Not the people fighting for what's right. America is spread too far out to properly gather any sort of a large enough force to do real fighting, unless you're the government with an already existing force spread across the entire country. And like with any civil war, both sides simultaneously lose and win since both sides are..ya know..technically the same. Infighting resulting in massive casualties only benefits other countries looking to take over that ego stroking title of "worlds strongest"
All that to say...nobody will win, we all lose.
Theres a simple thing people can do... just dont show up for work for weeks. The fat cats in wallstreet would be crying to appease the peasants.
Oh that’s so simple! Why didn’t we think of that!
o_o
You underestimate the desperation in this country and the lack of social support networks and the amount that that would devastate so many working class people within a week.
Let alone how difficult it is to organize that without interference or sabotage
Perfect. Even easier to convince people to fuck the grind and raid the groceries stores.
I really hope so.
