the riots are on the verge of beginning right now...the delicate part is, when does the left hit back at the borderline riots now (which they will no doubt exaggerate, or even fund through shady methods), and how hard does the left hit back. That to me is the essence of Reichstag: an exaggerated response to a (perhaps concocted) violent event that furthers the goals of the state.
Now...would a nationwide suspension of civil liberties or confiscation work? No, it would not, about that there is no disagreement. That would erupt in full-blown rioting and widespread disobedience. But who wants to go through that?
The point being: when the left is in power, it is FAR FROM UNREASONABLE that they will concoct threats from “right wing hate groups” in order to try to suppress legitimate conservative dissent and activism. Anyone who doesn’t believe that THAT is possible and likely, is just naive. Maybe it is not as extreme as the historic Reichstag, but the dynamic and strategy is exactly the same.....it’s all in Alinsky by the way.

For sure. Hell, they whine like stuck pigs, claiming that someone on our side called Barney Frank a fag. This makes many of us cower, terrified and hoping that one of us didn’t do such a terrible, impolite thing to one of our respected, elected officials. Just another method of mind-control from our friends on the Left.
