      So what’s your solution to fascism? Trying to shame them by pointing out their hypocrisy? Appealing to their sense of empathy? “Slamming” them for their behavior in a tweet?

      I wish more people could understand the brutal reality of these situations without having to live them. It’s not just chanting and throwing a punch or three, and then going home. It’s going to be horrible and nothing will be the same afterwards; a lot of people we love are going to die, and the outcomes we want aren’t guaranteed, even if we win. If it’s a fight that has to happen, then it will, but nobody should be looking forward to it even grimly.
