“And so I come full circle on this response and just want to encourage you with some substance that we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be,” he said.

    I think patriot front goons are gonna shit themselves and fall down the second one of them gets their head exploded. These are not an army. These are - at best - overcompensating racists who enjoy watching stuff blow up good. At worst, sociopaths and highly paranoid incels with nothing to lose and no one to talk to. Are they gonna take over downtown? No. They might kill a few people, be the news item o’the week, standard mass shooter stuff but with matching little bandanas.

    Look these chuds come marching out of a uhaul, and one of them takes a shotgun in the gut - invasion over. Horrifying, wrong-at-all-levels, a failure of society, government, education, and media, yes. But not a threat to the US Army. Or, hell, most over-militarized police units.

    Now, individual acts of terrorism? Taking over East Bumble’s bad neighborhood? Yeah, possible. For awhile. These are guys who only talk and cosplay. Yes a little target practice and hey some calisthenics to unify the sweaty bros or whatever else they get up to at Camp Grab Ass. They are radicalized, they are individually dangerous, but they aren’t going to meet up at the state capitol and taliban their way into running the department of transportation.
