Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

There will be no "civil war" until republicans win again.
Cops are gonna cop either way (so do nothing other than find the nearest brown kid they can beat on until The Public gets mad enough that they have to act). Even a bunch of untrained gravy seals with ar-15s are going to leave the cops shitting themselves and crying while they play gacha games on their phones. It is the military (mostly National Guard) who are going to matter.
And Jan 6 already showed how that plays out. They are going to do whatever they are ordered to. So if the POTUS is actively trying to murder the VPOTUS and the president pro tem and so forth? Doesn't matter because the person they report to is telling them to not act or, after seeing Jan 6 "fail", to impose martial law to protect the country. Just.. not over there. We got some uppity negros what need putting down first.
If anyone who actually cares about the country is in power (so... Democrats and a very small subset of third parties)? We roll up on the gravy seals with a few drones that drop tear gas and we are done. If it is the republicans? It won't be a "civil war" so much as a series of lynchings.
Can you imagine if the Jan 6er's had to go longer than say what, 12 hours? These pastey white middle aged men would be wrapping it up to goto waffle house as soon as the sun went down.
No. They'd have water and food delivered to them by the police. Just look at all the BLM Protests.
