Great, so they’re prepping for a civil war. At least they’re aware thats whats going to happen…fucking idiots.
American’s opportunity to fight this is disappearing rapidly. They need to take this very seriously.
Apparently you dont know how a civil war works…People dont ask permission for a civil war from the current government…
Shiiiiit. Do the math, our military is pretty fucking small, but effective, in foreign lands.
340million citizens, 500million+ firearms, meanwhile our armed forces has approximately 2million headcount but most of them are not soldiers. So basically 250:1 ratio.
In time both political groups will become more unified against this bullshit as it begins to affect them directly. I’m talking citizens, not politicians.
That was largely dead… closer to decades ago than not.
Gun nuts? You are all unique little snowflakes and if just one of you were in Gaza all of Israel would have been stopped. Now fuck off.
Everyone with a brain cell? We’ve been conditioned as a people to hate protesters if they… actually protest. Block a street or even be distracting on the sidewalk? Fucking losers are going to alienate the good people like me all while accomplishing nothing and maybe we SHOULD kill some trans folk just to show them how rude they are being! And if the fascists pop a few protesters in the process? Both sides are letting this escalate way too far and… wait, mother fuckers were gonna hurt the Costco? Okay, maybe that fat white kid had a point.
And any actual organized armed resistance? They’ll get taken out by snipers/marksmen or just run over by tanks/APCs. Or they’ll shoot a few cops, run off, and learn real quick just how many cameras we have in this country (and people should realize that is increasingly true globally…) and wake up to a drone strike on their hideout.
And if they DO magically manage to destroy every single camera in the tristate area without ever getting caught because they have the power of jesus and Jack Bauer on their side? They’ll learn REAL fast that their neighbors aren’t going to defiantly face a firing line while talking into the camera about how the wildcats are going to save this great land. They’ll call the cops, give up the location of the heroic wildcats, and then have to yell over the sound of bombs dropping while they ask if there is a reward.
The reality is that nothing can stop a modern military other than another modern military. This has ALWAYS been true but it is even moreso now that said modern military have ridiculous technological advantages. And… just look at russia. Pull your pants up hexbears… Nobody is going to really try to stop them because they are one of THE nuclear powers. You know who the other one is? The one obsessed with eagles and the punisher.
Speaking of which, abrahamic god help you if you don’t Support The Troops™. Posse commitatus you fucking civvy, they have no choice but to follow the orders up until they will instead decide to protect all of us!!! Until then, they are going to sacrifice their everything by fucking up the paperwork right before they push the latest batch of people into a gas chamber.
But, I hear you say, guerilla warfare is a thing and always wins! Okay, one: Gaza. Two: Much of the global south once the imperialist powers lost interest. Guerilla warfare works when the occupying force cares about public opinion. And guerilla warfare’s end state is to make it too costly for said occupying force to… occupy it.
So… if you burn enough mypillow trucks then trump and all the republicans are going to abandon the US? Is that the endgame?
Nah… I increasingly don’t think the american people have any way of fighting back. And the people watching horrified around the world are going to learn just how fast their governments take inspiration from this. The best we can hope for is a civil war and… the people who take power during those tend to not be the people you want as leaders.
You’re weak minded. Our military has nothing to protect against the citizens. This isn’t Iraq. We’ll sabotage the living fuck out of everything they need to operate. Where do you think they’re going to get their food? Their fuel? Etc…
That’s a lot of words to say “it’s hard so don’t bother”
Home of the brave!
Why don’t you come down here and fight with us? Take the lead, show us how it’s done.
Just another deflection to avoid responsibility for doing something yourself.
This is your mess. I’m not cleaning it up for you.
You think they won’t be coming for Canada once they’re done with the US takeover? As was mentioned here already, Trump has been openly threatening Canada. Why not come help sort out the situation now, rather than waiting until the military is at your door?
You’d be doing well if you put as much energy into resisting them as you do into trying to make it someone else’s problem.
Americans have to solve this themselves. No one else can do it.
I made three comments on the internet. If you think that much energy is going to make a difference anywhere, I’ve got some unfortunate news for you.
Regardless, the point I’m trying to make is, it’s really easy to sit here and post about how Americans need to step up and solve the problem, just like it’s easy for us to say “We need to take action!” - what’s hard is knowing how to effectively take that action, or how to organize a country behind a common course. I sure don’t know how to do those things, and I suspect almost everyone else is in the same situation. We need a leader to step up and show us how.
Point is, if you aren’t going to be that person, you have nothing to offer, and your derogatory internet tough guy posting isn’t in any way productive. Why don’t you put that effort into fighting your own far-right political groups, instead?
