Surely not. We have the right to assemble and protest right?
Not like there are examples of police beating the fuck out of unarmed students, or watching armed citizens attack other citizens and doing nothing about it. That would be a fascist police state, now wouldn’t it?
Remember, rights you feel uneasy exercising are rights you don’t have. Flip-off a cop, tell them to go fuck themselves, call them a pig, it’s every American citizen’s right to do so.
So now that you’ve thought about that, do you have those rights? Or no?

There simply weren’t enough protestors. We let the students take the fall for the rest of us. The law is never gonna change itself.

Implying that it’s not fascist already with the state cracking down on protesters against genocide

Of course not. We are already there with the illusion of liberties, if privileged enough.

It’s like a slow moving tide. People keep asking if there’s going to be a flood while walking around in waist deep water.

at what point did the germans realize germany was fascist
- gentooer ( @gentooer@programming.dev ) 7•5 months ago
The term fascism stems from that period, from the Italian Fascist Party. It just was a slow roll during the Weimar Republic, in which violence and politics became more and more entangled until they were indistinguishable from each other.
There of course were a lot of people standing up against fascism and nazism, but it wasn’t unilaterally seen as something really bad until after the second world war.
