Can We Get Out of This Without a Civil War?
Kurt Schlichter


America is in crisis, with the left battling the ascendant right, a clash of visions between a socialist nightmare in which America becomes either a feudal, feral combination of California and a communist college campus or we re-make it into something like the glorious, golden country it once was. How does all this end? Leftists in America— and the Democrats are a leftist party that is eagerly embracing admitted communists— seem to be under the impression that normal patriotic Americans have no right to engage in their own self-governance. That’s unsustainable. We’re not giving up our self-determination. The question is whether America resolves this peacefully, as we should, or whether the Democrats spark another civil war, something I write about in my new novel American Apocalypse: The Second American Civil War, released on July 17th.

It’s time to face the question forthrightly. After all, the last time we patriots tried to deprive Democrats of their servile class, they chose war. We’re depriving them of another now, and they are losing their minds. Right now, they are choosing obstruction, having halfwit left-wing federal judges— they weren’t confirming them because they were legal geniuses— essentially declare that anything Donald Trump does is unlawful. Legally speaking, his actions are not unlawful. They are not even close to being unlawful, and the Supreme Court has been swatting these judicial ankle-biters down left and right. But there are hints that leftist frustration at not being able to force us to submit via lawfare is pushing them toward violence. We know because they say so. The Democrat base is demanding more radicalism in the face of their political losses. We’ve seen the polls that say over half of them think it’s morally OK to murder the president. Their street thug catspaws are shooting at cops enforcing our democratically enacted immigration laws, as well as murdering citizens.

Can We Get Out of This Without a Civil War?

Probably not.

Can We Get Out of This Without a Civil War?

Probably not.

Right! But I'll assure you, it won't be civil.

[Free Vulcan]

Kurt, love ya man, but who exactly is going to fight for the other side?

[mountaineer]

I'm not selling any weapons until things settle down, I know that much.

[DefiantMassRINO]

Dems need to lose some more.

Once they see MAGA is not transitory, they'll be forced to adapt if they want to be relevant or return to power.

Dems hope MAGA is a short-lived fever.  They and the GOP Establishment have yet to understand that MAGA is a complete repudiation of the New World Order of Bush '41 and later Presidents.

Americans no longer want the rest of the world to f--k them up the @$$ without lube and a reacharound.

The American Government has been working against the American People since 1988.  No more.  No mas.  Basta!

I sense that if America "gets out of" our current predicament -- whether peacefully or otherwise -- what will emerge is not one nation, but... several.

When have you seen such "division" previously?
Not even in the mid-late 1960's.

Where the Congress is almost evenly divided, in the same way that it was in the pre-War Between the States time when states had to be admitted to the Union "two-by-two" to preserve "the balance" of opposing powers...

I don't care what the polls show as to the popularity of the dcommunists. Look at California, Oregon, Washington state, Massachusetts, New York.
How are you getting these states "back into the fold" short of armed struggle?

[DefiantMassRINO]

The most expedient way to get the remaining Blue States back in the fold is by counting illegal migrants in the 2030 US Census and towards House District Re-apportionment.  Hence, Biden's Open Border.

FTA:

We’re kulaks, wreckers and looters, literal Nazis, and therefore unworthy not only of the right to participate in our own governance but of basic civil rights like the right to speak freely, to worship freely, and, heaven forbid, to own guns --

The enemy has control of most of society, and now they're turning the people who oppose them into unhumans --- and throughout history this never ends well for the people so designated.

Kurt, love ya man, but who exactly is going to fight for the other side?

Those blue spots are concentrated stupidity...

[Right_in_Virginia]

Those blue spots are concentrated stupidity...

Don't lose sight that those blue spots are concentrated power.

In 2020, it took only five of those spots to accomplish the most fearlessly public coup against the American citizen in our history.

The red spots generate the electricity, provide the food, harbor the watersheds.
Power is real or it is fabricated.
When the blue spots start eating their pets, we can talk about power.

Kurt, love ya man, but who exactly is going to fight for the other side?

Funny, one side would be fighting under the US flag while the other side will be arguing over what grievance groups should or should not be represented on their flags.

And a little CHAZ for each one of them.

[Free Vulcan]

I'm more worried about collapse, anarchy, and fracturing than I am civil war, unless it's some rogue Rat presidency manufacturing a crisis and attempting to suspend the Constitution to declare martial law, which I don't think would last long.

I look more to a solar flare, EMP, financial collapse due to our debt, or other external black swan events before a straight up civil war.

Have you read any of them?

I have. His series about America both during and after a civil war are very good reading.

I just D/Led this one to my Kindle.  His Peoples Republic series is good fiction.

[rustynail]

Have you read any of them?

Have not.  Nothing wrong with selling his book. Does he remind anyone of Matt Bracken?

[Cyber Liberty]

Yeah, actually.  If you liked Matt, you'll like the Peoples Republic series by Kurt.

The trouble with a civil war is when you have enough bullets to fight an aggression from the north.
