I wonder what folks who have actually been through civil wars think of all this civil war talk applied to the current state of US politics and culture.

I've been thinking that a better analogy is to the French revolution with Robespierre and the reign of terror.

The Democrats occupy the position of the French Nobility.

Throw them in jail. make them post bail of $10 million. Give them a trial with three judges as a tribunal.

Then, in public, for all to see...... off with their heads.

They are all guilty of seditious conspiracy and a host of other crimes involved. They have attempted to overthrow the elected government of the Republic.

Off with their heads (it’s painless and humane and not cruel nor unusual)

“I’ve been thinking that a better analogy is to the French revolution with Robespierre and the reign of terror.”

I think a big difference would be that poor people during the French revolution were the most likely to be hungry, not the most likely to be obese like they are here and now. I think that particular dynamic probably makes inaccurate every historical parallel to our current era. It’s never happened before, so who knows. It’s hard for me to imagine anything sustained going on while these conditions persist.
