Maybe some (feels disingenuous to say all) 'pubicans actually fantasize about some Phantom Menace toe-to-toe phalanx of pickup trucks and pre-assault-weapons-ban collectibles vs. the might of an empire.
But that lazy “they have drones tho” excuse is really used to wave off any responsibility, I think. One can be the most bleeding-heart socialist and still believe in defending themselves and their neighbors.
It’s scary to think about, and it sucks. I just wanted to make videogames and occasionally shoot for fun as a hobby, not contemplate if I’m ready to defend myself against tyranny within a collapsing former world superpower. But I think we ignore the possibilities at our extreme peril.
Also, a large amount of the U.S military would probably side with us, for upholding the Constitution if not for their families’ sake.
It really wouldn’t be pretty. We don’t want it to come to that, and I honestly don’t think it will, but they’re not a bunch of brainless stormtroopers.
The rightoids are busy being insufferable and getting uninvited from all their families’ Thanksgivings, so maybe their cynical individualism will reduce their threat potential lol.
Because people say stupid shit like “but they have laser-guided drones and you have a rifle!”
Fucking idiots do not understand how revolution works and dont know that the US military has failed every invasion.
Yes! Please! Louder for those in the back!
