Who's really going to resist when the shit actually hits the fan?

Of all the "enemies within" that might fight back, I doubt it's going to be Democrats, radical leftists, or even settled "mongrel hordes" that will be the most troublesome or heroic, depending on how you feel about democracy and basic social values.

My guess is, as Rick Wilson lays out, the harshest resistance and retribution for Trumpist crimes against humanity will lean more conventionally right than left.

Doubtful. Historically even the "traditional" right will look at the violence of fascism as distasteful but will ultimately side with them because it brings about the same end goals.

And most of the "traditional" right in the US are proving the left correct that many are no different they just care about optics.


The people who claim Charlie Kirk was not a racist and get mad when you point out all the racist things he said.


I think the biggest thing that made this easy for Trump is generations of Americans purged the left any anyone capable of fighting back.

The SRA is noble but I doubt they have the numbers, and thanks to a variety of factors groups like the Panthers have just been turned into the flip side of the KKK and any leftists or revolutionary potential has been crushed there.

I mean there's people in the streets openly trying to protest and block the military occupation of their cities and they aren't on the right. That's literally resistance.
So far it seems like alot of people are just alot of talk. I mean I get it. Nobody wants to live in a warzone or a civil war. But looking around for someone else to do it doesn't help anyone.

@AuRevoir I like the word copium.
You can't violently win democracy. So, pound of harder! Americans need a total victory. You deserve that!

It’s not clear to me what Stephen Miller’s goal is. So much cos play going on.

Up until regular people are about to literally starve to death, it's always going to be the most mentally ill and desperate people fighting back. Rational, well-adjusted people aren't going to throw away their lives fighting the most powerful government in the world.
