        He won the popular vote. Step foot outside an urban area and you’ll see that his popular support isn’t just an illusion.

        There’s a floor of around 38% of Americans who are going to hold that line to the death. They’ve lost friends, family, and businesses over their stance already and haven’t budged. This has been going on for ten years now. They’re in it til the end.

        Historically speaking, fascism is voted in but never voted out. Historically, it is only ever been uprooted through military action.

        Also, it is easier and safer to say what needs to be done between friends in conversations not mediated by the internet.

          The silver lining of all this, is that it’s unlikely that any of these Nazis will die of old age. Most will die from a bullet or at the end of a rope.
