ID: photo of a dark road through some woods, in the lower right is text saying “The road to fascism is lined with people telling you to stop overreacting.”

It is only a matter of time before pigs or some paramilitary pig-wannabes perpetrate a massacre of protestors in the US.
When (not if) they do, watch out… it will be open-season on anybody that’s marginalized or slightly left than Heinrich Himmler.
I sure hope you all are ready for this.
Stop over reacting, this is your mental health, no one else is having this strong of a reaction, you’re not seeing reality, you’re a black American not an immigrant so you’re safe, other minorities are not afraid, what makes you so special that you think you’re a target?
I’ve spent the last week being told these things and more by people who have admitted they’re unafraid because they’re white. These same people that I thought had my back and said they understood for the last 20 years. I’m literally questioning if I should prepare for the worst without my family or check myself into a mental hospital because everyone around me is telling me to wait and see what the white nationalists do. There is no imminent threat to myself.
This whole scenario is solidifying my belief that we’re just alone in the world and if you’re dark skinned no one is going to protect you here. My white family members and friends are calling me one of the good ones every fucking day but think because of different wording it doesn’t mean the same goddamn thing. I’m so fucking pissed and disaappinted. I’m waiting to die or get arrested while everyone else is going to Starbucks and talking about future vacation plans.

I’m Jewish. I’ve told my family for years, especially the young ones, “we’re always second. When they get through the people that don’t look like them, they’ll come for us, who look like them but somehow aren’t”
They still look at me like I’m crazy… For now. I hope they continue to
To be fair, so is the road to normalcy.
Change a few words around and this meme could be about Q-anon people during the height of the COVID pandemic yelling about FEMA camps. Or, it could be about people freaking out about the supposed 2012 “Maya apocalypse”.
Just because someone is reacting strongly doesn’t mean they’re necessarily right. Although, in this case, the fascism in the US is pretty obvious to everyone.
Bullshit false equivalency. The difference comes down to critical thought. The things you listed are just ridiculous conspiracy theory BS that falls apart every time at the slightest criticism.
