I’ve really been considering as an American because of how far right and anti worker everything is

    I also go back and forth between “stay and fight for your home” versus “escape and enjoy life, don’t be stupid.” I don’t know.

    The Bad News is the latter is going to get much harder as more people living under capitalism wake up to the reality of their situation.

    The Good News is the former is going to get much easier as more people living under capitalism wake up to the reality of their situation.

      Yeah, I mean hey if Brother Xi & Friends want to unload a couple [REDACTED] at the [REDACTED] when shit is spicy I think we might actually have a good chance. I mean hey even ragtag groups like ISIS flustered the seemingly omnipotent behemoth American military, and things have only gone downhill for American supremacy since then. I also am waking up to the idea that a lot of American fascists are LARPer cowards who will buckle the second they don’t have odds overwhelmingly in their favor.

          I might have misremembered something…but I definitely remembered reading about one of the big name Islamofascists and how they can fluster big conventional militaries. Either ISIS or America might have been switched with something else in my memory. It didn’t touch on popular support IIRC, it was mostly just talking about getting big bang for buck, destroying extremely expensive equipment with relatively low tech cheap equipment.

          Hopefully with war and all its misery and insanity rubbed directly in their faces, even the vehemently anticommunist Western civilian populations will wake up and join us.
