A stable paycheck to believe otherwise is the most convincing. "I would do something, but I can't risk losing my job" is the most common excuse for allowing tyranny.

Yeah? You and what army? Seriously tho I'm looking to join.
I know right, ML Tankies are so much worse than fascist capitalist Nazi's, they sure spoil everything amirite (watches a capitalist do a nazi salute at a presidential inauguration). Lets continue to ignore politics and see where this goes.
That's what I thought.
I'd like to believe that there are good cops out there that will be like "hey wait a minute" and when push comes to shove they'll be some of the greatest allies of the people, who protects the people and not just the powerful. I'd like to believe.

Have a BBQ with them and team up. - Police and Fascists
I don't understand your excitement. Why do you say 'PLEASE' to watching Proud Boys and local police having a friendly BBQ with eachother?
It's also worth mentioning the consolation in the fact that fascism always fails, eats itself alive, and collapses. It's inherently unstable and unsustainable. It can collectivize a lot of power real fast, and do a lot of damage as a result, but it never lasts. Human beings need to cooperate, and hyper competitive individualism creates false loyalty and betrayals, minimal trust, minimal cooperation. Great pains and efforts, and the use of their power, is always spent trying to fight against human nature to maintain their order. Human nature always prevails.
Dickface is more accurate.
