This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Me a Europoor master race :)

Looks like all that wealth you go in your tech elite is really going great isnt it.

You know that bullshit gets tired.

People acting like the armed left isn't preparing.

Like, motherfuckers, the loud 2a advocates were all right wing. The motherfuckers this fake motherfucker is whining about are the ones backing this shit.

But, more important, why does every motherfucker shooting their mouth off about this think that you win a fucking civil war by just going out and shooting things? Like, does nobody get that attacks need useful intelligence, planning, logistics, transportation, and it can't be out in the open, you gotta either fight it guerilla, or you're just dead.

People are fucking morons.

Exactly the point of everyone who ever pointed out that your guns are completely useless if your government ever goes off the rails.

Sorry, I forgot they were supposed to provide you personally with a detailed overview of their plans on a public forum lmao

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I wasn't the one who used the "the armed left is preparing" argument in a public forum. I just consider it a stupid argument to use if there isn't any evidence that that is happening.

You know that words mean things and you can't just use them randomly because you don't like what someone said

[–] [email protected] 1 points 27 minutes ago

I won't believe the left is actually seriously preparing until I start seeing some Onion links around. We're probably on a list just for using Lemmy, which is notoriously leftist, and talking about this stuff publicly, unveiled, with a registered account is honestly below Hegseth level OPSEC

Well, the other side of it is that it doesn't matter how good your planning and logistics are if you only have rocks to throw when you get there

Nobody with a lick of sense ever said that a civil war against an established and well equipped government was going to be fought on battlefields, lined up and infantry vs civilian infantry.

And it takes more than guns, as the Iraqis and Afghanis showed. But calling guns useless in a revolution or civil war, much less as a resistance or insurgency is just stupid.

I feel like it'd have to be a lot like Vietnam, with vets communicating 1 on 1 with soldiers, convincing them not to side with the government (trump has marginalized vets, after all). A military coup would be the best case scenario here. You convert his military, you remove his power.

Guns are pretty much giving the government the excuse to just shoot you as a crazy gun nut (or extremist group,...) and shoot you without any morale repercussions in the people they use to do so and without any PR nightmare in the greater population for them.

The alternative being?

just use signal, heard it’s pretty good

[–] [email protected] 1 points 31 minutes ago

It actually is good, though. Russians are resorting to sync scams in Ukraine so they can get intel, if Signal was breached they wouldn't need to do it

“We’re good on OPSEC”

[–] [email protected] 15 points 7 hours ago

It actually is, up to a point.

We gotta go all malcom x on this bitch

By any means necessary

In the Internet age? Good luck

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 minutes ago

we've been in the "internet age" for almost 30 years now.

we're in the algorithm, AI, deepfake age now, the Methods and tactics used for an Information war in the 2000s was less effective in the 2010s, and all but obsolete in the 2020s
