to many fat people to have a civil war.
not enough fear and desperation to make a man physically grab a rifle or gasoline to kill someone or burn his house and family to death. Because he knows that once he’s “popped his cherry” and killed someone, he can never go back.
Yup, the poorest are most likely to be obese, have smart phones, and are used to air conditioning. Can’t see them choosing the hardship sustained civil unrest would bring while these conditions persist.
I am kind of torn if the advent of the 24 hour news cycle/smart phone/social media makes it more or less likely to have sustained civil unrest. On one hand we are simply the most passively entertained people ever. On the other hand it causes folks to get into a froth over things I think. True, it is ‘internet rage’ mostly. I do know if the entertainment faucet gets turned of there are a lot of folks who have absolutely no idea of how to actively entertain themselves without looking a at screen. I think it might drive many into psychosis, maybe they would look for a cause or a violent outlet to relieve their boredom.
