I feel like we’re very much in the territory the U.S. population should start getting armed (if they are not already), and learning how to safely use, maintain, and store their firearms.
When the workforce finally does mass protest, it should have the means to defend itself from the unconstitutional violence the state is going to use against them.
There are more firearms than people in the US. The problem is the vast majority of them are owned by people who are cool with how the government is being run at the moment. Even if they weren’t, our government is perfectly capable of drone strikes. We the people are outgunned.
We are not outgunned. They can’t drone strike their workforce and still project power, that’s always a silly point to me. Also, not all military personnel will giddily bomb their own country. An armed rebellion situation will be really messy. Insurgencies don’t need to outgun the regime they’re against, they need to outlast and make the costs too big to stomach.
You’re right more right wingers own guns. My point is it’s time more left wingers own guns. No reason to have a pathetic defeatist attitude.
