Not a bad idea. Ive been saying this for years, if the left embraced the 2nd amendment they would win every election. Its contradictory to vote for legislation and politicians that only benefit the rich and powerful while espousing for the proletariat. A government that does not fear its people will always become tyrannical, fascist, you name it.
Organise local communities via education. Explain the current problems we’re facing, and advocate on behalf of the community for what we need.
Collectively bring those concerns to local politicians and push for those changes. Get the candidates representing those changes elected locally.
Get this to snowball and we can get state representatives that advocate for these changes.
Further snowballs and it can get to the national level. Eventually, the federal level.
These changes will take decades. What we do now won’t help us. But we will help our future children’s children. We may be able to save democracy and the collapse of the U.S.
If we can’t organise, the U.S. is doomed. Don’t despair. Grieve for your country, then get radicalised and angry. Use that anger to fight the system. But we need representatives, perhaps even politicians, to instruct the general population how to fight back by organising rather than leaving hopeless and disenfranchised people to give into rage and respond with violence.
Tl;dr - Get involved with local political communities to advocate for progressive policies. Community brings concerns to local politicians. Local politicians platform for these changes and we fight to get them elected. Continue this process of snowballing to get district elections, state elections, and eventually federal elections. The only way we can get there is with progressive policies that focus on the problems of the working class, and working hard to unite the working class because the owner class will exert all their resources to divide and disenfranchise us. They need us more than we need them.
“Organize” and do what?
Form militias I guess? That’s what the 2A yokels told us to do right? Use the amendment to prevent a tyrannical government.
I don’t understand how people think this is going to go any other way. It’s that or fascism.

When you put it that way it sounds… Unpossible
