We are at a crossroads. Either we implode into autocracy or we explode into civil war and / or revolution. At the moment, at least, it definitely looks as though we’re just going to slowly transform into a “managed democracy” like Russia or Hungary and that will be that.
I just can’t believe that the Americans would actually risk their “lives and scared honor” in the real world to the point that we might actually have a revolution and / or civil war.
It just doesn’t seem possible at this point.
The only way I could maybe, just maybe see a civil war or revolution happening is if the SAVE Act passes. That might cause enough frustration to build up within the American political system that we might actually collapse into revolution and or civil war.
Or, I could see if Trump tried to cancel the 2026 midterms for some reason. Then, yeah, I could see a civil war / revolution (prompted by the Blues.)
And, lastly, if Trump ran for a third term in 2028, that, too, would probably be enough for the country to be pushed into chaos that would resemble a civil war or revolution.
