I don't really agree with the balkanization thought you have. I think that's super complicated and who knows.

Yeah its definitely a bit of a stretch, but fun to speculate on. I pick up on it cause the US isnt a real "nation", it's only fueled by white supremacy and settler/imperial dominance. There aren't many places to dominate, and the primary "culture" that binds the people is capitalist consumption (which more isolating than binding. The economic bonds are strong though, I dont really see them unravelling very easily (which is why the best-case would be a EU-type beat).

Idk but thanks for letting me yap a bit comrade.

    I just think that the idea the fash win that 99/100 is not correct. Maybe that's my hopium but I gotta be honest I think they're in for a real nasty surprise and the fash don't really do well regarding their own hubris and estimating their enemies.

    So much of the conservative political movement has been astroturfed and even this DSA revival has been real people putting real work in. And as much shit as the DSA gets, there's some real radicals in there dragging the org left.

    If and when the shooting starts, these communities are already built, the relationships are there. That's really hard to defeat even with the loose organizing like patriot front.
