There is nothing to gain from a civil war.
Every Modern Country that has gone through one has had a devestating drop in per capita income, and a complete reduction on lifestyle as the electric grids, roads, and other systems of modern convience were destroyed.
It'd be worse here.
This whole rush to buy guns and ammo and call for a civil war, is simply based on fear.
The world is changing, and civil war won't bring back the past,
it will only destroy the future of everyone's kids and grandkids.
I think we will make it though this ok,
Social Media is amplfying it,
But there are too many people in power, who will lose power, if the above were to happen.
At some point in time, the Republican party will move back towards reclaiming the moderates, and when it does, it will align both parties into the prevention of what we are seeing publically said today. Right now the Republican Party is relying on all those who think this way for votes.
I also believe that Younger black males, and significant subsets of the hispanic population will eventually move more towards the Republican Party, and that we have already seen this begin.
As that happens it will give a second reason for the R's to move to the middle, and away from the groups pushing this apotlyptic agenda.
While I think all out civil war will be avoided, I do think we will see more OKC type event in the future, and for a while a continued increase in mass shootings, both in number and in scope.
We are in for a few bumpy decades. That is for sure. We've lanced a boil, its ugly, its going to take time to heal. But we'll be better on the other side.
