You need to look at what has successfully caused the overthrow of dictators over the centuries, consider what tools and options you have available to you and act accordingly.
Given Agent Orange is speed running through the Hitler playbook for removing democratic institutions I agree with the other poster, it is near enough certain that the mid terms won’t be free&fair. They will definitely be rigged.
Your chance of fixing this at the ballotbox is near enough zero. You need to look at what has worked (Maidan revolution for example) and what didn’t work (resistance in Germany to Hitler) then decide on what you can do.
If you elect to pin your hopes on a democratic resolution to a fascist dictator you will be disappointed.
In two years time we likely will not.
In the same sense that we still had a Titanic while its stern was hundreds of feet in the air.
You are playing yesterday’s game. You need to recognize the dire danger in front of you, and prepare and act accordingly.
I disagree, which is why I’m interested to hear what “today’s game” consists of.
You’re saying “resistance demonstrations”, right. Is that it?

Okay but do you have any suggestions other than “do research”.
Cause I’m pretty sure that’s not going to work in any scaled way, like voting would.
So far the people who don’t seem to be onboard with preparing for midterms have suggested:
neither of those seem particularly well-formed or understood. So I’m back to saying we should prepare for the midterms unless someone can elaborate.
So basically you’re too lazy to do a bit of reading and make a plan ? You want someone to lay it out for you ?
Either take control of your life or don’t whine that “nobody told me” when you get sent to a camp.
Continuing to do what is proven not to work is insanity. “Maybe this time it will work”
I’m not am American, I’m not going to tell you what the right course of action is, nor am I about to do your planning for you.
Are you looking to change this or just to be able to say “well I tried” after putting in limited ineffectual effort ?
Be aware, all the passive political campaigners in Germany ended up in camps or shot. It’s not the “safe” option you seem to think it is
No fucking shit. I wondered if the useless suggestions were an artifact of ignorant self-righteousness.
What country are you from.
If you’re not bright enough to work it out yourself then I guess that’s not your fault, many of your countrymen seem to be, here’s a good thread
