Am I the only one that believe the US has to go through some sort of painful transition/civil war/revolution to fix it? Is reforms from Democrats enough? (lemmy.ml)

I'm only quibbling with the right is better prepared.

The core issue for them is they are building their preparedness around "rugged individualism" and we prepare with resilient communities.

    Great point I don't see made enough. The right in the US is better armed, but preparedness involves more than just arms. Obviously creating communities and networks is incredibly important as well.

    I think that the Trump Regime has inadvertently created the communities that will resist them in the future: former military staff of good character and skill have been exiled, as have many government workers. These people will form the backbone of future governments.

    The Trump Regime has self-selected for corruption, cowardice, and servility, while creating foes that very much lack such qualities.
