No

No.

Yes

And it's gonna be great.

only if there's an economic collapse. people are incredibly comfortable right now and see no reason to risk that comfort.

if you're interested in a civil war in the us, support sanders or whichever socialist candidate runs in 2020 and then wait 5-10 years for their policies to run everything into the ground. then you'll have your civil war.

Based noposters

They're already running society into the ground so it looks like we won't even need to wait that long.

In what way is our society being run into the ground? The situation asides from divisive politics is very much stable here.

I think considering our current political climate it's pretty far off. But if the two-party system continues to operate in such a polarized fashion and the divide between Republicans and Democrats continue to grow, it seems that the proper political climate for a civil war will have developed.

I can't wait till you're taken out in a drone strike during your second failed rebellion.

No. The confedearcy was self-sustaining. The conservative movement is the movement of rurals and olds, both of which are dying off.

>You will never drone Nathan and return to Veeky Forums to relay the good news

Not if I kill you nigger loving subhumans first.

And I absolutely intend to be the one manning the gas chambers when we turn Andersonville into an actual death camp.

The mexicans in the south will declare an independent state just like what happened in the Donbass region.

t. Quadroon

Why don't you tell me more about how this time it'll be totally different, despite the fact that both coasts are now solid blue and California is now the largest state in the nation.

I honestly want to see some Cromwell tier persecution going on. Like, make Germany and Japan look like they came out sane.

This. Politics are volatile but the amount willing to get out and do something about it is tiny.

At most we might continue to have escalating urban terrorists and mass shooters, maybe some organized resistant movements or riots, but the truth is the vast, VAST majority of US citizens are not dedicated to their causes so much that they'll sacrifice their comfy first world lives.

Add to that that the actual leadership of the US is not very extreme and in most cases will support corporate interests over ones of ideology.

Will it be called the Yankocaust?

The y'allocaust

LOL no. At this point the South has increasingly become a Northern colony and with that, an increasingly shift in political culture. At best there will probably be low scale guerrilla fighting in rural area in order to protect rural folks right to make meth.

Not to mention the entirety of the south and middle States are subsidized on taxes from the coasts.

It's funny how people believe secession is even possible anymore. The state economies are specifically made to be dependent on one another and the federal government. The South on its own wouldn't be able to maintain it's economy for more than a year.

I always prefer the response, "And stumble for the whiskey before collapsing back into the couch" to the statement of "The South will rise again"

maybe....you'd need a split in lawful authorities first though (like most civil wars). Like if after winning congress the Dems impeach Trump and he refuses to go.

It'd suck though, an American civil war would end the current global era.

>Quadroon

Quit projecting your vile nigger subhumanness onto me.

>Why don't you tell me more about how this time it'll be totally different, despite the fact that both coasts are now solid blue and California is now the largest state in the nation.

90% of Californians are fucking worthless morons who wouldn't pick up a rifle to defend themselves if the Nazis were knocking on their front door.

t. live in CA

>I honestly want to see some Cromwell tier persecution going on. Like, make Germany and Japan look like they came out sane.

And I want to hear every last Unionist scream as they're shoved face first into an oven.

Yes

Aren't you a Cuckoldfornian?

>literally fight a war for your ability to fuck niggers
>literally run by a guy named Judah
>heart of Israel support today
>accuse other people of being nigger loving kikes

Sure thing Obama

There won't be a southern succession. Not because californians and the like would actually pick up a rifle to put it down, but because the southern states budgets run a net defecit.

>Quit projecting your vile nigger subhumanness onto me

You do realize that any form of Civil War fought in the US today with any sort of emphasize placed on racial superiority is bound to fail, right? There's no longer a base of people large enough who would even be on board with it.

Just think, if Jim Webb had won the primaries we wouldn't have to deal with trump or killary rn.

>It'd suck though, an American civil war would end the current global era.

That would be wonderful. Saudi Arabia devours itself, the EU implodes, Merkel presumably gets July 20'd or executed, and Europe throws the shitskins out.

>90% of Californians are fucking worthless morons who wouldn't pick up a rifle to defend themselves if the Nazis were knocking on their front door.

>yfw you were born in a time to be a left-leaning vet from Colorado who will get to mold the Californians into a proper army.

glorious times my friends.

Okie, but yeah,

They would have killed him before he got anywhere near the White House, same with Ron Paul.

Not we round up and massacre the degenerates who have been peddling Cultural Marxism on the people for the past 150 years.

>Not because californians and the like would actually pick up a rifle to put it down

You've never been to this fetid sewer of a state have you?

I frequently have dreams of leading a band of center-left partisans under the overall command of Jim Webb

I gave that man money. My conscience is clear.

Unfortunately no.
It's disgusting how US elites fucked up the entire South America and Middle East with their coups and shady wars but will not see war on their own territory.

>mold them into a proper army
The vast majority of them have no interest in actual combat, whether you want to train them or not. Better off letting the US army put down any rebellions.

>a quadroon namefag from California LARPing as a rebel
Always gets me laughing like a motherfucker

Sounds hot as fuck.

You realize the 10% that are actually interested in fighting are all hardcore magapedes, right?

So what's up with people saying
>muh guns
Aren't they supposed to be accessile so that the population can rebel againt an unlawful government?
But barely anyone ever protests in America aside from the extreme left and extreme right
In France you see trade unionists go on strike every couple weeks or months but not in the US ven though their labor laws are 10x worse

dude, we should hang out...western US?

Shit you're right, Air Force probably wouldn't task a drone to kill a harmless autistic shitposter.

Because guns are cool and great for self defence.

Lololol
Let me let you in on a little secret. The political world is most fundamentally divided into globalists and nationalists. The left is a beacon of the former. If you think the latter is solely composed of demographics which are dying off then you've drank the coolaid my friend

>implying you could mold 400lb xyr-gendered trans-fat faggots into anything besides a blob

You'd be better off just massacring them in a Stalinesque purge to save food.

Spanish as an official language un those states when?

>California
>more obese than the south

despite fagots like you doing their best to spread divisive political cancer into every facet of American society, most Americans are quite happy with their smart phones and fidget spinners, and are too damned lazy to risk everything in a war.

Virginia.

Hence the massive Webbboner

This.

If I had a choice between fighting the Second American Civil War or jerking off to another Xration doujin, what do you think I'm going to do?

>mfw the last free men of Colorado succumb to the Texas horde.

the future sucks chums.

>despite fagots like you doing their best to spread divisive political cancer into every facet of American society

It's the nigger loving Marxists who started that. And the only way of stopping them from completely faggotizing America is systematic extermination

>what is a combat jack

He was the president we needed, but not the one we deserved.

We'll meet you in the middle East Coast bro...

>It's the nigger loving Marxists who started that
I don't care who started it, cut it out. >systematic extermination
sure thing Cletus. Then you'll be able to fuck all your slave women in peace. No more commie abolitionists telling you to stop. ;^)

Global rule 3 is enforced on this board, please delete your post.

>>systematic extermination

waging total war against a majority of the US population is ill-advised friend....

Shouldn't you be busy getting more democrats elected in deep red states, Steve Bannon?

>The political world is most fundamentally divided into globalists and nationalists

>This is what trump literally and unironically believes

epic

Both Republicans and Democrats are essentially globalists, Republicans just pretend they're not.

The concept of guns being important to give people the power to stop an unjust government went out the window when planes and tanks were invented. The population being armed makes no difference when the government has access to drone bombers and satellite tracking.

As for the problem of lack of protest, like I said Americans ultimately lead very cushy lives. Even the lowest class live relatively comfortable lives. Additionally the country's labor force is completely controlled by corporations and unions, both tend to be corrupt and not have the worker's interest in mind.

Whether by design or not, in the US the relationship between consumers and producers, and citizens to authority, is balanced almost perfectly so that people have neither the will nor the ability to try and not comply with the system. This is why there are so many conspiracy theories about the gubmint putting mind control drugs in the water or evil corporations brainwashing people with advertising, the system so perfectly keeps people in line and spending money while a small percentage get ludicrously wealthy that some people think it's TOO perfect to be the natural evolution.

>despite fagots like you doing their best to spread divisive political cancer into every facet of American society
Literally "no u", it's not le racist whites using their control of the entire West's media to demonize their least favorite demographic

...

>Republicans just pretend they're not

France didn't bust up a bunch of unions in the '80s, nor does their labor market have a glut of supply.

Good point.

You have not strike against homesexual mariage or other abomination in France a lot of people like to do strike not only the left ?

go back to /pol/ and never come back, you religious fucknut.

>scared of foreigners
Cool way to frame in-group preference as some kind of pathological cowardice
>scared of racists
Cool way to frame (naive) futurist universalism as some kind of pathological cowardice

It's a favorite trick of (((you know who))) to discredit any ideologies by way of framing them as being a reflection of some kind of pathology of character or self-image or lack of intelligence. This ties in nicely with bourgeois elitism which reduces human worth to the single variable of wealth, and together the two groups are really great at producing societies which are objective psychosocial nightmares serving the interests of a small sociopath-heavy elite

Try posting after you pass lesson two in your pirated Rosetta Stone English

I also reject the implied parity between liberal and "conservative" news sources. Fox News is the media equivalent of the Republicans, i.e. the Democrats 10 years ago and at the end of the day totally committed to globalism by virtue of being controlled by a giant transnational corporation

That was a lot of buzzwords, but zero rebuttal.

If anything, you demonstrated my point that most Americans with a double digit IQ are now flailing about randomly because of bullshit that snake oil salesmen fed them.

Plus the fact that it's like, Fox News, a handful of websites, and some talk radio hosts versus everything else

I'm sorry you're too much of a brainlet to understand

>It's a favorite trick of to discredit any ideologies by way of framing them as being a reflection of some kind of pathology
>producing societies which are objective psychosocial nightmares serving the interests of a small sociopath-heavy elite
but your not trying to discredit anyone by framing them as pathological, right? Only a dirty (((you know who))) would do that! :^)

If you can't make an argument without resorting to your echo chamber's buzzwords you don't have an argument that holds weight outside of your echo chamber.

Try again.

This. As soon as I saw those triple parenthesis I already knew that said poster was guilty of the crime he was accusing others of.

>it isn't that somebody could understand my argument and decide against it
>I'm just misunderstood

This is the coping mechanism for most losers. Winners don't think this way.

All cable news is cancer, no exceptions.

If it isn't associated with a dead tree in some way, be very careful about believing anything they tell you.

The only thing I'm trying to discredit is the extremely tired trope of "people's views can be reduced to just being a delusion borne of some kind of internalized pathology of self-image or lack of success", it has been the memetic equivalent of herpes since (((Freud))) first developed it and in reality serves as, wait for it, a tool that the bourgeoisie and (((other members))) of the elite can use to write off anyone who disagrees with them as "too beta to get it"

What are you confused about?

I agree

Refer to the first part of this post for my explanation of why calling me a loser is a non-argument defense mechanism against opposing ideas

>Not to mention the entirety of the south and middle States are subsidized on taxes from the coasts.
This is dishonest. This is including all Federal spending, not just welfare checks. Texas for instance is so high on the list because of military bases and defense industries.

>All cable news is cancer, no exceptions.
yeah but CNN is stage 1 esophageal cancer, and FOX is rectal cancer that's metastasized.

What does that make MSNBC?

/thread

I don't intend to describe (((their))) behavior as in any way pathological, it's perfectly rational and healthy if you take as given that their primary motivation is fanatical ethnocentrism

>people's views can be reduced to just being a delusion borne of some kind of internalized pathology of self-image or lack of success

I'm not trying to reduce the views of every member of society.

I'm trying to explain a very recent cultural shift in American society, by explaining the economic and societal factors that drive political polarization.

There are many Americans to are capable of rationally analyzing events and coming to independent conclusions.

It's just that cable news, fear mongering, and sensationalism have created cancer.

>What are you confused about?
Nothing, I understand perfectly what you're trying to say. I also recognize that you're full of shit because you can't or won't articulate your ideas in your own words.

>I'm trying to explain a very recent cultural shift in American society, by explaining the economic and societal factors that drive political polarization.
I think that this often boils down to what I'm talking about, ergo the only reason rural and suburban retard disagree with the liberal consensus is because they're insecure about being poor, they're insecure about losing their jobs to immigrants, they didn't have the social wealth to get a proper education, etcetera. Inversely liberal urbanite wealth is a reflection of / reward which follows from their having the right sort of opinions, a reflection of their being "better networkers" / "able to thrive in a more socially connected and conscious workplace" ("I'm cooler than you" in as many words), more educated, on the right side of history, and so on. Things which don't exist in this worldview: intelligent conservatives, people who aren't social strivers, virtue which isn't reflected as wealth
>There are many Americans to are capable of rationally analyzing events and coming to independent conclusions.
The Eternal Normie
>It's just that cable news, fear mongering, and sensationalism have created cancer.
I suppose I agree, but I also want to observe how easily these sorts of charges can be used to dismiss dissenting opinions

>What is Iraq, what is Afghanistan
Complete and utter shitholes that even the most wingnut militia types wouldn't be willing to subject themselves to similar living conditions?

>your own words
There's nothing wrong with encapsulating ideas and concepts in tropes / memes. Yes perhaps le sinister merchant meme is a little overused but it also immediately invokes an image / framework for looking at Jews which probably took hours to get into your head (in total, over time). I'm a big Israel supporter btw

They're also good examples of how "a couple retards with AK-47's" can render a country a war zone requiring a multi-gorillion dollar a second occupation force to stabilize. Right wing militia LARPers could effectively disrupt the functioning of American society to the point that, if the public wanted a return to normalcy, they'd either have to compromise with them or wage a massive, long, incredibly expensive, brutal counterinsurgency which would probably end up bankrupting and delegitimizing the government

I'm not sure my original post actually contradicts anything you believe.

I'm saying, the profit motive for media outlets explains political polarization just as well as the ((()))

I also firmly believe that electronics have turned everyone, liberal and conservative into autists with smaller social groups, less empathy, and less perspective on life in general.

As a colorado native I tell you to fucking kill yourself. Wish you'd got your leg blown off by a hajji kid. But you were probably deployed in Germany jacking off to hatsune miku figurines all day.

>Democrats are about twice as likely as Republicans to have received food stamps at some point in their lives
The South is poor because of Democrat voters (Africans), both the South and the middle states are pretty well off when you look at the state government finances.
Can we put this tired meme to bed, yet?

>I'm not sure my original post actually contradicts anything you believe.
heh sorry I may have leapt to conclusions without reading carefully
>I'm saying, the profit motive for media outlets explains political polarization just as well as the ((()))
So the thing is I almost agree, but I think there's a specifically ethnomasochistic characteristic to how this "demonizing racists" focus has developed over time that wouldn't happen in the absence of some (((malign influence))). I see various points (Hart-Celler, "Look Who's Coming To Dinner", Reagan amnesty, etc.) where the group of white men in charge would have had their ethnocentric interests involuntarily assert themselves and cause them to go "fuck this!" if they didn't feel the need to justify themselves to (((someone else))) who was standing in the room next to them at the time and who they couldn't just go "we shouldn't do this because it isn't in the ethnic interests of whites" to. The rest of the world has also undergone crazy changes in the past 100 years; none of them made the kind of super ethnomasochistic decisions that we did except those where there were Jews. East Asia remains East Asia, but we're 56%land
>I also firmly believe that electronics have turned everyone, liberal and conservative into autists with smaller social groups, less empathy, and less perspective on life in general.
I pretty much agree. I give some credit to the "autists are humans trying to evolve" idea though. Veeky Forums is influential in large part because it's autistic userbase are fish swimming in water in this autistic, antisocial world, whereas normies struggle and drown

It's not dishonest it's the plain truth. Federal spending keeps up most of the south and Midwest. Welfare, military spending, farming subsidies, etc. All of it.
