As a free-market economist who has studied communist regimes for 30 years - I’m pretty sure I do.

From President Reagan’s Cabinet member:

“America’s Demise Is Near At Hand America R.I.P. Paul Craig Roberts For years I have been cataloging America’s decline into collapse, not merely economic collapse from economic concentration and the offshoring of jobs and investment, but also the collapse of the belief system that created some unity among a diverse population. Today not only is the economy done for, but so is the belief system that sustained social and political stability. America no longer exists. A geographical entity exists of diverse peoples and interests, but not a country, much less a nation. The United States itself has degenerated...”

Bullshit!

Quit Playing the relativity game!

Both sides do not have real grievances.

Their side has a lot of fake, false grievances. They are Marxists and lying is their game.

Twenty years ago I was telling friends that society would collapse under its own weight.

Civil war paaallleeesseee you must be joking. There is a zero percent chance the “good guys” leave the keyboards and their warm homes, jobs, wives and “stuff” to take any fight that would cost any one of those things. Work has to be done , jobs and soccor practise and bills payed. The good guys are all wage slaves no one is pledging their life, fortunes and sacred honor this time around face it all that’s going to happen is more venting on the internet and maybe a few false flag events to hurry up the gun grabs. Sorry thats just the sad truth Americans are not the same caliber of men that existed on 1775. Before anyone dares flame me know this two days after 911 I walked away from a 100k+ a year job, a home a boat and it cost me a wife as well to take the fight to those that hit us so.don’t even dream of doubting my resolve. I’m still young enough to get in the fight but we need millions more other wise its just suicidal cannon fodder for the commies to crush the red zones. Wake me up when we have a chain of command and rally points , I’ll be there armed with all the ammo I can carry and my well worn combat boots that have been on 6 of seven continents over a decade plus of service.

For crying out loud.

IT ISN’T THAT KIND OF WAR!

Do you want to know why we are where we are? I’ll explain it.

For sixty years, blacks in the inner cities have been breeding like ants and raising every one of their children to hate white people and want to stick it to them. They vote in absolute racial lockstep and this year, black women, the most racist people in the country, stuck up for their black sista and did everything possible including cheating at the polls to drag her across the finish line. They hate this country, they hate everyone over in flyover country, and don’t think for a second that the polite one you meet at work doesn’t secretly despise you when alone. They want reparations at a minimum, 400 years of revenge at a maximum, and you’ll never ever win over more than a trifling amount to believe otherwise.

And then you have the suburban white women who just want everyone to get along and want everything to be lilacs and roses and want the bad orange man out. And they’ve raised their college kids to believe the same thing, which only gets reinforced in the academic bubble by Communists who have been dug in like ticks for six decades.

Are you seriously proposing infantry actions into the inner cities to exterminate the 90% of blacks who will support Communism no matter what, even if they know it will hurt them too? Are you proposing marching to all of the college campuses and systematically wiping out every professor to the last man and every college student who looks like some leftie? Because that’s the nature of the enemy at the gates. This has been building for longer than most of us have been alive and it’s going to take that level of carnage to get us out of it.

If you’re actually serious about fighting a civil war, you’d damned well better think more out of the box because infantry actions alone won’t do the job. PERIOD.

We’ve been at war for decades. So far only the left has been fighting.

Are you saying that we'll need air support, too? Or that amphibious assaults will also be necessary?

Spit it out!

Winning an election in 2022 or 2024 would be many times easier than winning by force.

Want my prediction? Here goes.

You’re going to need the following:

- Unmanned, autonomous drones by the dozens if not hundreds
- Secure (i.e. encrypted) communications
- Equipment for jamming cellular, ground radar, airborne radar, and all police communications
- High-explosive munitions
- Aerosolized toxins
- Hidden (likely underground) manufacturing sites
- All-weather early-warning capability
- The expertise and funding to manufacture all of the above
- Surface-to-air and surface-to-surface strike capability

And unless you have the imprimatur of at the very LEAST an entire county government and thousands of people guarding you, you’ll have to get all of that off the ground in absolute secrecy.

"Winning an election in 2022 or 2024 would be many times easier than winning by force/"

When the outcome of those elections is already predetermined - election fraud, 22+ million foreign nationals made citizens, 2- 4 additional (D) states and election fraud that's had 2 - 4 to be even further perfected. Not a chance.

Look at what they've done in the last 4 years alone...the last 2 months alone.

They are playing for keeps this time.

There is no way in the world the 2022 or 2024 elections will be anything even remotely close to being "free" or "fair."

What you’re advocating would have been a fine plan about a generation or two ago. But now, we have to think in terms of actions that can be taken in days to at most months. It might be tempting to think that this obscene assault on our most precious freedoms is just some kind of tyrannical outburst, and that the dems will get it out of their system and return to some semblance of civil government. But that’s not how tyrants behave, especially when their intended victims just sit there and take it.

Because no one has metaphorically (or actually) punched the bully in the nose, he’s now just more emboldened and will continue to ratchet up his bullying. Every facet of civil government has utterly failed to resist this tyranny, leaving only one remaining Constitutional remedy. Fortunately, to paraphrase Apple, “There’s an amendment for that.”

This is not the time for snap actions. You have three years to plan.

Build capability.

If CW2 kicks off I predict a real need for attack drones. It won’t be 1861 — it will be a dirty, highly asymmetric battle with the Geneva Convention thrown out the window.

There will be a need for secure communications. Lots of it.

There will be a need for multiple secret manufacturing facilities.

There will be a need for many kind of munitions — HE, incendiary, even toxic. The fighting will indeed be dirty.

Most of all, there will be a need for expertise and there cannot ever be a single point of failure.
