I know I am in a bit of a dark place, but I need a place to doompost. I am slowly realizing that fascism is unbeatable as an ideology, ugh and where to start?

First off, conservatives remain unbeatable in the culture wars despite being the aggressor. All I ever wanted was to be allowed to mind my own business in peace, but the masses always need to target and harass me just because I'm different. Every day I am constantly told by the media, by the internet cool kids, and just from normal people that "Liberal bad, conservative good" ad nauseum. That I should be treated like dirt for not being white or straight. Sure, you'll see the odd pride flag, but that is pretty much social suicide and is an easy way to get marked as a pariah.

Speaking of culture wars, fascists clearly have the people on their side. Twitter, and most of social media is completely unusable because it's a hog hellhole. Don't even bother trying to talk to them, no matter how many scientific studies prove the races are equal or whatever, I've found that they don't want to hear it, they'll think of a smart-alecky insult to call you, and they automatically win. . IRL is full of hogs too, any time politics gets involved, it's only the CHUDs that talk. I don't talk because I really don't want to get beat up.

  • Finally, we are totally outmatched by them. They have been stockpiling weapons, they have been training for decades before I was ever born. Look, I'm just an absolute scrub, I don't really like my odds.

EDIT: I've taken out a good deal of the unproductive defeatism.

    Worms we may be- but everything dies. When fascism dies, us "worms" will gnaw it down to the bones and leave those bones to become dust.

    What use are their bombs when they would have to raze their own homes to the ground to get rid of us? What use are their police when they won't even wear a paper mask during a plague? What use are their sycophantic senators when their sheer greed cancels out their ability to actually commit atrocities in the first place? Beautiful entropy eats away at every vein and capillary in the fascist body politic. Yes, we will suffer, but they'll suffer more at their own hands. All we have to do is survive, and it doesn't matter if you crush one thousand worms- one thousand more will find you eventually.

    Take it from 50's China, when they were still recovering from a century of poverty and colonialist subjugation. They looked miserable then, but now they're the actual most powerful country on the planet- not simply pretending to be powerful by being a bully like the USA is now. They knew all they had to do was survive.

    We can be those survivors, too. Come with us.
