Yes, without a doubt. But telling other people not to defend themselves because it could provoke a general crackdown misses the point that fascists in power *are a general crackdown.*

Back when it was age-appropriate for me, I read Rolling Thunder and attended the meeting-counterpart of the same. In Anarcho-communism, then-we had a saying: the power is [in and of itself as opposed to any of its or its use's details] the abuse [of power] (wording: Crimethink ex-Workers Collective). So once there's fascism it's too late to avoid provoking them. The fascists already provoke each other.

I haven't espoused "revolution" WAIT OUT

Well, you avoid being the soonest target by leaving immediately and by not intentionally attracting attention. In my Anarcho-communist days I wanted to get shot or blown up. On two occasions the same driver nearly ran me over with the same dark red pickup truck. No longer. Afterwards in my thirties, a white van drove up and its driver talked to me. I said suspectisms e.g. "I don't consent to any searches," and "I wish to remain silent." WAIT OUT
