If they actually gave a fuck about fascism like they claim they'd be doing real shit with real people. Out in the streets leading the charge like the leaders they're supposed to be. At most you get a speech and "good luck with all that stuff I'm off to the next comfy event I have scheduled"
Instead they "try" with bullshit hearings - that only serve as sound bite harvesting sessions - and bullshit bills - that they know won't amount to anything anyway. They only care that their select faction of rich fucks aren't the ones benefit the most of all the rich fucks. They only care that the bombs, cages, trampling of rights, and preventable deaths aren't under their command.
If they didn't secretly love fascism, they'd be out telling people how to arm themselves and build solidarity in their communities. They'd be telling people how to protect themselves and those around them from the violence of the state. Instead it's a lot of "trust in the system and make sure you vote again ❤️🏳️🌈✊✊🏿 oh yeah and be back to work on Monday, we got more bombs to drop"
These aren't your folks, my dudes.
