"Elections will be canceled" is a phrase being pushed by bots and foreign actors to increase apathy.

Repeating the sentiment is spreading propaganda for free and surrendering before the fight even happens. Don't spread their propaganda! Elections happen because WE say they will!

While it's true that elections being cancelled is fearmongering, elections can't stop fascism, because fascism is caused by capitalism in decay. Only socialism can stop fascism for good, like the Red Army crushing the Nazis.
