What I do is:

  • Don't click on or share fascist or demotivating content, promoting or naming them in any way.
  • Whenever you see a fellow comrade using their stuff - and you know they'd reject fascism -, privately inform them to use different content.
  • Share more centrist and left-wing stuff with everyone. Not just politics, also just relaxing stuff.
  • With those inclined to fascism, share only non-polarising, boring content, and don't share their shit. Make them feel welcomed.
  • Block fascists from reacting on you, but don't block them from seeing your content. After all, exposure is key to deradicalisation and striving for the wellbeing of all.
  • Don't use Big Tech wherever possible. Use anti-authoritarian, left-wing, people-owned media. Only use big tech to get people off from there.
  • Vouch for the good people to join trade unions, strike and protest, to join a left party, participate in direct and mutual aid, and those willing enough, to train to be able to defend.
  • Don't share real names with each other. Use an anonymously paid VPN, cover yourself and your tracks.
  • And at the end of day, be kind for yourself - have some self-care. :3

    I'm beginning to think our entire society is foundationally evil and uses us for something that isn't our true nature.

    It’s pedantic, but I wouldn’t blame society as a whole but the few psychos at the top of the pyramid (e.g. tech billionaires, corrupt politicians, etc)

    Most of society (+99%) just wants to have their needs met, and when given the proper support are good people. The elite bastards spew so much propaganda and fund things against our interests that a lot of people can’t be their best selves.

    But... Exactly... Why do people still fund in.

    It's Stockholm syndrome.

    In their defence they were born into it, and their parents and all their peers do too.

    Most people aren't exposed to the content of people who "got out" because it doesn't show up on commercial platforms or get discussed at company barbeques.
