Period.
If you are pro-capitalism, you are Right Wing.
There is no pro-capitalist Left. That's a polite fiction in the US that no one can afford any longer as the ecosystem is actually collapsing around us."

ID: 3 images from a cage fight.
In the top image there is a fight going on inside the cage which is tagged "LGBT+ spaces", outside of the cage is a fighter looking in, tagged "bigot".
In the middle image we see the outside fighter hanging off of the gate to the cage, trying to break the chains keeping it locked.
In the bottom image the outside fighter has got in to the cage, where another fighter is on their knees leaning on one hand, the bigot is shouting at them "STOP FORCING YOUR VIEWS ON TO ME!"

Amanda Jette Knox @MunroeBergdorf replies: "THIS. You owe no one a debate on who you are, ever. Not online. Not in person. Not in the media."
Definitely words to live by.
One of my most used quotes, in fact I used it earlier today, it's just so fucking accurate.
ID: 3 panel comic:
A surprised looking person pops in to existence on a floating rock surrounded by fire, next to the devil.
The person asks "wait a second-- why'd I end up in hell??"
The devil, now taking up the entire frame, replies: "because centrism enables fascism"
No need to apologise, and anyway, it's not like we're that far off, a matter of months, maybe a year or two behind the leaders in the fascist race to the bottom, so these issues are just as relevant..
Fortunately I'm not in the US, unfortunately fascism is rising everywhere, and arming myself here isn't really an option (I am also disabled and unable to personally safely handle a firearm), but I completely agree with you, and think all marginalised people who can arm themselves, should.
Sure, and absolutely, not everyone would need to actively be on the front line of an armed insurgency, but don't fool yourself - this regime, and the systems that enabled it, will never go anywhere without one.

My bad lol

Says the white moderate who was taught so by the establishment that doesn't want you to consider violent opposition to their violent oppression a viable option, which he absolutely did, as, without even the slightest sense of irony because the reality is going over their head in its entirety, they tell you they "agree with you in the goal you seek, but cannot agree with your methods of direct actionβ.
Perhaps educate yourself on MLK and what he actually stood for, rather than what those who murdered him for opposing them want you to know, before you so confidently spread misinformation and continue in the task of whitewashing his legacy.
