    So, what do you suggest I do then as an alternative to voting in this scenario? I suppose I could spill the blood of the politicians that want to build concentration camps, but once again unless I change the minds of millions of people and start a full blown civil war, then the bloodshed will be pointless. I could also move away from America, but that’s assuming I could even afford to do that let alone be able to do it legally. The only power I have as an American citizen as of now is to vote. That’s the only power I have. Protesting will eventually just get me arrested or murdered once Trump completes his power grab.

      You have more power than just voting every 4 years lmao. Get organised and start interacting with like minded people and get other people on your side. Every 4 years there’s 1540 days where you could be fighting fascism and you’re only doing it for 1.

        I mean tbf, this is more personal rather than political but, if this comment section is any identification I doubt I should be the person who does organize a resistance. This is me with time to think about my replies too, imagine me with a real time debate with someone. I have a group of friends and a family with similar opinions to mine, but would that truly be enough to resist fascism or would we all be broken or annihilated with no impact at all?

          Monkey together strong.

          Also depending on where you are there’s likely already anti-fascist groups.
