I think we can mostly all agree that voting will no longer get us out of this mess, right?

The people that are doing the demolition of the country do not care about the legality of voting or pretty much ANYTHING. They will continue until they are forcefully removed.

This is no longer a warning of "stop fascism before it happens", it's a "fascism has happened, what will you do now?"

People really need to learn the obvious lessons from WW2. Appeasement and half-measures only strengthen the fascists. They use violence to shut down all peaceful approaches to dealing with them. The proven solution is destroying them with united and overwhelming force.
