I think it is a race in America between all the technological changes that have taken place and, to be blunt, societal collapse. A low-level civil war in America in the next five years is the most likely answer.

Would this Low Level Civil War be the same as the Low Intensity Conflict as described in FM100-20?

Quote:

DEFINITION
Low intensity conflict is a political-military confrontation between contending states or groups below conventional war and above the routine, peaceful competition among states. It frequently involves protracted struggles of competing principles and ideologies. Low intensity conflict ranges from subversion to the use of armed force. It is waged by a combination of means, employing political, economic, informational, and military instruments. Low intensity conflicts are often localized, generally in the Third World, but contain regional and global security implications.

P< IDK, whats interesting is collectively the three attachments address current issues and in doing so, order the future intent of their community. That perspective affords them a collective POV forward. If the worlds about money, this group is msg-ing the administration of their concerns and possible outcomes.

"THE THIRD WORLD"....How do you like it ? Communism/Socialism Gov. at the Federal, State & Local level. The use of the Military to preserve peace in the Capital & protect democracy against any demonstrations. The MSM will tell you what they want you to know, not necessarily the truth or the facts. You will obey Big Tech, the CCP, the DNC...It's all down hill... enjoy the ride.

For a lighthearted dose of truth, I suggest JP Sears, awakenwithjp is his tube channel. He’s on rumble but has no videos. He looks like a hippie that reeks of patchouli and sandalwood, but his message is on point.

It will be interesting to see how long and how many of the Guard hang around in D.C. after Biden is sworn in.

There is this, and other related links that may align your POV and others. Welcome either way.

That's a good read. I've been wandering in and around that animosity for as long as I can remember, I could actually put faces with many of those remarks. There is a definite divide.

Effectively enacting marital law without doing it formally due to "credible threats".

The Narrative is to prevent Trump forming another movement. To prevent his followers from organizing.
If you voted for Trump you are a white supremacy advocate. You will need to be deprogrammed, and that may be coming your way, which will break our social bonds and usher in a lost of civility across our country.
If that happens, it will be interesting to see if infrastructure, cell towers, and all comms are hit.

Agreed.

Whether it is Blue collar vs White Collar, College Educated vs Non-College Educated, Union vs Non-Union, Rural vs City Dwellers I've always seen divisiveness and attempts by both classes to undermine the other in some fashion. Though typically the class that consider itself superior did the majority of the undermining. Even in those circumstances I had little problem working with either side. Now with MAGA vs the Establishment we seem to have nearly reached peak hostilities, and people are becoming increasingly hostile to those that do not share their view point. Much of this is to do with the non-stop White Supremacist Capital Insurgency narrative being pimped by the media, politicians and Big Tech. There's no talking to these brainwashed victims.

The brainwash victims I know are all windy, but they don't have the stones to round up anyone. So with what resources could the critters use to go about rounding up MAGA folks and send them to re-education camp?

The socialist democrats who are now in power are the college kids from the 60's, in office and in the university. This is their moment. They intend to make it the future, you will be required in the very near future to make a decision you never would have considered.
Mine is made, I choose freedom over tyranny. I choose Liberty, over adherents to ideology. I choose the right to disagree, while swearing to uphold your point of view, though I disagree, with my word and my life.
We are being forced to choose between a radical ideology vs personal responsibility and civic good.
I will not stand down.

I'm glad I live where I live and not where you live. You might consider relocating.

Stay safe!
