      Society doesn’t do shit… They take it like obedient dogs they are

      This will enforced by the government and at a gun point if needed.

        Anything the society allows their government to do, it bears responsibilty for. Doesn’t matter if your average citizen takes an active role. If they don’t take an active role in resisting, or at least sub-verting or sabotaging, they don’t need or deserve your excuses.

            I mean, extending it down to the individual level for every detail of law is a bit of a stretch, but my point was that the actions of government are a consequence of the actions or inaction of society-at-large. Individuals who want to distance themselves from the actions of a fascist government and still count themselves part of that jurisdiction’s society should take some sort of action, even anonymously.

            If they are to be counted as victims, it serves no-one for them to pretend that main-stream society(or society beyond whatever group they identify with) is blameless or a solid ally versus that government.

            “Society” as a concept is more prone to excluding those without power or influence; It de facto includes those with the means to steer government.

              I don’t disagree with the basic premise of personal responsibility but that terming has american political connotations so I prefer to frame as direct action.

              So yeah every adult is responsible for taking direct action to resist and obstruct exploitation of the working class.

              If enough people did direct action and upgraded that to act in solidarity with each other. It would take like 20-30% of adult population to start rolling back some of the abuse.

              But even this framing is found to be inflammatory onhere on reddit you get banned for it.
