cacerolazo (n.) – earsplitting demonstration where millions bang on their pots and pans.
Used by intelligent people who don’t attend the super bowl, and know fascism
when they see it raise its ugly horns.

fascism (n.) – "right wing" (Barbara Lee), "mistruths" (Nancy Pelosi), "cover-up"
(Robert Reich).
Try the F word.
F-A-C-S-I-S-M. Say it. Say it so your mouth gets used to saying
it. Form the syllables one by one to make it easier. Try.
FA FA
FA FA That’s right.
Try again Fascism.
FA SH SH SH SH (like in Shut up). Say it. (don’t shut
up)
FA – SH –I (soft i) i. i.
as in itchy.
FA-SH-i- ZM(as in zoom without
the oo’s because it comes on quickly when
you’re not looking.)
No. Not FASCIzoom. Fascism.
Try again. It’s not hard.
Except fascism is a bitch:
kids in cages, Muslims banned, LGBTQ hit upon relentlessly, women trashed, high
crimes and misdemeanors in high places, asylum seekers excluded, correctional plantations, Iranian
citizens assassinated (by drone), American citizens
assassinated (by drone). Tents for the housing crisis. Troops deployed to the Russian border (not
“humanitarian aid”).
If you feel like a f(asicst)
hydrant, get out there with your pots and pans. And your ear plugs, but not
your head in the sand.
You’ve nothing left to lose
but your chains.
