Fascism is coming whether you like it or not. It is coming for Canada as it has around the world. Not standing up now ensures we will fall. It is not a time in the world to play nice regardless of the political situation, which is as useless here as it is south of the border. Voting is a fallacy you all prop up every chance you get even when it fails you repeatedly.
There will be backlash. We must resist it and endure. That is how change occurs.
These are based on showing people there is a better way, and in particular showing average people that the left is working for them.
And then there are ways that directly embolden fascism by senselessly cratering the lives of everyday people thereby driving the masses directly into the arms of the far right.
You can’t just disentangle overnight, unfortunately. And I’m sorry but if you don’t think backlash is something that can/should be mitigated by an effective strategy then you haven’t been paying attention.
A far more effective antidote to fascism is mutual aid.
What are you even talking about? Engagement in local politics and mutual aid is at historic lows, in large part due to the influence of US central social media corporations.

Seems to be working well so far.
