Thanks for your post.
Unfortunately, I have see real war. Burned bodies twisted in hellish poses. Dead children. The Smell. The horror.
I have had it up to HERE with KeyBoard Warriors and their "Civil War" postings. I hate what the Globalists/Communists/Democrats are doing on a daily basis. If someone wants to stop them and bring on a real Civil War, then do it, and I'll comment on that. Until then, they can shut their collective traps about "war."
“After only 3 weeks of a general strike...”
I have often wondered why that strategy is not talked up. It was used in the 1800s in Europe to bring down governments, real fast.
We live in a nation where the poor are the richest poor in the world, the rich have the highest quality of life of any humans at any time in the history of humans, and no where near taking up arms.

for some reason you think that material wealth is why there will be no conflict. Material wealth is no guarantee against conflict. T
God Bless Texas.
Material wealth is no guarantee against conflict.
something to think about. Remember the airplane hijackings? Why did they stop? We paid them to stop. Take a closer look at history.
How do we keep the poor from rioting? We pay them not to. That is the purpose of welfare.
No guarantee but...................................
Remember Rome’s bread and circuses?
CWII is nothing to wish for. It will be murderous, destructive of much of what makes America the economic powerhouse that we are and likely a prelude to foreign military invasion.
A few thoughts.
1) The above is the inevitable result of the “Invisible Hand”
2) The only cure for our situation is tough times. We have not had the smaller economic corrections we should have had, so the one we are going to have is going to be a whopper.
3) The story is still being written, we don’t know all the details..............................

(Thinking Caps are no longer being issued but there must be a warehouse full of them somewhere.)
Nope.......they were destroyed by the folks practicing the PeterPrinciple
Shall we address you as "Your Highness," or will "Sir," do?
I guess we will address you as “Your Prideful No-nothing.”|
Why am I thinking;
“Omega Man?”
Thank you for the most sensible things said about the possibility of CWII.
If you think that either has stores to last more than a few days for a large population like an average city, then you're delusional. That seizure will do nothing to protect them, the citizens of the city, or anything else. The moment that any LEO or governor has to seize stockpiles of anything is the moment that there is nothing left to protect. Only a fool would stick around. Delaying the inevitable for an extra few days is meaningless. Far more likely is that the stores will be used for bribes and escaping.
I think we’ll win. But it won’t be a cakewalk. It’ll be more like Nationalists during the Spanish Civil War where Franco was the leader. “Loyalists” would mostly be in inner cities throughout the US, and you would have FBI agents, inner city gangsters, and a bunch of diehard socialists on their side.
Exactly, it’s hard to imagine widespread sustained civil unrest when the poorest are the most likely to be obese and are the most entertained poor people ever. Also, you would think more simply deign to try voting if things were getting so bad and before they decide to take to the streets or whatever.
I think the 24 hour news cycle and social media tend to make people who do care about society, politics and culture vastly overestimate the number of folks who care about it like they do.
Freegards
Not to mention that other nations will intervene almost immediately.
Talk of CW is ridiculous.
We are in an information cw and that’s where it will be fought and won/lost.
The truth/good will is mostly on our side, however the other side controls the media and is to a degree able to invert reality.
At the end of the day however Marxism just doesn’t make people’s lives better and it eventually collapses.
“Only time will tell, but maybe many of these leftists, haven’t thought this out very well”.
I think that’s a very good point.
Many on our side aren’t thinking clearly, either. Too many on our side are very complacent and are feeling a false sense of security right now because President Trump is in office. They aren’t thinking about what happens when DJT is out of office.
Trump is a blessing but once he’s gone, look out.
I don’t think we’ll have a civil war in the normal sense of the phrase, where an entire nation is involved. Rather, I see the inevitability of several localized actions, no larger than city-wide, and most much smaller than that. They will be contained as such.
However, for those actually caught within those actions it is all relative, as they will relate strictly to what is immediate to them. So, an action in, say, the town of Abracadabra, will be huge to someone in Abracadabra, and that will be all that matters to that person.
