        That is factually untrue.

        Many americams do turn to facism and that is currently happening in america with frightening speed.

        But many american have also fought and died for what little rights we have in america, such as the 8hr. And the sit down strike.

        Many were anarchist, communists and other socalist such as lucy parsons.

          Those communists have been hunted to extinction, they are dead. Although some tatters of the old are beginning to rise again, they have little chance of forming a good resistance to the US in the belly of the beast.

          I am an optimist on almost everything else, but there is no hope for america

              Just "chilling with communists" doesn't do anything. Have you heard of Fred Hampton? Black Panthers? CPUSA? All murdered and torn apart until it was no longer recognizable!

              Maybe if there was some sign of a marxist movement arising out of dissatisfaction in the US, I would reconsider, but all that exists are a bunch of commies "chilling" in their own little cliques of nobodies.

              We're going to do our best, but know that the empire will only fall once its subjects and vassals have been destroyed.

                There are black panthers alive in prison. Still participateing in class action. Shows how much you know.

                You've been about 50% wrong about almost everything you have stated. I can really give a shit if you will " reconsider."

                Also when i said i chill with communist i was pointing out that they exist in america. Im not posting my resistance activities on a federate network.

                  Your thinking is stupid lifestyle individualism. There are some former Panthers around, and a tiny number haven't even sold out, but the Black Panther Party is long gone and without being organized, their activism cannot be more than charity work.

              us existing isn't gonna overthrow capitalism is I think the point. we may help put the pieces back together, but Its more likely for the revolution to come to us than start within us, I think

      Yeah, that's unfortunately not likely. Revolutionary potential is way stronger in the periphery of the imperial order, not in the core.
