No matter what way you look at it, we’ve officially entered the age of American fascism. It happened so subtly and so quickly that people still deny it’s even happening

Tbh, I just think most people don’t know what fascism is It’s not obscure, but you’re relying on the average American to understand a political theory…..that’s just not a good strategic move tbh

Im a progressive and no we are not there yet. We are seeing trump test our institutions, like the free media, a lot of which are doing what he wants, but we still have free elections. 2026 is the only way out of this

Definitely, I think we’re well past the point of political education though. People are going to have to suffer the effects of what they voted for before they’ll change their minds

I completely disagree with “beyond the point of political education. I would say political education is always important That, and we need to start using tangible language

Yes man, some people are unreachable thank you for that profoundly obvious statement That being said, I literally go to my local Republican meetings to convince people against the administration covertly and I’ve gotten people to agree some things are worth consideration The truth is, it’s easier for you to claim they are all beyond reasoning. They aren’t, you just gotta get off your ass and be strategic

I wholeheartedly believe in using tangible language. I am a political science major and I never ever use terms used in the classroom to educate. Frankly because the average persons either doesn’t care or doesn’t understand
