It's become a meme to ask Americans at what point they will use their supposed 2nd amendment rights to start shooting at magas. And it has become similarly a bit of a meme to laugh at the ignorant non-americans for suggesting it.

But let's be real. When the magas are threatening to abolish your democracy, you yanks need to make a counter-threat of violence to keep it. It doesn't even need to be "serious". That drunk "we have guns too" lady is actually a fantastic start. But it needs to be followed up by more senior Democrats and I'm not talking about chuck schumer, just someone above "drunk candidate in Fayette county". Someone needs to say that if the Republicans enact martial law there will be blood. Say it jokingly. Say it in wacky wink wink way. But fucking say it. Get your wackiest weirdo politician to actually put the gun on the table.

If you don't, then at some point it becomes a matter whether you actually care about your democracy. Like, fuck, maybe you don't.
