The author is unfortunately in the "adolescent channeling Hunter Thompson, but without the talent" category, but still some interesting material in the article.

I think living in a totalitarian America — with wall-to-wall surveillance powered by modern technology — is pretty terrifying.

An earlier article suggested that Hillary Clinton might be elected, then preemptively pardoned by Obama to shield her from impeachment.

That would lead to interesting times. I think it would lead to massive civil disobedience at first, but the fuse could be lit at any time.

Civil wars are started by desperate, hungry people who have nothing to lose. Walk through any Walmart and take a look at the corpulent poor. Too many people have WAY too much to lose. Also, beyond the annoyance of the communist agitator group BLM is anybody organizing militias? Not that I’ve noticed.

Even if you weaned them off the EBT cards and the Obama-phones, they wouldn’t take to the streets. (Not in Republican states, anyway, as they’d get their fat butts shot off.)

Let’s say president Hillary outlaws guns. Okay, fine, we all become outlaws. She has no moral authority and her legal authority would be rapidly reduced to nothing. We would suffer through for more years of a bad economy and she would guarantee a Republican replacement. Our civil wars are now at the ballot box.

Its Cracked.com - smug, self impressed children with laptops. Far more arrogance than talent.

Warning, hard core ...

But still the wars go on as the years go by With no love of God or human rights Cause all these dreams are swept aside By bloody hands of the hypnotized Who carry the cross of homicide And history bears the scars of our civil wars

An insurgency, or a rebellion, is possible - but it’s not a civil war, not by a long shot.

To have a civil war, it would be necessary for the chain of command of our armed forces to become compromised in such a way that it became unclear to junior officers whose orders they were supposed to follow.

This is not impossible, but it’s very, very unlikely.

Secession is very possible. The war may or may not happen. I think the USA would be happy to get rid of as many red states as possible without bloodshed.

Americans would not fight another civil war, but we are rapidly filling the country with non-Americans who have no attachment to the nation or culture, who do not share our language or religion, and who think politics is simply a matter of the powerful enriching themselves at the expense of the powerless.

Everything depends on whether Hillary “wins.”

If so, she will be the aggressor.

The U.S. government made itself definitively illegitimate on Jan. 22, 1973.

As far as I am concerned we are definitely heading towards a Social War. Where this article made me think was that part of it dealing with the idea of fragmentation of groups. I think such a result comes from the lack of a truly gifted inspiring leader. Such a leader could be a bad guy like Hitler, Lenin, or a good guy like Washington. I fear that the Washington's will truly be rare and are not probable in America's future .
