Comment on If a revolution started tomorrow in the US to get rid of Trump, could the majority of society use hit and run tactics successfully? Or what would be the tactics the rebels would use?

You’re assuming the military would take part. If there was open rebellion in the US, it would probably cause a fracture in every branch of the military. The ones who leave would likely take up arms with the rebels, bringing their strategic and tactical expertise.

The problem is the legitimate government will have the majority of production. Just because it’s super hard to run a factory that is getting pounded by artillery. And just like last time the rebels will have a hard time sourcing arms and ammo.

I’m just very curious about a specific hypothetical and everyone wants to answer it in context. That’s normally a good thing and maybe I’m in the wrong community to ask this, but for this question the context is irrelevant.

Let’s say it’s not Washington who nukes them, maybe there is no military anymore, maybe it’s not even a nuke. None of the details matter.

Are 3M people overwhelming for the full capabilities of a modern government?
