True, but the other option is a waste of time.
“Why of course the people don't want war. Why should some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people don't want war: neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or fascist dictorship, or a parliament or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peace makers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”
How else are you supposed to galvanize your vision for something better in accordance with nature? He wasn't perfect, nothing is, but he was heading in the right direction with selfless intentions.

I would say peacefully but with the capacity for self defense. I'm not absolutely against collectivism so long as there is choice, not coercion. I am absolutely against authoritarian states because they use aggressive force. I don't have a simple easy answer such as (((they))) hate fascism therefore we must become fascist to fight them. The Germans tried it last century and got smacked down hard and there was more sympathy for fascism back then.
I'm pretty convinced we live in a fascistic oligarchy and it demonstrates the problem. Any dissent is crushed, truth doesn't matter. You think fascism would work because people like you would be in charge and could sort this bloody mess. But we have fascism, its just that the people in charge are using it against you and it chaffs without remedy. You're like a commie saying that wasn't real communism, this time it will work .
I advocate for constitutional republicanism. The fact that the US constitution is being shredded, death by a 1000 cuts, shows me that that is (((their))) true enemy. I would be even happier with a republic based around ethnicity and a strong bill of rights.
