Don't you think that such a war would be over very quickly, because whichever side the military broke on would have insurmountable advantages?

Dont think of the last u.s. civil war, where the country splits into distinct states that duke it out. Think of Iraq, where insurgent groups carry out attacks at an escalating pace while social order rapidly breaks down.

You think that roadside IEDs are going to become commonplace in the United States like next week?

No, but we've already seen a number of mass shooters (white nationalist and otherwise) stockpiling tannerite. No uses yet, but it feels inevitable. Look at the way mass shootings spread, or the way truck ramming attacks have spread. All it'll take is one to start a trend.

There are already militia groups arming up and training for this.

Well let me know when you find an American militia group that wouldn't be totally overwhelmed by a single F-18

That’s not how war works. Air strikes against informally trained militias might be a whole lot more effective than a trained conventional unit, but for the most part they wouldn’t rout.

Yep. I'm 62 and heartbroken with the knowledge that my generation led the way in talking such a good game about making a better country and ultimately ... blowing it

TBH, Goldwater sold them on this second-Santa garbage, so they elected Reagan & both Bushes. Yuppies started looking out for themselves & cloistering off in the suburbs so they couldn't see anyone different from themselves as equals. Once you're aware, you can unlearn.

I'm not so sure, it seems the opressed are very fragmented while the oppressors clearly have united. A few local revolutions might happen but I don't think it will spread at the moment.

Yeah, on our side are the veterans (trans & cis), most of the cops & members of the NRA, most of the medical community, and many currently in military service. On their side are some entitled white dudes with superman complexes, guns & the belief they're displaced millionaires.
