"If fascism takes over in the U.S., where will we go?" Nowhere. If that were to happen, fascism would be everywhere, sooner or later – we're in a global fight against fascism, bigotry, & hate right now. We need to stand up & fight, not flee to "blue states" or Canada or a utopia that doesn't exist.

My head tells me you are right, but my heart wants to flee the hate.

Moving to blue states is totally legit. Women deserve to have health care and all people deserve to be free from fear.

For sure, but many can't move, for a variety of reasons. And if all liberal minded people who are able to move out of such states do so, they're abandoning marginalized people who are stuck there being oppressed.

The sooner people understand that, "YES, this is happening here", the sooner we can get the majority into the Resistance.

There were two protests here in Canada during the pandemic that shut down Ottawa and The Ambassador bridge in Windsor, Ont. The number of Trump flags on display was disturbing. Our shared border is not impervious to extreme ideology. We have our own fight to battle.

We have no alternative.
We must vote.
We must vote for the right people.
We must vote for the right issues.
We must protest in support of all just causes.
Not someone else or over there, our nation is everywhere and all of us are we the people

Even Canada is no utopia. We are fighting our own fight against fascism here because many of our citizens seek to mimic the fascist behaviour of our extremist neighbours to the south.

If it spreads further it is a choice. Ignore the narrative put out by the msm (owned by those with the agenda) They are out of balance. Hoarding is an illness and the people who have more money and power than is healthy requires an intervention not more if what they are collecting .Need Therapy!

Doesn't make much sense to be anti-fascist from a distance . . .

It always pisses me off when people say stupid shit like "I'm moving to Canada".
Canada doesn't want you, most likely. I don't blame them either.

Not to mention that we are battling our own fight against fascists here in Canada. We can't rest on our laurels.

I just said this to family/friends who keep asking why I don’t move back to Canada. I’m 🇨🇦 🇺🇸. First and foremost it will be no different there. Also it’s expensive as hell. I like my little patch of blue here in Fl and willing to fight to keep it this way.

We need to remember we are voting for the entire planet; The survival of all democracies and the biological survival of the planet. As a large global power we influence the rest of the world and we ought to behave like responsible adults. None of this is hyperbole- tell your friends and VOTE !!

Indeed, this is the kind of problem that running away never solved. We drop or they drop. And regardless of which one does, this battle will be fought again in a later time. In the meantime, let's win this one, shall we?

This might an unpopular opinion, but my husband and I moved from a very red state to a blue one. We just could not justify paying taxes to a conservative red state.
We moved from Indiana. The legislation is backwards there and not moving forward at all.

Here in Ohio we just took a giant step toward restoring democracy. The nonpartisan citizens redistricting mission constitutional amendment petitions have been approved & will hit the streets shortly. Expect a flood of lies from the right which likely won't work as well as they did last time.

One of my best friends from Stow has volunteered her time to the effort. Go Ohio! Time to take back your state!

I agree. My husband and I fantasize about leaving if the orange one gets elected, but in reality I know we're here to stay. I wouldn't want to leave family and friends.

And in. Europe. As a disgusted American it upsets me to no end that fascism is infecting “more sane” places like Canada and Europe. Western democracy is at risk everywhere and I hope it’s a wake up call to ALL people who care about democracy. How easily the aggrieved bigots are bought.

Wow. Thought at first this was an Alex Jones project — this basically echoes him. So I looked it up & it's a dictator-loving, Putin-worshipping far "left" horseshoe conspiracy site. And viciously anti-Semitic, it's clear.

Do you believe that you are safe from fascism in your “blue” state?

In an authoritarian fascist country, there are no "blue states," no parties, obviously no functional voting, no democracy & no Constitution (Constitution is already basically non-functional with the 6-3 rightwing takeover of SCOTUS). Enforced with military power/violence. That is TFG's plan for 🇺🇸

As The Eagles wrote, "There is no new frontier, we have got to make it here." The challenges are a bit different and more ever present than the 1970's though.

I agree with you. I have a number of friends who are talking about moving to another country. One of them is going around, saying Biden‘s gonna lose Biden‘s gonna lose and I think that this possibility of getting German citizenship is really making her arrogant.

Don't want to be the bearer of bad news for your friend but AFD which is an extreme right-wing political party is currently leading in the polls in Germany. Extremism is everywhere. We can definitely win in next year's election. We just have to work hard to earn it.
