   Hard things beget adjacent hard things. Being pushed by fascism is also being pushed to be fascist. To do its work.

   Resistance shrinks what anyone can care about. Whiteness works to ensure one's cares harden them into a tool its violence can work with.

   To my sweet siblings in left and liberal whiteness: Feel this being done to you. En la fedi. At work. In politics. By friends. By family. Know what you're supposed to care less about.

   Lots of machines can kill fascists. Caring can kill fascism.

     The opposite of harm and destruction isn't resistance or building. It's mending and care.

     So, I guess what I'm saying is, don't let the bastards decide what you harden yourself to, or what you can care about. They can make it expensive, and they will make it more and more so, but they can't choose for you.
