      If the terrorists have the biggest military in the world, control over all major digital services, a secret service that knows when you last have pooped AND have enough force for a literal occupation already on your territory… well… things get more complicated

        We have nukes. We can set them off should they invade. Better nuclear war than fascist rule.

          Well, here we differ: I will happily live under a fascist ruler if the alternative is dying in (nuclear-) fire.

          I suspect this is something you learn if you grow older, have family… and have witnessed actual combat…

            Mate. Fascists put everyone they hate in camps and torture them to death. Better nuclear war as that is quick and relatively painless.

              Mate, it’s only a problem if you are a member of the groups the traditional fascist hates, sooo…

                Once they’ve finished with these groups they’ll move on to other groups and continue whittling down their ingroup until there is no one left.

                Also nice job showing that minority groups are an acceptable price to pay for your cowardice.

                  Well, it worked out pretty well for my grandparents, so I am not that concerned

                  This would also apply for anybody born in the “developed world” if you think a bit about it

                    “Well, it worked out pretty well for my grandparents, so I am not that concerned”

                    That’s cause the Nazis were defeated.
