"Most of the ethnically-based civil wars are started by people who had once been dominant in a country but are in decline demographically." @bfwalter says the U.S. is closer to a civil war than most would like to believe.

Will Bunch and the left have advocated violence for some time now. If this civil war fantasy of yours comes true, who do you actually believe will fight for you?

If there's a civil war because of donald trump, I mean how does this sentence ever end? How the actual fuck have we come to this? It's the stupidest sentence ever written in the entire history of the universe

Yes, but you can't just say 'civil war in the US' and stop there. The US has a very extensive structure of legal entities with access to the monopoly on state violence. Muni, county, state and federal law enforcement. State National Guard. 1/2

You'd have to explain how a civil war could take root. How an armed group could start civil violence on that level without being arrested or killed in a few days or less. How a larger group could come together and take and hold territory with small arms...

And democrats - the people most in favor of gun control - are the ones depending on the fascist police to defend themselves against the armed right-wing militias. It boggles the mind...

The majority of MAGA wouldn't push a lawnmower. Civil war is doubtful. MAGA politicians have fooled themselves into believing the Proud Boys reflect even 5% of MAGA. More like 0.05%. But that 20,000 can do real damage in a short time. Most of MAGA wouldn't support an insurgency.
