[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a neighbor from Turkey.  They watched it happen there and now she is watching it here. It's really bleak.[/quote]

Why are we not fighting back? We can't just sit still and let the GOP destroy our country.
What can we do? Why are our leaders not fighting back? Are they so married to corporate interests that they dare not fight the GOP reign?

To answer OP's question. We ARE living in a dictatorship right now. It has already happened. Russ Vought is the dictator. Trump is the figurehead/cult leader. Stephen Miller is running the campaign to remove all immigrants (all non-white immigrants, that is) from U.S. soil.

Now what? We will lose a lot of our rights. Truth will be hard to find. Freedom of the press, which shrinks every day, will be lost. News will go underground. Many people will be arrested by the ICE brownshirts and thrown into "detention centers". Your phones and social media will be monitored, and anyone who criticizes the regime will be arrested. Fear will reign. Yes, you'll go to your job, and your kids will go to school, but they will learn propaganda in school, and you will be unable to express your criticism of the government. And everything will cost a lot more than it does now, and your lifestyle will sink lower and lower every year. The oligarchs will get richer every year -- off of you and me and everyone who is middle and working class. [/quote]

We aren't fighting back because white people seem to think they can just put their heads down and survive a white supremacist authoritarian regime. Oh well for everyone else![/quote]
