US citizens continue doing next to nothing to resist the fascist takeover, continue to fork over their money and labor to complicit companies and get very comfortable in their chains because it's more convenient to do nothing.

Nope, not shocked in the slightest.

This is the most infuriating thing about it all. A couple of weekend parades?? Like are you fucking serious??! Defend yourselves!

"Defend yourselves" like there's any organization that is forming allowing us to do that. Like any group that gets more than 15-20 members won't be immediately shut down.

Care to expound past "defend yourselves" and come up with actually useful advice? It feels like the Kevin Costner version of Robin Hood where his friend "helps" him by telling him to punch harder and dodge faster.
