ID: 3 stills from A Bullet for Baldwin (1956)
-
Alfred Hitchcock says “I’ve just come into possession of a cure for fascism”
-
He sets some bullets on his desk and says “they come in capsule form. For best results, they must be taken internally.”
-
He holds up a revolver and says “here is the handy applicator.”
All that too. But anyone who think fascism is going away without armed self defence is, at the very least, not paying any attention whatsoever.
Oh I’m taking about armed sabotage. Also armed self defence
Oh ok, cool, so we’re on the same page lol
E: I guess I’m just too used to libs suggesting boycotting individual companies as a solution to our problems…
Time for people to learn how to make and use molotovs again.
Everyone worried about paying their bills and not securing their freedom, forgetting peaceful protests didn’t stop fascism the previous times.
Well I’m not gonna say this won’t demand warmed conflict.
But I do want to note that I don’t think the only options can be harmed conflict or an ineffective boycott of a multinational conglomerate.
There has to be other ways. And I’ve actually thought of several, but nothing so simple I could propose it in a single sentence and usually when I get into talking about it the some people get heated up and I’m tired of the same fights over and over. It’s hard to fight alone, but I seriously think the internet would be a more powerful tool in the larger picture than personal firearms. Or at least, I very much hope so.
But life has had a way of doing exactly the opposite of my wishes.
So.
Fuck…
