    The guy operating the drone is still allergic to bullets. So is the politician giving the orders.

    Submarines, stealth fighters, etc are good for fighting militaries, not anonymous armed civilians.

    Insurrections armed with small arms drove the US military out of Iraq and Iran, and that’s with none of the US military changing sides because they were being ordered to aguaranheir own people.

    Shy of carpet-bombing cities and nuking the countryside, a tyrannical government can’t fully shield itself from an armed population. And when they start committing that level of atrocity, the military starts breaking into factions.
