True, but their specialty is force multipliers. The MSM gives them morale, which is usually a 3-to-1 multiplier, and saps the morale of the other side. They also have recruitment, and deception/propaganda. (Our only multiplier would be training/experience.)
They also have the "advantage" that they do not care about America. It can be decimated in the fight. Heck, that's seemingly one of their goals. They have more potential allies (victim groups of literally every color). They also would be more than happy to have outside nations and groups come in and join the fight on their side, and some (ISIS, Venezuela, Iran, possibly even Russia or China), where our list of strong allies is... remarkably thin. (I doubt Israel comes over to help out. Britain is dead. Australia, maybe??)
I hope the war never comes, but if it does, I hope I'm still surly and able enough to make significant contributions. I like to think that I might.
Not our only one. They're emotionally driven, which makes them irrational and impulsive. That means they can be manipulated and baited.

the mainstream media must be defeated first. They are already in the process of trying to select the next liberal president.
In a kinetic scenario, the msm would need to get on high ground or be washed quickly and dramatically away.
