Byrnensorg🇮🇪🇺🇦🇵🇸🇬🇱🇩🇰byrnensorg@mastodon.ieOct 31, 2026, 3:09 PM@BrianJopek It's all too easy isn't it. Once the election happens the despotic regime will be at an end, said everyone just before being rounded up.

@byrnensorg Won’t be all too easy at all and honestly, I’m really not looking forward to the OTHER clusterfuck afterward but with this looking like the final opportunity to do anything at all about at least trying to change the course, I believe it’s worth a shot at doing so
Oct 31, 2026, 3:33 PMthe point of your sentiment, helplessness, is to aid fascism: cynicism is acceptance
you realize it, and aim to suppress the vote on purpose
or you don't realize it, and don't see how you serve fascism, but you do
you need to address the real world effect of your attitude, and change your attitude
🐦⬛Crow@pagan.plusOct 31, 2026, 5:34 PM@BrianJopek naive, but hopeful. doing more of the liberal pseudo democracy will not solve the problems it has caused so far. adding more water to the boat will not prevent it from capsizing. adding more flammable materials, unburnt, to a roaring fire, will not put it out.
eventually the answer will have to be, as it frequently has been, boys with rifles.
but, also, please vote.
Joe ❌👑not2b@sfba.socialOct 31, 2026, 6:18 PM@BrianJopek My father took one of those crap boats. He was supposed to land at Normandy on D Day but the boat was defective, fortunately he and his fellow soldiers didn't drown. So he arrived in France the next day. He was 21. A third of those who landed on D Day died that day, so the delay might be why I am here. I am proud to be the son of a violent anti fascist.

@not2b I had a great uncle who had his Sherman tank blown out from under him by a German 88 at Normandy not long after he and his crew got on the beach after leaving their LST. He survived the war and died about 40 years ago. I don’t think he’d be happy at all with what’s going on now
Krystynakrystyna@toad.socialOct 31, 2026, 10:42 PMFor sure it’s last call for democracy and I hope everyone has done their part with donating their time or money. The underfunded, outspent dems are still begging us every hour. Help them. And also do report, record any stupid shenanigans you see because the cheat like hell gang will try everything. Send info to social media. Independent journalists, MSM.
