No I’m not catastrophising.

The world is slowly lurching towards a fully fascist led America, India, Hungary, Russia, Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Argentina.

Instead people are either ignorant or blaming “wokeism”* for their problems.

I have no clue what to do and this is literally a car crash in slow motion.

I’m despondent because I’m going to be crushed under the boot when the time comes and my morals get in the way of my survival instinct.

Humans are repeating the mistakes of the past. It’s just so anxiety inducing.

*Woke is a useless term promulgated by fascists to dog whistle the things they really want to hate - feminism, socialism, LGBTQIA+, immigration, brown/black people, equality and diversity.

    I wonder what you’re doing about the imminent world war that’s so brave and non-bootlicking.

      Speaking up and calling out fascist behavior. Not spending my money on businesses that promote fascists. Voting. Keeping my long barrel in good condition, may it never need to be used.

      Soap, ballot, jury, and cartridge boxes, in that order.

        So posting on lemmy and boycotting businesses you don’t like. Awesome.

        Hey guys, don’t worry about the future, this guy will totally stop fascism. We’re fine.

          Better than trying to lick my way to the center of a boot while making disingenuous jabs on Lemmy.

              Even for a bootlicker, you seem especially bitter, sarcastic, and downtrodden. Might help to find someone licensed to talk that out. Ain’t healthy keeping it bottled up, and spewing vitriol on Lemmy doesn’t help anyone.

                Are you talking about me or yourself now? Seams like you intended this for me but you actually perfectly described your comments.

                    Really? Please, point out the vitriol in my comments. You’re the one talking about licking boots all the time. You’re the abusive one here. (Of course I don’t expect you to realize it now, you don’t strike me a s someone capable of admitting they were wrong)
