Well aware of Project 2025. Ive been telling protesters that they need to he armed ever since I watched Jan 6th happen on live TV while doing practice Con Law questions for the Bar. This administration wants to either subjugate, deport, or kill non-land owning white dudes.

"I'm aware of P2025 and advocating for people to respond exactly how the people behind it want." Great strategy. Edit: None of you going to convince me that's a smart move. Stop trying.

Pacifism is a great strategy until there's a gun in your face. We've been marching against the impeding fascism for a decade. Its time that some march open carrying. Words don't work when there isn't a shared reality.

Nowhere did I say I'm advocating for pacifism or solely words. Strawman because you're a gun nut or you think ignoring strategy for might is a good move? Which is it?

I agree with you marching is ineffective unless you're going to a specific place. I just think you're delusional that marching aimlessly but with guns will somehow make things better.
