Lets compare what the #RISE agenda of Burlington, Vermont to what the Brattleboro/Wantastegok fascist government has done/continues doing:
1.”We motion the Mayor and or the City Council to declare racism a municipal health crisis” The selectboard members refuse to and deny Representatives access to gather to resolve motions to.
2.”We motion the City Council to resolve that a “task force” be established to consider an apology and a proposal for reparations for the role that Burlington has played in Chattel Slavery.” The selectboard members refuse to budget for employing a Reparations office and cheaply depend on the volunteerism of middle school students and patriots.
3.”We motion prioritizing the eradication of systemic racism in the creation of the budget.” The selectboard members passed the annual budget and disregarded the present participating public majority opposition.
Reminder: the majority of voters elected the current selectboard members.
"fascist government"
Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/) is a form of far-right, authoritarian ultranationalism[1][2] characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, as well as strong regimentation of society and of the economy[3] which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe.[4]

Thank you, Rikki Risatti, for warning us.
It truly frightens me to find out that our local government is characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, as well as strong regimentation of society and of the economy.
