Through coordination with the communities of others. Militias have and are very effective at fighting conventional standing armies. Look at the viet kongs, the anarchist militias in the Spanish Civil War, and the Ukrainian Black Army. Or the slave rebellion of Haiti. Even modern day, the Zapatistas hold their own against both the Cartels and the Mexican government.

Militias are a thing. We mean standing armies. No one is saying we just let the imperialists walk in and conquer us. It means people should be able to live and work wherever they want, unhindered by borders. An invasion is something else, and would be defended against by community defense and militias

Yeah, a pretty popular twitch streamer.

This is probably a hot take (apparently my previous one was also a hot take so who cares), I blame Hasan. He is no more than a spicy liberal, basically a social democrat. But he calls himself a socialist. So people watch him, feel radical and call themselves socialist when all they really want is a welfare state.

You’re right, I was putting words in your mouth. Sorry. I do feel my comment is more or less still relevant

Democrats, people who aren’t leftist. And as another person said, leftists would be communists, revolutionary socialists, and anarchists.

Liberals think that the only way to protect people and get change is to vote. They refuse to comprehend that there are other options, because they are too scared to do anything that actually matters. Voting is the easy way to feel like a good person and feel like you make a difference. Know that your efforts to ACTUALLY help people are recognized and appreciated. By me, other anarchists, and the people you directly impact with your actions. Don’t let liberals make you feel bad for not falling for their pyramid scheme of a system

I’m saying this one more time, so all you libshit assholes understand. I am not unaffected by the election results. I work through direct action to help others. I work to build systems of cooperation and disempower state and capitalist systems at a grassroots level. You can do things without the state and I wont let democrats and the government hold me and the people I care about hostage. My rights and others rights will not be a carrot on a stick for politicians to dangle in front of my face. If any of you actually cared about stopping fascism and protecting people you would be on the ground feeding and defending the homeless, building radical unions, doing community defense, and more. You all forget that voting never stopped fascism before, and it won’t now. You are no better than the conservatives and fascists as you both threaten and abuse those that don’t want to follow your regime.

I do harm reduction in the streets. You do harm reduction by sucking politicians dicks. Don’t act like the anti-trans shit Trump does doesnt affect me.

I am not doing nothing, I’m just not voting. And you are a privileged asshole to think I am not affected. I choose to make a difference outside of electoral politics. Thats your issue. You think the only way to make a difference and protect people is by voting.

Guys guys if we just vote for the genocidal cop it will fix our problems, I promise. It will be different this election, just trust me.

Y’all can have fun playing moral high ground playing the same old lines every election like a broken record. Waste your time playing politics and voting for the lesser evil. For me, if its a choice between two evils, I think I’d rather not pick.

If you keep voting for the lesser evil rather than destroying this fucked system, eventually your choices will be between a fascist and a fascist. Y’all would rather waste time delaying the inevitable, rather than working to disempower and destroy these exploitative and oppressive systems.
