Yes, this. I always laugh at the meal team 6 types that think they are going to be the Wolverines or whatever the fuck if Clinton, or Obama, or Biden were to get all tyrannical on them (yeah, right).
If some Democratic president were to ever actually go after these yokels like they imagine, they’d fold so goddamn fast.
And that goes for ANY group in the United States. But no one else but the extremist right jerks off about resisting Big Government with their little toys.
The guy operating the drone is still allergic to bullets. So is the politician giving the orders.
Submarines, stealth fighters, etc are good for fighting militaries, not anonymous armed civilians.
Insurrections armed with small arms drove the US military out of Iraq and Iran, and that’s with none of the US military changing sides because they were being ordered to aguaranheir own people.
Shy of carpet-bombing cities and nuking the countryside, a tyrannical government can’t fully shield itself from an armed population. And when they start committing that level of atrocity, the military starts breaking into factions.
Na you’re right better to just roll over and die. The war in the middle east we won decisively without question because bombs. Same with Vietnam.
American military relies on three things. American people who want to fight, logistic networks and symmetrical warfare. Take away one of the legs like in the middle east and the us military becomes useless.
Guerrilla resistance could prevent the US military from ever implementing full-on fascism in this country no matter the military, to that much I agree. But you’d need people to give a shit. They really do not seem to.
There’s a reason why America stopped doing conscription during Vietnam. Turns out that 90% of folks can’t be trained to willingly shoot people and a large fraction of the remainder would sooner shoot their own commanding officer than some poor foreign kid.
And what about when they threaten those people with killing their family, friends, and anything else they hold dear? What about demanding them or go to jail? Lose their home? Lots of things can happen.
My guy…
They can drop bombs on you from hundreds of miles away via an unmanned drone…
Would you people please remember the day and age we are in now? Holy shit.

The amount of digitaal surveillance that we’re all under is a very powerful tool however.

Try again.

Conscription.
You just don’t get it.

Are you not aware that draft dodging was a crime?
You might want to lower your expectations a bit. :)
