So at this point (which should really read at any point in the preceding century) it becomes necessary to take any and all forms of dissent against the Conservatives, a far right mob that will use the full force of fascism to destroy the NHS, schools, welfare, environment etc
It is the natural decay of capitalism to see fascism take form in the embers of the past - we have been on this descent for decades, not just since Brexit, but to ignore the rhetoric behind Brexit as one of many right wing weapons in the far right arsenal is naive.
As a result, it becomes imperative that every action made by every person that cares in this country makes it harder for the conservatives to keep their throttle of power. Make their ghastly administrations fault, refuse to acknowledge their laws, derail their policies completely
Refuse the Tories access to the infrastructure they haven't yet consumed, prize back those that they have, ignore and defy cuts and the procedures that support them. Anyone that works a job can demonstrate through collective rule breaking, and in times like this it's vital.
Everything from deliberately costing our government money to completely halting cities through strikes and protests, to the ultimate goal of ending the capitalist system. Anything and everything counts if it isn't right wing and doesn't further the goals of the fascists
It is worth remembering that the Tories have conducted tactics that any fascist party would. There's nothing that special about this win, the left aren't dead (like some would insist), it's merely another step of capitalist descent into the far right.

This is expected.
The only way we improve society is through a complete rejection of any and all right wing ideas, and the defiance we can show through simply refusing to engage with this Conservative government can develop and grow into stronger and firmer politics for revolution.
In spite of everything, the far right control of media, pervasive rhetoric, smear campaigns, all the capitalist forms of consolidating and manipulating power, they still don't have 50% support (voters and non-voters) and young people clearly want change.

We can do this
Solidarity with all those targeted by the Conservatives, namely anyone not wealthy, cishet, white, able bodied, UK born etc is vital. How well we defy the right wing storm may be measured by how many of the above groups suffer through Tory hands.

Laws are dirt next to people.
Solidarity for our communities is important, as through forging together we can amplify our own descent and better protect that which we wish to conserve. What can a government do if the people that outnumber it refuse to play by their rules?

We outnumber the Tories
Our warmth and kindness towards all must not falter, but part of that is ensuring our tolerance is never afforded to right wing political figures, who must be treated in the same manner as rotting food. You waste your time and betray those the right target through such actions.
Like, I'm not interested about how it's so hard to be disobedient to our rampant fascist government when so much is at stake for so many.

Your action - or lack thereof - counts towards greater societal improvement, both in your local sphere and the wider world.
Do not seek the approval of the right, because the right will only approve of ideas that betray any semblance of left wing, just thought.

Make the left so unavoidable that the right either bend to our whim or break under the pressure. It's that, or we and the planet are done.
The Tories are one face of a global fascist machine, the next stage of capitalist hell.

We are not beaten until every human is dead on this planet, because left wing ideas are natural to a healthy, happy mind, and it is our urge and necessity to resist the misery of the right.
The dark times have been coming ever since capitalism took nest. How much darker they get depends on how firmly we protest and defy our Conservative government, in every form, for every issue.

One election is not the end. Be left, fight the Tories, support each other and live
