    A Fourth Reich rolling through the Americas is a terrifying prospect. First, because it means so much death at the hands of the North Atlantic war machine. Second, because it means massive balkanization in the gaps that aren’t strategic for the war machine and that means a fuck ton of guerilla warfare, vigilantism, mini-warlords, and constant terror. But third, because it means the war machine will be sufficiently stretched that it makes logical sense for a coalition of global majority nations to actually launch attacks on Central America to split the fascist military and then subsequent attacks on the US West coast, and ultimately multiple invasion to shutdown command centers.

      The contradictions within the US wouldn’t allow for a Blitzkrieg through Latin America, the military is struggling to recruit and there’s tens of millions of people living here who have close family across the continents. Not just undocumented immigrants, but generations of immigrants of all documentation statuses. And they can all buy guns. There’s no way this works.
