I don't think they're going to let a little thing like the laws get in the way of a good time.

How about a national militia of tesla burners?

I remember the Russian military recruitment offices burning these past years, and their railroads getting sabotaged.

The western press proudly stated "this is what happens when you don't allow people to protest, they turn to sabotage".

But I guess this administration missed the memo.

Lol, lmao even. There is, and will be, no "national militia." What's going to happen is that the American people will sit in their couches, maybe cry, and say "why is this happening to us, somebody save us." Anything that doesn't take effort.

We are quite factually already NOT doing that. Get involved with a movement before you post doomer shit like this. Remember, every war we ever lost has been against fighters that blend in with the population. Its why we lost Vietnam, why we lost in Bush's little scandal, and why they'll lose when Trump tries to do this. Our biggest hurdle isnt getting people off their asses.

"yeah this thread is discussing how the American people are actively burning teslas and dealerships and all that but ameriturds totally won't do anything"

I'm watching news every day about how the Turd Reich is cracking down on anything that opposes them, but yeah the people totally aren't doing a thing.
