Antifa, released criminals and illegals on one side. I mean that's the whole point.

Another US civil war will never happen. Ever. People simply don't care enough.
People love to talk behind a keyboard but not many will take action. Kinda like talk of Texas seceding. Won't happen.
It will eventually happen. Anyone that says they know when is either trying to sell something or is just a fool.
most Americans are fat and attached to their iphone who exactly will be fighting this war>

while i do not believe a civil war in the historical context is plausible i would not be so dismissive as some of you are stating. if you know your history you know that the civil war was cold for approximately 3 decades before it actually started. it was brewing/ simmering. the point is just because people have spoken abkut it for a few years and it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it can't or won't. it means these things don't happen over night they build to a crescendo.

No civil war will ever happen when stock market is making all time highs. Only way it would ever happen is in an economic collapse.

If I had a dollar for every single time someone has claimed that CW2 was imminent, I could have retired years ago.
And people who actually want a civil war have no clue what they're wishing for.
It will not be one army vs. another.
It would be a widespread guerrilla war with citizen against citizen that would make The Troubles look like a backyard brawl.

This.
I think we have far more in common with people that vote differently, and even share different values than us, than we do with politicians or political influencers/pundits.
The guy down the street with the Bernie bumper sticker, and the guy up the street wearing a MAGA hat both want a roof that doesn't leak, food in the fridge, safety/security for their family & themselves etc.
The last thing on the planet I want to do is go to war, and put my beliefs to the side, to murder other human beings...but I would if I had no other choice.
Nobody should ever want that. Things are not anywhere near that bad.

I think it is more likely that we break off into separate countries before we have a civil war.
I wouldn't be surprised, either, if rural Californians go guerilla on the big cities and take them over.
Balkanizing? I mean, we have one precedent so far here in the US. Which led directly to the ACW.
I don't think it's truly feasible as we sit now. We are farrrr to intermixed to have any sort of true divide on state lines. As mentioned above, if anything were to happen it would be true block by block division and fighting IMO. Which is about as worst case as I can think of.

I don't know man...listening to Nick Fuentes on Dave Smith podcast yesterday, they both made some really good points as to why they think some type of true political unrest is more likely than us all coming together and just agreeing to disagree...or agreeing on any type of comon goal or vision.
And it is largely demographic, and the demographic changes were FORCED ONTO US. INTENTIONALLY.
Essentially, "you are going to have an unrecognizable America, and your children will inherit a completely unrecognizable America from the one you were so fortunate to enjoy". It is going to be a brown one, with everyone putting their own competing self interests above all others....and it is going to be A-OK to hate whites, especially white males. Gen Z ain't havin it though....and it could very well lead to chaos.
I don't have a racist bone in my body, but I look around at what Houston has become on an almost daily basis, and it is sad. The place was awesome in the 80's and 90's. Now it's like little Mogadishu.
If you went to Italy or Korea and told them, over the next 10-15 years, we are going to ABSOLUTELY FLOOD your country with third world migrants/french people/Muslims/whatever....NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MINDS WOULD VOTE FOR THAT. And that doesn't make them "racist" or "bigoted". It makes them just normal, smart humans.

People who want power or can manipulate others to fight so that they can have power. Read some history.

In 2024-2025:
- Charlie Kirk shooting
- Shooting at a Mormon church
- Shooting at a Catholic school
- Two Minnesota Legislators killed
- Trump assassination attempts
- Antifa riots
That is just off the top of my head. It feels like there is a heightened level of political violence that has been escalating dramatically in the last 15-20 years.

What do you do when that 'nice' Bernie guy down the street wants to have your kids kidnapped by the state for not affirming LGBTQ ideology OR he wants them taken from you because you wont give them a COVID clot shot ?
The Bernie guy down the street, tbh, is NOT nice. He's a friggin communist who would have you shot to advance the collective. Or worse yet - make your kids pull the trigger.

For over four centuries our people have assimilated from diverse racial, ethnic, and religious traditions to create a nation full of prosperity and opportunity. Tucker is pimping replacement theory nonsense. Gotta keep that geriatric gold-hoarding demographic on their toes.

Why? Maybe Kimmel and his ilk are the ones that need to be restrained!
