When I asked people in 2020, “When do we fight back?” I was called fedboi. Shut up. Don’t cause trouble. Be afraid. Some of those same exact people are giving the same exact advice these days.
“How dare you talk about civil war! Real veterans don’t want civil war! Shut up!”
Dude. No one wants Civil War, unless you’re an idiot or a serial killer. I do not believe in starting fights. I generally don’t even get to the point where I need to deescalate, I just disengage entirely. I see an idiot, and I break contact as soon as possible, immediately if I’m able. But how many dead Republicans does it take before we look around and conclude: we’re in a civil war? Will killing Trump do it? Vance? Rubio? Homan? The entire cabinet? Will Antifa have to invade a nice peaceful red county and burn it down? What does it take to get people to realize that the good communists on the left don’t want peace? They don’t want to reason. They don’t want to make a deal. They want anyone who disagrees with them dead.

It only seems now, after Charlie Kirk was killed, that everyone has seen the true face of the Democrat Party. They are the enemies of Western civilization. When they declare war on whole civilizations, they want everybody in that civilization dead. They want to kill you, rape your wives, your daughters, and indoctrinate your children as slaves.
This seemed evident to me in 2020. Why does it feel like everyone else was asleep? Why does it only feel like everyone is waking up today? And these are just the people who are supposed to be “on my side.”
Do I suggest being paranoid? No. Do I suggest keeping your head on a swivel? That should go without saying. I’m originally from New York, keeping your head on a swivel was just common sense. But if you are wearing a MAGA hat in a deep blue area, I would definitely be keeping up on the range practice. I would make certain to have some additional skills. I would definitely get acquire some kind of weapon and train with it. I don't care if it is a knife, a gun, a tactical baton, pepper spray, whatever.
