I learned on Glenn Beck that the Civil War did not start with Fort Sumter. It had been building for at least a decade prior to that. Many of the Southern states were locked down prior to this and there were small acts of violence and assassinations during this period. Fort Sumter was the final destroy before a declaration of war was made.
The Confederates did not want to overthrow the government. They wanted government by consent, which meant separation from the federal alliance.
This is very different from the 2016 attempted coup. The coup conspirators wanted the opposite of government by consent.
And this year they outdid themselves when they chose a black woman for vice president who isn’t black.

Wrong , they have a military force, called antifa-deepstate- china waiting at the gates.
More equal than others... Hitler did it to make enslaved gemrans think they were favored over jews, Chinese do it with the Uyhghurs , and democrats keep doing it from one race to the other who is more liable to play that game.
I am starting to think the reason so many amongst asians or jews vote democrat is because of their own socialist racist elements in them getting baited for favored thinking treatment.
After Trump won in 2016, I guess they all feared they would be exposed. We can only imagine the theft, murder, bribery, extortion, blackmail, and other crimes they had committed prior that caused them to launch civil war.
"Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God."
John 3:20-21
And it's not just Democrats in D.C. The civil war combatants and allies include Big Tech, most corporations (who Trump gave trillions in tax cuts), Hollywood, 95% of all media, professional sports, academia, and almost all international bodies (UN, WHO, World Bank, IMF, EU, etc.)
I view the D’rats’ 2016+ political actions as a coup attempt against our President, not as secession.
I view the progressives’ & D’rats’ current social actions as sedition.
I view both actions as treason, to be punished by hanging by the neck until dead.

Yes, except I think they committed treason and effectively seceded when they declared Sanctury States / Sanctury Cities.

Why secede when you can take over the whole shooting match? The Dems aren’t looking to secede anywhere, although that’s certainly what the vote distributions look like. Succession isn’t their game at all. They want to run the whole, exploiting the unfavored classes in favor of the protected ones both as sources of wealth and a manifestation of the cynically named “social justice”. They don’t want their promised equality for all, they want to be judges with a heavy thumb on the scales. They want what every communist New Class always wants, personal power and wealth protected by an impenetrable shield of pretended moral virtue. They don’t even pretend otherwise anymore. The only real question left has to do with the nature of the inevitable collision and how many people it hurts.
