That said, non-violence is not a long-term solution to fascism (obvious to most of us I imagine). The US people just aren’t in a position to do much else. Any real resistance would be crushed at the moment because the numbers are simply too small.

Ya, I think the real issue is that the silly is the vanguard at the moment. The fash are mobilizing at a level that realistically require us to have guerilla orgs out there ready for when they escalate and we very much do not seem prepared in that way.
