    Yea, i know. And what i said still remains true. The disengaged do not care and are fine with tyranny or what ever, at least until it affects them. The careless fool. The disenfranchised were missing when they were needed most, they care, but not enough to surmount minor inconveniences. I have not heard of anyone who was prevented from voting only that it was inconvenient. The lazy fool. The dejected are people who care a lot, but know that you can never fix a system from within so why even try? The hapless fool. And then there is me. Who voted Democrat, knowing they are just a slower slide into tyranny, but did so because i believed that as long as i have any strength i must do all i can, leaving me the naive fool.

        Also, no one in history has, or ever will vote fascism (or other tyranny) away.

          Organize workers into militant labor unions and leverage them for political struggle. Inflation won’t go away, it’s a structural problem that comes from the collapse of the US empire. As economic conditions continue to worsen the unions will only grow larger and more powerful, regardless of what happens to the NLRB.

            Already ahead of you there. I have picked up hobbies that would be valuable for this. Any particular groups that would be good to join?
