So… you are advocating for a civil war. Just one that “your side” wins completely, this time. As if that’s a real possibility.
What action are you referring to, that you want from normal people?
I'm not advocating for it. I'm anticipating what conservatives have been demanding since the last one. The action I refer to is whatever is necessary to stop the threat.
I am not speaking a mysterious language here. You are "just asking questions" in a bad faith effort to search for some kind of gotcha moment. If history is our guide, the widespread stochastic terrorism and lynchings that will be at the heart of this new war, if it happens, will come from the right, not the left.
Conservatism is a plague of oppression and death. It always has been. We either marginalize it now or experience the violence that comes from unchecked conservatism.
Ok, I’ll just say it: calling for any kind of civil war is fucking stupid. And you’re saying you’re hard for one. Fuck you first wanting to kill people, you weird person.
That’s all I’m saying, no gotcha moment, you did that to yourself in the first fucking post. I agree with you about reactionaries, they’re a scourge. But fuck you for wanting them dead wholesale, which is your obvious call.
Conservatives in the U.S. have made it perfectly clear they will oppress and exterminate the normal people the very instant they are able. They are doing absolutely everything in their power to achieve that via government. If they should fail there, they openly plan to attempt to achieve their horrific goals by force.
Globally, conservatives have played this out time and time again. Now it's playing out locally. I believe their threats and will treat them accordingly. Angry comments will not stop me or others like me. I plan to be prolific for as long as I am able. I would much rather have peace, but conservatism has never been stopped by pacifism.
I know many don't take their threats as seriously as I do and will be angry with me. I'm fine with being hated for doing what I believe to be the right thing. The ball is in their court now, but we all know exactly what inhumane pieces of shit they are and can be sure they will do as they promise. Instead of being mad at strangers online, you should be preparing.
