in some cases

that doesent discribe every policy of socialism but for the ones it does i agree

@Timcast Possible project? I saw this guy’s video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=px_V_oKyzU8&t=146s

And it occurred to me, that his “drive the length of the border” project might make for an interesting “in the field” piece of reporting work for you and Emily, and a good cross-channel collaboration. Since you’re politically agnostic, he might be willing to work with you, and between the two of you, the combined expertise and audience might make for a very popular and timely series on youtube.

Just a thought

Tim, I don wanna @ you this fucking early but you made a good point during the last podcast tbat if a war breaks out, geurilla fighters with simple rifles have kicked the army's ass before.

yuuup

i would though mention that china doesent have a good history with sea invasions

Sorry, in london. I forget what time it is on the other side these days...

I talked with a guy in a local bar who said he studies geopolitics and he says he has a good idea od how amerixa will fracture if this goes down

west coast states, heartland, texas, the colonies + some a little below them, and the far southeast

which thing goes down?

purely on broad-stroke cultural similarities

civil war 2: the quickening

ah

i think the civil war will be left vs the government

Civil war 2: Communist Boogaloo

not really a fracturing of the union as much as an attempted revolution

the left is basicly in a state of growing "take away right power by any means nessicary"

while the right wants to defend the political reform its managed to spark

the america civil war was a VERY specific event differnt than many civil wars of the past

you wont have a fracture of the union until someone declares a new capital

Bees

also, just to be clear, I'm just a random schmo. I wasn't trying to promote something. It really was just a thought...

what

🅱

scroll up a bit. I saw a video by another dude, who has the idea of traveling the border and interviewing people on both sides. Seemed like something tim could team up on...

Next civil war will be three sides not two. Left extremists vs. Right extremists vs. government trying to maintain monopoly on force. It'll look like cartel violence with a weak inept government trying to prevent it.

i dont think so

right now the right is with the government

yeah the right and governement really arnt at odds

the feds protected actual neo nazis on numerous occasions

and right extremists dont have much solidarity

1a guarantee

the extreme right is fractured and small

so they might be a blip

but in 5-10 years if the left gets political power its bad news

look at what crowdpac did

they banned all republicans

But if the far right starts killing people the government is going to try to stop them.

if the left could theyd make right wing politics illegal

the state of the us in 5-10 years i think is unpredictible now

The federal police forces are going to have to intervene between two civilian factions
