Your borderline illiteracy makes me wonder if you're actually in school or just some basement dwelling bottom feeder trying to understand how anything outside of your dumpster impacts anything.

I agree. Would help if the party didn't accept corporate money, like the Sander campaign before the DNC fucked him over.

When has that literally ever been the case in any context? Tf you smoking?

It's probably prudent for me to mention a few things, one I don't personally think that's where this is going, at least not yet. Two I'm aware of the sheer size and number of Americans would need to whole heartedly participate. I'd never expect that many to even get off the couch. I was more directing the sentiment of "resistance" that so many keyboard jockey liberals keep throwing around. I would not start or attempt to lead or even advocate for this level of action so prematurely. What I failed to articulate was I was operating under the assumption america had a civil war at the same scale of our first, or like other countries have had.

To your point, tangentially, if it were left v Trump 'regime', they'd (Trump regime) probably have support from Russia at the very least. We already know how limp dick NATO is. It would be a blood bath with a pinhole path to victory.

Do I believe it could happen or work with the current state of our country? No. Do I think we'll get there? No. Do I want it to? Still no. My point was if the left want it they should put their money where their mouth is and that it's not impossible for a well organized civilian army to "win" to some effect. Especially since something like that is bound to cause some splintering in the military.

This is why the people who scream "resist" don't. They/you always operate under the assumption it's just a guy and a group of crazy people.

Civilians did thwart an army. Look at the middle east. We didn't win shit, we just left.

Na you're right better to just roll over and die. The war in the middle east we won decisively without question because bombs. Same with Vietnam.

American military relies on three things. American people who want to fight, logistic networks and symmetrical warfare. Take away one of the legs like in the middle east and the us military becomes useless.

Try again.

You were right. I found the trending sub channel and found a swathe of content.

Definitely part of it for sure. Part of a larger machine to weaken and stupefy the population.

Exactly this. The "left" has consistently shifted right to pander to voters who don't like them. They've positioned themselves to be lame ducks across the board. Their "moderate" stance is basically taking it up the ass when someone tells them to assume the position. Kamala was/is and will always be weak. Biden was a do-nothing geriatric patient who was too afraid to even defend an ally, Ukraine.

The "left" have shifted right so hard Nixon would run as a fucking democrat.

People are quick to forget the second amendment exists for situations like this.

"A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed."

"being necessary to the security of a free State" being the key point here. I find it ironic that every time anyone tries to pass any gun legislation the right cry foul saying they need to defend themselves from a tyrannical government. Then literally elect an outspoken tyrant. Neo-liberals (diet conservatives basically) are so busy jerking themselves off about how great they are, forgot why the second amendment exists. Despite all the cries for help, scared of fascism, they did nothing to actually prepare for the perceived threat. If it came down to it, toe to toe, left vs right, they'd get slaughtered. They're afraid of guns.

Now am I saying we need a violent coup d'etat? Nah. But some people are wholly convinced Trump is going to go full on fascist. Do things like invoke the insurrection act, declare martial law and suspend habeas corpus. To those people, y'all need to rethink your stance on arms. If it's coming and you want to stop that freight train? That's war. And you're not ready.

Tried both. I get marginally more content via new. A lot of it is what's in hot but in a different order. I'm on boost for lemme if that matters.
