  What plan? The one where we let a fascist elect an idiot and then do a nazi salute?

    You need to have a plan that doesn’t involve the ballot box.

    This is - not as a coy bit, but for real - not a call to violence. You need to figure out how to build where you are right now, and stop asking for permission from a structure that is designed to oppress you. If you’re not sure where to start, Food Not Bombs is a solid first place to inquire.

        That’s great, that means you have an answer to your own question. I’m not trying to be snarky here, but that is literally the answer to what to do about Trump, even though his influence seems global and yours seems tiny, it’s the only way we can actually combat fascism.

        The thing that stops despots long term is the fact that the mass of people on the ground do not bow to them.
