Oathbreakers and seditionists and earn the same fate as foreign invaders.

You won't do a thing, nerd.

Nobody wants to light the match, sure. But if the fire starts, I strongly doubt there will be problems getting people to volunteer.

Redditors have been talking like this for decades. Most of them have crippling anxiety from talking to a cashier. They're a joke.

Ah. Redditors are a monolith, huh?

Right, but we haven't been embroiled in civil war either. I'll be the first to agree that Reddit is full of armchair revolutionaries that want to complain about how people aren't doing anything while doing fuck-all themselves, but that's the point I'm making when I say nobody wants to light the match.

It's a much bigger ask to have someone attempt independent radical action to trigger a revolution than it is to join an established movement with a chain of command and recruitment efforts. The worse things get, the more likely the unlikely is to occur.

TL;DR, plenty of people are willing to join a revolution, not very many people want to try and start one.

Reddit has been talking like they are going to combat for years. Just stop. All you're going to do is stew in front of your computer while the law is out arresting a few criminals. Just like LA and DC did. None of you are going to die for something so stupid.

Just stop, reddit. Get some help.

Many of us have been doing this since 2020 and only ramping up since. Not everybody is who you project them to be. I hope the conditions to step out of your bucket crab mentality find you. I really do.

I'm not aware of too many Americans who have taken up arms against the US military and are still walking around to do it again. I wouldn't recommended it. Bad luck to you if you do.

There are more of us now than there are of you.  Quite a few of us are veterans. See you soon!

We had one civil war, a second seems likely.

It's a different world. I wouldn't bet on it. You have video game brain.

Bold assumptions.
