No I’m not catastrophising.

The world is slowly lurching towards a fully fascist led America, India, Hungary, Russia, Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Argentina.

Instead people are either ignorant or blaming “wokeism”* for their problems.

I have no clue what to do and this is literally a car crash in slow motion.

I’m despondent because I’m going to be crushed under the boot when the time comes and my morals get in the way of my survival instinct.

Humans are repeating the mistakes of the past. It’s just so anxiety inducing.

*Woke is a useless term promulgated by fascists to dog whistle the things they really want to hate - feminism, socialism, LGBTQIA+, immigration, brown/black people, equality and diversity.

Hi, Why do you think India is a fascist country? I believe its the most democratic country ever. However looking forward to your perspective.

All we have to do is unite. There's more of us than them. And we don't even have to protest or leave our homes. They all bow down to the mighty dollar, all we have to do is plan not to buy from 'company A' unless they 'insert world fixing demand that they're currently doing the opposite of' ' knock them down one by one. We could even pool together a dollar or two each, that's all we'd need if we got enough people together and buy ourselves our very own Politician!! We may even be able to buy them all back.... That's probably pipe dreams. We need to make Poole's union.

We have never successfully done that. Nestle is still out there doing their stuff

About the only palliative measure I can think about is to disengage from society completely, as it's no longer possible to correct it, and go live in the middle of nowhere until the planet eventually goes to hell. Or until society decides to go fully nihilistic and self-terminate.

Hey, at least we are fighting them this time! But sure, if system-wide changes are not coming, more people will fall into the hands of the fascists.

Yeah you poor souls are truly living in an anti democratic fascist oligarchy and man I wish I could do something to help.. God save us all for what will happen when the time comes to pay for someone with weapons
