The author furthermore points out...
"The Left has shown itself to be dedicated to the destruction of Western civilization itself. We have not been faced with such an existential threat since European armies threw the Turks back from Vienna in 1529. The fascists of the mid–20th century, for all their loathsome policies, were not the kind of threat to the fabric of our society that we face now. Bad as they were, they did not seek the destruction of Europeans as a people, or of European culture as a living, breathing thing. Progressivism does. What could be more worthy of, if you will forgive the word, 'resistance'?"
Does anybody see a way out of this? What would such a conflict look like with no clear geographical or physical boundaries between the parties?
We do not have the will to employ helicopters. We have already lost to Cloward and Piven.
The Left is not a nation. The Left is the traitorous enemy of the United States of America.
“since European armies threw the Turks back from Vienna in 1529”
It was 1688 (9/11/1688, to be exact).
Quote from the article:
“We conservatives have let this ideological cancer metastasize for far too long for its excision to be simple or painless. For too long, we have been patient with outrages we should have fought to reverse. We have let our opponents secede incrementally from us for decades. We have been tolerant and patient. In our tolerance and patience, we have given up our civil society, our political representation, and our freedoms one by one. Our maladies won’t be fixed by delicate adjustments now — half-heartedly performed by yet another generation of narcissistic government planners and invisible elitist bureaucrats.”
“What would such a conflict look like with no clear geographical or physical boundaries between the parties?”
What would it look like? Carnage and barbarism without quarter. It will be beyond ugly. But it is now inevitable.
Comparisons to the American Civil War are meaningless. Our "civil war" wasn't really a civil war at all. It was a secessionist movement, not a battle for control of our government and institutions.
If the Democrats try to manipulate the electoral college, I see the states dissolving into rural and metro areas. Pennsylvania would be merely Philadelphia and Pittsburgh vs the remainder of the state.
Since the most valuable basic commodities are food and water in tough times, I don’t see the metro areas winning.
Doubling down on mislabeling bad puns as sarcasm should do it.
Or citing hypocrisy! Yes!

I think it looks like Bosnia.
My own view is that people moving in the USA to either join, or get away from, coastal woke liberalism in a geographic self-sorting that make a future division and partition of the USA all the more likely.
I think something similar is happening here in Canada, although high house prices in the high-cost liberal enclaves is a big factor.
I think that Brexit represents the same thing - an attempt for ordinary people to escape from urban, progressive, woke, liberal, globalist tyranny.
i got a headache today. Can we do Tuesday? Say 9?
You mid western boys or the PA or upstate boys gotta come help us staten islanders out.
first thing we would have to blow up three bridges and guard one.
Being surrounded by water helps a little.
I agree. Congress is no longer a viable body steeped in irreconcilable differences between the 2 parties. That is why the country over the last 2 administrations is essentially ruled by mutable executive orders and the federal judiciary that has encroached on the congressional legislative function. I think term limits is a good start so these folks know that this will not be a career for them I would like to see them lame ducks the day they are elected. One 9 year term for all congresscritters.This way they will not be running for reelection the day they are elected and no campaign contributions to buy them because they will not be running again. Takes most of the money out of congressional politics.
The Left Socialists are not the majority of the USA nor will they ever be. The MSM makes it look otherwise. The Left will not win nor will they like the push back they get.
Nobody over the age of 25 actually believes that socialism/communism works.
There really is no “left” in this country.
The divide is between Conservatives and thieves.
Build more prisons.
Oh please.
You have an evil cabal at the top that is being exposed.
They control an evil media that is also exposed and
increasingly unable to protect them.
They work together to try to make the minority of unhinged
low IQ types seem like half the country.
They are not half the country.
But they ARE starting to piss the rest of us off, and that
will not help them keep their power.
Oh, I totally agree with this.
That’s why I bailed and are living in a free country elsewhere. Free of liberals. Free of progressives. Free of SWJ activists. Free of trans-gendered elephant sized women.
You might not like that I bailed. You might not like where I moved to. But, you at least understand my reasons for doing so.
See my tag line.

A police state putting down a rebellion.

The plot line of “Unintended Consequences” is the most likely scenario. Each person decides on the target of their choice & removes them as they can. At least that would be the case on the conservative side. The lefties would probably be a little less selective in their violence.
