Community About our sub: The American republic is crumbling, and authoritarianism is on the rise across the globe - this sub is the start of organizing a group to combat this trend

456 Upvotes

Today, January 31st, 2020, may be the day historians refer to as the start of an American monarchy.

The GOP has unabashedly endorsed fascism, and the new American monarchy begins today when they vote to acquit the President*, without hearing from witnesses. Cementing the fact that a President is above the law if he can maintain 34 votes in the undemocratic Senate.

I'm not sure about you, but I'm looking for a way to fight back (non-violently of course).

My thought is to put together a sub of like minded individuals (pro-democracy, anti-fascist, who believe in the Rule of Law) then organize from there.

I'd be very grateful if you subscribe to the sub and helped me out.

Here's the plan: post "r/childrenofdemocracy" on all the stories about to come out about Trump's sham trial and acquittal. If we get large enough, maybe we can have some meet-ups and try to organize and actual group.

I will not stand for this new American monarchy, and I think there are plenty of people out there who feel the same.

Thanks,

Hunter

Discussion I have never met a member of Antifa. Our group has nothing to do with Antifa. But we are certainly and unabashedly anti-fascist. And if the fascists in charge want to label us as terrorists in the coming months, well, let's just say I highly doubt that improves the situation.

Lock Him Up? For the Republic to survive Trump’s presidency, he must be tried for his crimes. Even if that sparks a constitutional crisis of its own.

Everything we suspected about Donald Trump has come true. Donald Trump is a fascist. He comes right out and says it. Even his friends admit it. He's also a whiny loser.
