Fighting In The Dark

As much as possible, we should do things fascists cannot do.

As much as possible, we should not do things fascists want us to do and we should do things fascists don't want us to do.

Never accept the fascist offer.

Very long essay from A R Moxon

https://www.the-reframe.com/fighting-in-the-dark/

Really keep reading even when you think it has ended , there’s more

It ends with:

There are dark times ahead.
But hope is a thing that fights in the dark.

Read that far

we should not be so timid and complacent as a people or party.

Thank you for posting!



"... Somebody will tell me many of those who voted for it didn't know what they were voting for, and I imagine that's true. I have to say, though, that the ignorance and complacency demonstrated by Republicans and their allies is an ignorance and a complacency so vast and unfeeling that it must be taken as interchangeable with malice. When somebody is killing you, at some point during the act it stops making much difference—from the point of the victim anyway—whether they are killing you because they hate you or because they just don't care enough about you to know it...
