Tbh, I think it’s a little bit of both.

Look, either he *can't* reign in the Illinois cops, which has serious implications re: whether it's possible to step back from fascism without a revolution,

Or he *won't*, which has serious implications re: whether he means any of the shit he's saying

Seems like bad news one way or the other!!

This is why they will never be satisfied by political power, no matter how absolute and unchecked it is. They will always be perpetually aggrieved against the mere existence of cultural trends and civil society they dislike, and thus even more determined to use the government to stamp them out.

jamelle @jamellebouie.net · 4h

a key thing about vought — and all of these guys — is that they have a totally top down and hierarchical vision of the world. they believe that the cultural changes they hate can be turned off by destroying the federal government because they can’t imagine that they emerged bottom-up in society

Thomas Zimmer @thomaszimmer.bsky.social · 4h

What he’s railing against is a profound shift in culture, status… He’s obsessed with the idea that America is controlled by a leftist “ruling elite” - but “elite” isn’t defined socio-economically or by political power, it means something like: Getting to define “real America” and who gets to belong.

"Im not giving to anyone!"

Well, thats where you fucked up. Those who shunned community care used to be banned from those communities for a reason. Society is mutual care & Im done excusing apathy & disdain as not fascist.

You don't get a lil fascism as a treat & have marginalized folks trust you.

♿🏳️‍⚧️ Wylder needs HELP @wylder.bsky.social · Feb 23

Honestly, everyone who considers themself a leftist should be part of the mutual aid community. Whether you're giving, boosting, or making sure an emergency doesn't have a chance to turn into an eviction.

The more comfortable everyone is with shared needs the better off we all are. #MutualAid

♿🏳️‍⚧️ Wylder needs HELP @wylder.bsky.social · Feb 21

The stronger the mutual aid community gets the better off we all are. Adding another person in need doesn't weaken us, it spreads our reach.

Took us 10 days to fill in the $700 overdraft, I've been too sick to stay awake the whole time, we just made it into positive yesterday, & my partners care-taking job ends tomorrow. 😰

We have $30 to survive the month & I still desperately need emergency dental.

When the local dentist makes it seem like it might be easier to get an emergency passport & take a sudden trip to Mexico to get emergency dental work than it is seeking local care... 💀

This is starting to seem like the only option, which is... WTAF?

It should not be potentially easier to seek life-saving dental & health care by getting a expedited passport & making arrangements to go to another fucking country.

The more dangerous this is, the less willing folks seem to help me.

♿🏳️‍⚧️ Wylder needs HELP @wylder.bsky.social · Jul 21

I need someone to fund a dental treatment trip somewhere else for us and our dog. Help with rushed passports & vet stuff.

Get us out of this construction all around us, loud noises, stress. Get these abscess & both our dental issues taken care of.

Help us be safe and healthy enough to keep living.

Fascists win when folks abandon entire communities to invisible death because helping folks is "exhausting" & they don't want to be burdened with it.

Imagine what we could do once 'being a leftist' is commonly considered as community minded rather than being the 'most good person in the room' who is the 'most right about how things should go' & start helping their communities with meaningful actions... 👀

♿🏳️‍⚧️ Wylder needs HELP @wylder.bsky.social · Nov 1

Anyway, support libraries, wear a mask in public, & give Mutual Aid to those in need to actually fight fascism at a personal level.

We MUST keep folks fed, medicated & housed. Saving one another is the MOST important goal.

Don't let folks be unhoused & unfed when fascists are scooping us off the streets to dispose of for profit!

Mutual Aid IS community! The sooner folks figure that out the better off we'll be. 💜🙏

The idea that there's anything wrong with relying on 'mutual aid' (that thing that defines society, anthropologically?) is what's wrong with everything.

Because I rely on Mutual Aid & continue to ask for my own & other people's needs: I'm alive - & so are about 15 other people, just this last year.

What if instead of trying to restart the broken system that was genociding us we did LandBack & reparations, built sustainable healthy communities with Indigenous lead land stewardship, & taxes that paid for community needs like UBI, transport, housing, education, healthcare, disability & childcare?

This isn't something I'm happy to be right about but I'm glad folks are starting to realize this.

Stop pinning your hopes of salvation on the folks who've been at least partially responsible for all this bullshit.

WE protect us. Politicians must be leveraged into doing the right thing, every time.

♿🏳️‍⚧️ Wylder needs HELP @wylder.bsky.social · Sep 5

Perfectly reasonable folks are not using reason.

Dems who spent the last 20 years (ESPECIALLY the last 5) cutting every social program they could, to make sure cops were so extensively militarized they dont NEED to answer to anyone, are not going to save us.

We need to help each other survive now.
