The consolidation of fascism now rapidly going on is the most serious crisis that has faced people in the U.S. in our lifetimes. It is hard to overstate how much depends on all those who see what we face taking up the Call issued by Refuse Fascism for massive, millions-strong demonstrations in DC on November 5.
“The Fall of the Trump Fascist Regime” lays out what must happen:
…Beginning November 5, the one-year anniversary of Trump's election, flood DC in nonviolent protest. Surround the White House. Surround the Capitol. Surround the illegitimate fascist-packed Supreme Court. Come back again and again. Across the country, refuse to comply. Every person of conscience, millions of us together, grind the machinery of the fascist regime to a halt…
Why is this audacious and necessary Call so critically important?
Because Donald Trump and his MAGA minions are daily and radically transforming this country into a nuclear-armed… openly white supremacist, crudely patriarchal and brutally xenophobic… Nazi nightmare. Institutions crumble one by one, laws and rights are mowed down and mocked. This utterly illegitimate regime is moving with both desperation and determination, and with great speed, to lock down and consolidate its rule. We have to step up to a whole other level of opposition.
2026 elections? You’ve got to be kidding. Look what Trump has done in just seven months. Do you really think this juggernaut will slow down? Even now Trump is rigging these elections with outrageous gerrymandering, assaults on and threats to jail Democrat politicians, and rule-changing. He is deploying troops to Democrat-voting states and bulking up ICE, his strike force of masked thugs. And can you seriously expect that these fascists will accept an election they lose?
There is NO SOLUTION to this fascism, other than (and without) such a massive mobilization. This provides THE ONLY CHANCE to actually remove—drive out—this regime from power.
We are not talking about just another mass demonstration of people around the country—important and positive as those were in the first months of this regime. Once again: We are talking about what MUST BE the biggest, most determined nonviolent mass mobilization/assembly in the capital in American history. THE STAKES ARE TOO HIGH FOR ANYTHING LESS.
Finally, in his social media message @BobAvakinOfficial REVOLUTION #118, “This system has brought forth Trump/MAGA fascism: People, in their millions, must put an end to this fascist regime—NOW—before it is too late!” Bob Avakian goes deeply into how, “the fundamental cause of this fascism is the fact that this system of capitalism-imperialism is running up against its limits.” We revcoms are working to make revolution to overthrow this system and get beyond this madness, bringing a whole new world into being. On that basis we are throwing fully into uniting ALL who can be united from divergent political perspectives to carry through the fight to actually drive out this regime and, as we do so, carrying forward “principled discussion and debate about what is represented by this Trump regime and what it means that it is fascism, what is the fundamental source of this fascism and the fundamental solution to the terrible situation in this country and the world as a whole.” (from Bob Avakian message REVOLUTION #118)
