There is so much wrong with that. We are talking about the extremely far out scenario of a US civil war, i.e. the first REAL war, where substantive issues can be decided, since 1945. Of course that won’t happen, but if it did...

No, NATO isn’t just the US. It’s NOW, because nobody outside the US cares about the wars of the last decades and only wants to weasel out of them.

In a war ppl cared about, even a peacetime army that has never seen combat would count for far more than any popular uprising, because it has logistics and organization.

„We‘d make Iraq look like a picnic“ Iraq already *was* a picnic, compared to a more organized country, as Vietnam.

And, god, why? Do you have comparably large family groups to organize fighting, as the Iraqis did? Are Americans willing to bury half of their children to fight an enemy? Because those things seem to be more important in an irregular war than how much money was spent on guns, tbh

That is, even assuming stable occupation of enemy territory would be a goal in a US civil war. Embroiling the enemy territory in permanent low level war and neutralizing them politically that way seems perfectly sufficient.

On a serious note: I seriously, genuinely don’t get, what you are all getting so worked up about. From the outside it seems to be completely incommensurable to any real issue going on

Theres major ongoing support for civil insurrection in the us from politicians and media And other large groups of people showing up with guns to fight it in a private capacity intermittent inability of government to maintain a monopoly on force in a broad area is bad news

I have a buddy who is a millionaire and very respected top level lawyer and is also in the black block of the fan culture of his local football club.

He punches policemen, sometimes with metal bars, at least once month and is honestly, morally, outraged, whenever the local government cracks down on this, because they „just don’t understand what football is about“.
