    I mean, it’s win-win for the assholes.

    People don’t fight back: they get deported. Win for nazis

    People fight back: Nazis use it as justification for further escalation

    At least defending yourself / the victims has a chance of saving them. Doing nothing won’t

      “The takeover will be bloodless if the left allows it to be.” I fear that escalation is going to be the only course of action to stop their criminal activity. You certainly can’t rely on the justice system any more.

      I wholeheartedly agree about fighting back. As someone who was bullied when younger, I fought back and hard. It didn’t stop the bullying, but it certainly got some of the bullies to think twice, so that I wasn’t fighting all the bullies at once.

      And therein lies another problem; you fight one authoritarian government and maybe succeed in removing it, but then you’re fighting other foreign ones waiting on the sidelines, just ready to swoop in. It’s not looking good for any of the good guys at this point…
