    Not really. Perhaps people could foresee some dissatisfaction with Trumps presidency, but this article is talking about a longer trajectory, as in building towards all out civil war.

    I don’t think that’s a generally held opinion amongst americans.

      In fact it’s quite common, most people I know were expecting civil war when the turd won the second time.

          It’s larger than 1, which is the number of people of people the article is holding up as some kind of Cassandra.

          Well the sample size is probably sufficient, there’s obviously a bias toward woke folk though.

            That’s the problem. You’re hanging out with too many “MuH vIoLEnT RevOlUtiOn!!!” types. If you want the system to fail, of course you’re going to see every reason why it would fail.

              What? That’s not what woke means. Aside from that, every sane person would want a system with Turd at the helm to fail.

              Hey actively hates ML here, for once the bastards ain’t wrong. Even my largely offline friends can practically feel it, we’re hoping for a Soviet or Yugoslavia style break up since us being on the West Coast would keep us a good bit from the immediate blast radius. The Great Basin, Sonora, and Mojave are great buffer regions.
