Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

No, it isn't. There is no world where fascists with nukes go peacefully. You can only conjure narratives that manipulate what constitutes violence and when the "revolution" is contained to perpetuate the liberal myth that imperialism can somehow be reformed into something righteous and non-violent.
Foundationally, the United States is the most destructive, brutal empire the world has ever seen even if just by merit of the technological moment it has existed in. People have fought it and died in the millions -- whether in the imperial periphery or in the metropole -- and the consequences of a world battered by its interests will be incalculable. If tomorrow the fascists and capitalists gave up for no reason and went "peacefully," the process leading up that would still be the most violent in history.
Liberals will call tree spiking violence when the only consequence is a damaged logcutter and an invasion peaceful so long as it abides by their interests. Violence was indispensable in the production of every device that would be used during a "peaceful" revolution in the US, and I doubt people who want a peaceful revolution in the US would fight and die for forced labourers anywhere in the global south who certainly don't have peace as a vector of resistance.
None of this is suddenly peaceful because white people are threatened more than they used to be and now have to worry about having to fight for themselves. I am so goddamn tired of seeing liberals show up to antifascist resistance acting like they know better.
