Comment on YSK: A real American Civil war will NOT be like Battlefield or COD.
wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 4 weeks agoNo, my smart idea was to stop this all from happening on election day. Ever since that fell through, I’m all out of ideas.
Any “leftist” who boycotted the vote shares partial responsibility for the mess we’re in. Kamala Harris wasn’t perfect enough? Trump just gave Israel $3.3 billion for their military.
Anyone who would let a fascist take over because they couldn’t vote for a liberal is a leftist in name only. So stop blaming the people who are saying “a revolution is not going to make things better.”

So your smart idea is that people should do nothing to fix the errors of the past?

Is your smart idea to get your friends and neighbors bombed by the US military?

My smart idea is to people resist getting kidnapped, tortured and even killed. Maybe if your family ever become victims of ICE you will understand. I hope it never happen

Sure, if they’re apprehended by ICE, by all means they can choose to resist. But if they’re outnumbered it probably won’t be effective, and will only increase the amount of brutality they’re subjected to.
Plus, if there aren’t any legitimate charges to book them with, fighting back gives agents the charge they need. Otherwise there’s a higher chance of being released.
And if you don’t fight back, then they might shoot you, as is evident by now. But if you do fight back, then they’ll probably shoot you. So what degree of risk are you willing to accept? Cause it’s a sliding scale, not a coin flip.
