if/when the big totalitarian takeover becomes official, the military will side with the government.

The Oath Keepers have started a pro-American movement. Somehow, I don't see our own sons and daughters supporting a government out to destroy everything we hold dear. I believe most will side with their families. The majority of enlistments are moderate or conservative. A progressive/Socialist/communist would never have the courage to enlist.
The military might help the government at first, because they'll be in a state of confusion, but once that dies down and they come back to their senses, I believe they'll side with the people and Constitution they vowed to protect.

It will be the patriots and the U.S. military fighting against SEIU, ACORN, Black Panthers, etc. Should mop them up in a day or two. But first, need to cut off the head of the snake.

I doubt Oath Keepers will amount to more than a piss in the wind.

I quit when I realized they decided to water it down and ban all talk of militias and such because they couldn’t get active duty military and LEOs to join. These are their intended primary members, and the only folks who might really be in a position one day to activate their ten oaths. They wouldn’t join because it might jeapordize their security clearances and government pensions and such! Birds in gilded cages.

Do you think they would REALLY risk their perks by disobeying a direct order when the time came? They work for the Man, bought and paid for already by the Man. Few will turn on their master and bite the hand that feeds them when the time comes. Maybe some will, but it will not be a critical mass, most likely.
