      Yeah, the closest we’re going to get to a 2nd civil war in the States is gonna be a wave of stochastic terrorism

      They’re gonna try some Turner Diaries shit and it’s gonna get ugly real quick

      No open warfare, just lots of mass shootings and public lynchings

        There’s even a precedent for it in Bleeding Kansas, although John Brown was actually fighting for something worthwhile unlike the current farce.

        The establishment sure but they’ve been revving the boomer libs for this with MSNBC the same as the boomer chuds have by Fox

        Here’s hoping RFK does just well enough for a 3 way split and all the boomers getting mad enough to either kill each other or have heart attacks

      I think a millitary coup and the dissolution of the two current parties is more likely and a significant amount of people would not even care, faith is so low in either party. The millitary is not gonna allow that shit to happen they will depose Abott and everyone around him before Texas starts shelling New Mexico.
