Look at the lines of Military families having to stand in line to receive food. Federal workers and the military aren’t getting paid because of the MAGA shutdown which happened because Republicans are afraid the Epstein files will get released.

    Imagine the number of military personnel it would require to overthrow the government. The percentage of cooperation within the military. All the branches of the military. Do you Seriously think that kind of coordination is going to happen in this country?

    There will be no revolution. The United States is a lobster boiling in a pot. When the lobster is dead, the rich will eat it and move on. This is the only reality that Ddoesn’t require wild speculation, because it’s happening every day

      You’re implying that the coordination is going to happen to overthrow our government though. Them siding with the Fascists to overthrow our government requires the exact same coordination as them going against it. If they can’t coordinate then they can’t coordinate. You can’t magically say it only works when they’re working with the Fascists but that it’s impossible when they work against it.

        I do not believe there will be any large scale coordination. I believe we are a lobster in a pot. Our rights will slowly be removed one by one. Within a year, martial law will be declared, and the government will essentially be a legal dictatorship. Still, no one will do anything as long as they can get their Starbucks. The military will, under no circumstances, fight against the Trump administration.

        It’s not important for me that you believe me, So do or do not.
