America is not ready for what comes next (opinion piece from clown world)

[Deplorable Me]

America is not ready for what comes next

The attempt on Donald Trump’s life has put the republic in peril.

www.vox.com

Anyone want a manure milkshake? Cuomo’s and Hochul's comments on conservative values still sit firmly in my head and a lot of others. Funny thing is I'm more libertarian than conservative. I'm tired of Albany values, tired of paying for programs and people that bring no value to society, tired of the growing police state. When shit goes down I am not surprised, they've been poking the bears for too long.

It will only take one well placed shot to turn this country on its head. The divisiveness spewed by the elected fringe elements and political hacks in the media has the kindling smoldering, it won’t take much to start a flame. Once the fire starts burning it will consume a lot of lives before it eventually dies out.

The article is correct the people, especially the younger generations are not ready for the fight they are egging on. Civil War is not pretty or fair and it is brutal in its totality. If the fire starts burning it will be out of control for a very long time. Political assassination will be the norm for a decade. The city streets will turn into sniper allies. Ethnic cleaning will Balkanize this country worse than it was before the revolutionary war. I figure it will take a decade or two before things return to a civil society, but by then the county will be under the control of a Puppet Government of a foreign power and the America we knew would be a distant memory.

In the end, oldest amongst the survivors will raise their glasses in a secret to toast America, “it was a great experiment and we had a good run, only to be killed off by the mentally ill and those who would not stand and fight for the morally good.” I am glad to say I am old enough now, I will not be around to see the end of the troubles and bear witness to what America will become if this plays out the way the fringe elements want it to.

The question is, what exactly is coming? Civil war? Revolution? Martial law?

Simply saying there will be a Civil war is too easy. That would mean that citizens would be fighting each other. Sounds possible, but we need to consider that a large majority of the population lives in cities and relies on so much to survive. The last Civil War was fought by farmers that knew how to survive. They were avid hunters that knew how to shoot well. Most of the people in this country have no means of surviving in a world where there is no electricity, iGadgets, restaurants, clean water, etc. They definately are not capable of going out and fighting some kind of war.

Revolution? That would mean the people would have to rise up together against their government. We are so divided, it would never happen. And again, there is a large percentage of people that just aren't prepared for that.

So where does that leave the future of America? Chaotic no doubt. It will come down to people fighting for their lives. Any kind of (planned) economic collapse would kick off a domino effect of chaos. We have millions on government programs that would lose benefits. They would probably be the first to start kicking doors in. As people lose their jobs, they will give up on paying their mortgages, car payments, and CCs. That would cause a collapse of the banks. Bottom line is, hungry and thirsty people will do whatever it takes to survive. Us "prepared" people may think we are safe, but eventually they will be coming. We won't be out fighting some war that is for sure.

We are hanging by a thread from experiencing what I mention above. I think "they" know it and their plan is to do just that.

They missed.......................if we were awaiting the outcome of a mortally wounded Trump in the hospital.........I feel that the leftists would have felt emboldened.................and SCOTUS justices would be hit..setting it all off.

 

[Cooolone]

Well, they should all be asking themselves, are they better off today, then they were just 3 days ago?

And if THEY don't answer truthfully YES, then they are delusional... If Trump was assassinated, the world would be looking very different today! And I don't mean that in a good way! Just an opinion, a thought! Meaning the good fortune that befell the former and future POTUS, was not only his, but the opposing political spectrum to enjoy and be thankful of!

That is all...

 

[Drinkthekoolaid]

We "literally and figuratively" dodged a bullet.

However, I don't think it will be permanent if just staved off the inevitable a little longer.

There will be another incident of some sort on one side or the other that will ignite more outrage and give perceived justification to others to retaliate in kind.

I think at this point it's almost an inevitability. The media deserves a lot of blame for fanning the flames and ginning up artificially created outrage in mental simpletons. That can't be un-done. The damage has occurred and there are probably hundreds of thousands of radicalized leftists and leftist sympathizers walking our streets waiting for the next thing to be "anti" about.

I'm waiting for a political attack on others as we get closer to election time. It's going to happen. Whether it's something like an active shooter, driving a uhaul into a crowd etc. I fear it will happen. And that will be the start.

 

[Shadow rider]

I say Unite!

 

[Jmac00]

this right here, is the problem:

Biden is a steady leader but in a poor position to handle a crisis; Trump is a demagogue who is more likely to raise tensions rather than lower them.

Bullshit. The left said NObama would bring us together. He was the most divisive POTUS ever. Until biden showed up.

Biden is a true racist. He HATES blacks and Hispanics. But he LOVES children.

The left, and their Ministry of Propaganda ( CNN, MSNBC ) are hammering home the idea that the left is the path forward. They are, the very enemy of the people. The Ministry of Propaganda must be demolished

 

[tgenec86]

The issue with a Civil War or Revolutionary War is - who is on what side? It's not North vs, South - it's deep ideological divisions based on Party, Race, even Religion. Go stand in a crowd of people at a concert, or think about the fireworks show you might have been at. Who is your enemy? The frightening truth is that there are going to be people who keep their identities and affiliations hidden researching you on the internet, looking at your social media, digging though donation records, and putting you on a "List" for targeting if you happen to have sided with "the wrong side." Worse yet - there will be plenty who just want to be on the winning side, or the ones who don't give a shit about sides who either want to simply survive - or to have what you have. Eventually, "sides" might come together - kind of like Sunni vs. Shi'a - but for a long time you really will have no clue who to trust unless they are stupid enough to wear colored shirts and wave flags. Not sure how any of that would look, or how you could possibly organize after a crisis. Plenty will just pretend - for no other purpose but to get close enough to the leadership and eliminate them. The one thing you can do now is KNOW YOUR FRIENDS while it's still safe to show your loyalty. That's where it really starts - the groups that are strong now will have a fighting chance to survive, and to vet new members if or when things get ugly.

Truth is truth, no matter the writer.

And deluded nonsense is still deluded nonsense no matter how much you want to believe it.

"Biden is a steady leader". That is a laughable quote and proof the author cannot be taken seriously. Biden isn't even leading his own administration.

 

[RedBreast21]

And the distractions start again. Chaos among us favors the globalist elites who control all the media and tech that is plugged into our lives.

The chess pieces on the board are running low. Stay calm. Stay frosty.

 

[dwa12479]

If Civil War breaks out in this country it won't be uniformed North vs uniformed South with distinctly drawn battle lines. Itll be neighbor vs neighbor, door to door throughout the entire nation.

 

[Mr. terzmo]

“Trump is a demagogue who is more likely to raise tensions rather than lower them. “ My two cents is yes, this most likely will happen if he gets elected: BUT only because the left is responsible for providing the powder for the explosion. IE: remember the riots in Washington and Oregon at the end of his term.

Correct, the media and its writings are more of the issue than anything. The media is feeding this and it’s funny how this article said the tensions rise when people think the republic is at risk but yet the left keeps saying if Biden isn’t re-elected we will lose our democracy. Isn’t them saying this causing tensions to rise and us losing part of our democracy anyway. Freaking idiots and yes Obama started all this crap.

You could be right.

Let's hope that incident is Trump winning the election.

That could simplify things dramatically.

Never going to happen.

The people will fight each other if a fight does come.

 

[JaguarJaguarGolf]

The big divide in this country is urban-suburban / semi-rural-rural.

The fact that most urban centers rely on bridges and tunnels to connect them to the mainland would very much result in isolation of antagonists by geography

 

[Grimscale]

That could simplify things dramatically.

I predict numerous "mostly peaceful protests" by the usual cadre of "fictitious groups" if Trump wins.

If you want to know what the conflict will look like that a gander at the "Troubles" in Northern Ireland in the '70s and '80s or the sectarian violence in Iraq after the invasion. Of the conflict in Syria. Or Serbia/Kosovo or Hutus vs Tutsis in Rwanda in the '90s.

Frankly, our version will make all of that look like an amusement park ride.

So if you see a group of people, think "mob", coming down your street what are you going to do ???

If ever we had a civil war in this country then the entire history of the world would change . Taiwan , Ukraine,. Israel ... All would fall .. Massive slaughter would ensue .. Korea , Japan, another war with China. .. There have been what 6 million fighting age males (invaders ) here in this country . The cartels have massive amounts of money for them to do its bidding. This country would never survive intact.

This country would never survive intact.

The cartels are rich by civilian standards.

But, by the standards of the US military, their entire budget is less than the "unaccounted for" money that we seem to treat like petty cash.

The DEA estimate for the Sineloa cartels entire annual revenue is $3B.

They're responsible for about 25% of the drugs smuggled into the US.

So, call it $12B for all of them. US military budget is about $900B.

And that $12B is their entire revenue. If they tried to spend that all on something that isn't selling, smuggling, or manufacturing drugs they would cease to exist.

For comparison, Tesla has about $93B in revenue.

There always seem to be forecasts like this but maybe this guy is on to something:

The 'greatest bubble in human history' is close to bursting, black-swan investor Mark Spitznagel says

Mark Spitznagel told The Wall Street Journal the government's $34 trillion debt would make the stock-market bubble's impact more extreme.

So if you see a group of people, think "mob", coming down your street what are you going to do ???

Coming down the street ?

Get the excavator and wait at the top of the driveway.

If they start coming up that they're playing real life / high stakes Donkey Kong, except it's 2 ton boulders instead of barrels LOL.

My driveway is about 150 yards and about 150 feet of elevation change. Boulders would probably be going 30mph by the time they get to the bottom LOL.

 

[GOPerfect]

I read the article. I agree with he meaning behind the words.

Who is too blame? All of us.

The elected class.

The ones that live for politics.

The media.

The Government.

Government agencies.

Police officers.

The people.

All in the US are to blame for the condition of the Country today.

Not just those on the Left. The Right holds just as much blame. The Center, they are of equal blame.

All of us.

 

[thughes]

So if you see a group of people, think "mob", coming down your street what are you going to do ???
