Except that fascists will invent excuses whenever there isn't violence at all.
Example: Portland, Los Angeles, literally anywhere with an American gestapo presence.
I believe it is worth combatting their surveillance. Our liberty is not a given but needs to be taken. What is stupid is holding too much defeatism.
Mutual aid, as you said, is good; but it should not be the only resort. Against fascism, everything should be considered a valid resort.
True, but why make their jobs easier? The more propaganda they have to produce over reality means more truth slips through.
Gonna just have to agree to disagree on that. I feel capable of privacy measures intended to stop basic corporate adware surveillance, but the idea that we as individuals can battle the tools and capabilities of well funded nation state with agencies like the NSA and CIA involved seems to smack of hubris to me.
I agree, but I don't think you're going to be able to organize and mobilize the citizens against an authoritarian takeover without parallel systems being set up first. Otherwise fascist disaster capitalists will just use their control of such systems against us.
