Depending on the ethnicity of the person you replied to, drawing attention to themselves in any form of protest may very well bring an immediate life or death situation. Us pale folk need to be stepping up, and good on those that already are.
You think fighting for your rights is risk free? Bloodless? it has never been that way.
If you want change, you have to save yourselves, resist and fight for that freedom, just like your great grand parents and older did during union riots or veteran rallys. You think the people under nazi occupation often threw them bloodlessly, no. But I’m sure you expect others to do it for you.
This user wants left leaning people getting shot and bombed until there’s no one left to push back against Trump (and US fascism) in any form. That’s what Trump wants, he’d love for the opportunity to finally declare nation wide martial law, get rid of any sense of term limits, and kill all who rise against him. There’s a reason mass deportation of citizens is part of Project 2025 - it’s to get rid of the opposition entirely.
Their comment vastly underestimates the depravity of the modern US government, who has already bombed and disappeared citizens. A huge, violent uprising might make the fascist government flinch for a moment, but then they’d remember that they have the most funded military in the world multiple times over and just go to town with reaper drones.
The only chance US residents have is through subtle, quiet sabotage, something that wouldn’t be reported on internationally until the damage was already done. Or, a military coup, which most US residents wouldn’t be able to initate themselves.
If this user wants a bunch of asylum seeking US residents escaping to Canada, along with whatever left leaning opposition remains dead, then their comment makes sense.
I wonder why this user isn’t rising up against their own government who most definitely trades and supports the US in certain ways. I wonder why they aren’t violently fighting the rise of global fascism, which is certainly affecting their country. I wonder if they are blind to what’s happening with fascism in their own country because they are hyperfixated on shitting on the oppressed for “not doing anything” elsewhere. I wonder if they are counting on billionaire-owned media organizations to tell them what’s happening in the US, missing the fact that those organizations intentionally avoid reporting on resistance movements.
Your wishing death upon yourselves for not fighting for your right to live the way you had been, waving a no king sign around and pretending like you did something is not fighting, that performative bull rap is just that.
Also, “moral highground” are you fucking stupid, your debating morals while your rights are getting stripped away and you sit their thinking “look at this guy with the soapbox” when I’m telling you if you don’t fight for yourselves, why should anybody help you.
Actually explain it, why should I help someone who won’t help themselves, and no, going out and “protesting” is not fighting for your rights, the federal Gove doesn’t give a shit so this action is POINTLESS.
I say “moral highground” because its easy to sit behind your cpu screen and say people just need to “grow a pair” as if it’s just that easy. As if chastizing people at a no kings protest is any more effective than holding a sign at one. Extremely naive and simplistic view of the world if you think its that easy to just overthrow the government with the biggest military industrial complex in the world.
Im assuming youre not American? Why dont you come over and show us how its done then? You make it sound so easy you should be to get it all done in just a few days, a week max.
And it will stay that way till you grow a pair of balls.
This exact mindset is how you end up under the yoke and frankly you deserve it for not fighting against it.

This article was an eye-opener for me :

Odd strategy wishing death on the oppressed but go off or whatever. How does it look from that “moral highground” of yours?
