I don't want to to dunk on this amusing tweet too much but it has to be noted that this is the exact same logic that led Southerners to think secession would work in 1861: that North wouldn't fight because too soft, effeminate, cut off from blood & soil etchttps://twitter.com/asymmetricinfo/status/1000745664102486016 …

No, Jeet: One side thought that the fact that no-one ever answered them back meant that they were always right and brilliant. In fact it meant that extermination of their way of life was the only solution. Again, Canada is not like that.

The tweet made me think of the Hollywood people who designed an entire fake invasion force in England, with the real General Patton as its leader, to fool the Nazis about the location of the D-Day landings. Don’t mess with creative people!

Another critical factor in the Union victory was that a significant percentage of the Union Army's soldiers were immigrants and black people. I can't help but think that the same will be true for our side in the next civil war!

Good thing the Red States don’t need technology or electricity for anything since the blue states have a monopoly on tech/hackers
