  • The easiest way to survive Kristal Nacht 2: Electric Boogaloo is to get outta there before it happens. Stockpiling some food and “hunkering down” isn’t gonna keep you safe. Get outta there.

    What does America offer that you can’t get in Europe, Canada, Australia, etc?

    Brain drain the fascist state to a standstill.

    The earlier you do it, the higher your chances of being accepted into other countries. They may block American refugees if there becomes an exodus. It also means you have time to sell unnecessary items instead of possibly having to abandon them.

    Good luck, whatever path you choose.








  • That’s how anarchy has been portrayed by propaganda media since time immemorial because it scares those in power.

    Anarchy means without hierarchy. That’s it. Rules can still be agreed upon. It just means there isn’t one person, or group of elites, setting and enforcing the rules, but that they’re agreed upon by consensus.

    Just like hierarchical systems, there are many different variations of anarchy. Very few, if any, serious forms call for chaos and everything goes.

    Why? Because it would just lead straight back to Might is Right. “I’m bigger, stronger, more powerful than you, so I’ll make you do as I wish” isn’t a part of anarchist theory.

    Anarchism, despite seeming a simple concept on paper, is a difficult and complicated idea. Not because of the core principles but because humans and human behaviour are weird and hypocritical at times.

    “At least he is more civilised”

    To me, that makes him scarier. He can keep a mask on while stabbing you in the back. Trump, at least, is pretty open with who and what he is.

    Hindenburg and others thought Hitler wasn’t scary at first. They thought they could control him. Look how that turned out. Civilised doesn’t mean moral. It doesn’t mean he’ll do right for the county and people. It just means he knows his airs and graces when they’re needed.

    As Backlog said, there’s no such thing as a good Nazi.

    “Only a fool breaks the 2 second rule.”

    I was taught to repeat that phrase, at a normal steady pace, when I saw the back of their car go past something, to use as a marker (a signpost, the end of one of the lines on the road, whatever).

    If you finish the phrase after the front of your car has gone past the same marker, then you don’t have a big enough braking distance and need to ease off a bit.
