade when a deep enough pit will do the job eventually?

[–] davel@hexbear.net 33 points 10 months ago (2 children)

That’s what separates us from the bourgeoisie: grenades cost money and are a kindness compared to oubliettes.

[–] WithoutFurtherBelay@hexbear.net 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I an a humanist, which is why I propose we change our policy to involve two grenades instead of one, in case those who experience our Fascist Rectification Program continue to experience pain despite the first explosion. We would never refuse a patient anesthetic for a dental procedure, and similarly, the patients of this essential procedure should be sufficiently anesthetized as well. Thank you everyone.

The only moderate policy I'll agree to...

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

More co-living oubliettes!

The satisfaction of it

Real communists would just use their hands, saving both a perfectly good mine shaft and a perfectly good grenade.

[–] BeamBrain@hexbear.net 22 points 10 months ago

Won't someone think of the poor fascists' free speecherino???

I agree, that's a waste of good munitions. Just seal the shaft.

[–] silent_water@hexbear.net 17 points 10 months ago (1 children)

drop in a blade without a handle and seal the shaft. they'll take care of themselves kris-love

If you dropped a grenade without pulling the pin i wonder how long it would take before someone accidentally (or intentionally) sets it off

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Whoa whoa whoa, who said anything about a grenade?

[–] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

I prefer to designate the pit as a gender neutral bathroom

[–] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 13 points 10 months ago

kubrick-stare So much for the tolerant left.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 10 points 10 months ago

I'd rather shove them all in the nutty putty cave and let them try an wriggle themselves to freedom (spoiler there isn't a way out)

A grenade is just a waste of resources, just fill the hole

[–] a_blanqui_slate@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago

You know the grenade actually killed only like one of them so the proposed solution is dehydration and exposure.

Yeah, thats what they all say as they fall down the mine shaft

Tito can be mythologized as a sort of saintlike demon slayer and people will still have a problem with the idea. This guy does exist.
