Do you? I've seen saber rattling coming from only one side for a couple years now.
Quite obvious to all with the violence in dem cities.

I would protect my home and family. I would not go fight anywhere.

Tens of millions of voters prove you wrong.

Did you vote last week? For anyone that says they've lost faith in the elections system, why did you bother voting?

Good Lord ...
Yup. 2022 turnout was pretty good. Of course a lot of people don't vote but apathy is nothing new. For all the so-called my vote doesn't matter, doesn't appear to hurting people voting. You had a lot of that with posters here throwing tantrums about how they were going to not vote since the cheat was in. Either they never voted anyway, lied about it and voted, or just were a statically irrelevantly small number such that their protest of not voting went unnoticed.

I did indeed vote - in Florida, where my vote actually counted. Why don't you ask the people in AZ (Maricopa county) that had to stand in line for hours and/or have their ballot rejected due to faulty tabulation machines. One in 4 machines had issues. 1 in 4. They were told to put their votes in box for tabulation later. That would be considered voter surpression if it had happened in a primarily black area.

They're apolitical.

Do you see them lining up at the polls on election day? No, you do not. They're a part of the half of our country that isn't political, and doesn't vote.

ah ok got it, you dont follow the news but you DID watch 'Warriors'.

Only right-wingers are talking about civil war or secession. They are too stupid to work out their problems. They have lost sight of our common values and are lost to America. Do you all go to sleep with visions of Belfast dancing in your heads? Rwanda? Sarajevo?

I have to laugh at the premise of this OP. Are you kidding? People can't go a day without eating or using their phone of any other modern day convenience. People get upset when their food isn't right at the drive-through. Nah, wouldn't happen. People are wayyyyy too soft these days.

I'm convinced that those who shriek loudest for Civil War never saw a day's worth of military service in their lives, much less any military combat. If they had, they'd know this isn't a thing to hope for.
