I am probably not the only one who is very depressed about the future. It looks like nothing is going to stop the rise of global fascism. In US, Trump seems to be able to absolutely anything and all the major states are controlled by at least semi-fascist groups and leaders.
In my own country, Finland, the story is the same as in many other European country; the far-right, fascist party is gaining huge support and left is divided to smaller groups of which non has any serious possibility to challenge the rise of fascists. It's true that now things are still relatively good, but after next parliamentary elections? Fascists will most likely take the power then.
And what should I do? I've already tried marching, direct action, publishing antifascist content and art. I literally feel that there is nothing I can do. Especially when so many people just seem to be passively watching things go down. Most of the people I know refuse to even believe that fascism exists, even when it's staring them directly into the eyes. In Finland, anarchists and antifascist are a small group hated by pretty much everybody. People here think that anarchists are just terrorists and that antifa is as bad as the neo-Nazis. It's very hard to get anybody to join us.
So, what can a comrade do? And I can't help but think that we have already lost the game. Fascist forces are just so much more powerful. I'm afraid that t'll be just like in the 1930's.
EDIT: and because I'm trans, I'm seriously afraid. The hate towards LGBTQ-people is rising.
