And when you call it a war, all's fair

2018-06-26 23:21:42 UTC  

I think they will embarass themselves. Time will tell

Here is another activist journo piece calling for "civil disobedience"

2018-06-26 23:23:34 UTC  

It's funny how after watching Tims video a political Discord server I'm in started having the right and left arguing about who would win in a civil war.

2018-06-26 23:23:46 UTC  

And some calling for it too.

Ppl tend to write lefties off

2018-06-26 23:25:14 UTC  

The lefties were talking about "how they are the majority" and "they have guns too".

2018-06-26 23:25:43 UTC  

In china commies drowe capitalists into the ocean

2018-06-26 23:25:45 UTC  

Also how Liberals will "stop playing nice soon".

2018-06-26 23:29:33 UTC  

In US there is also the geographical aspect of it

2018-06-26 23:29:43 UTC  

Its no longer north vs south

2018-06-26 23:29:55 UTC  

But coasts vs inland

2018-06-26 23:31:09 UTC  

the inland will riiiise agiiin

2018-06-26 23:32:46 UTC  

problem with UKIP is they split off votes from torys... all you end up with is a labour gov

2018-06-26 23:33:07 UTC  

followed shortly by communism and death

2018-06-26 23:34:00 UTC  

in parliament the tory chancellor threw Mao's book at the labour chancellor .. kinda funny

2018-06-26 23:34:29 UTC  

I was thinking about him having to go to a book store and actually buying that book just for that

2018-06-27 00:06:07 UTC  

If this hypothetical civil war were a traditional military confrontation then yeah, the right would probably win. Even putting aside the people involved just the terrain held by each at the onset is enough to swing it in the right's favor. The lefties would be besieged in a few cities, cut off from food and water supplies.

2018-06-27 00:06:21 UTC  

BUT it's not going to be a traditional military confrontation.

2018-06-27 00:06:53 UTC  

It'll look more like cartel violence, at least at the beginning. Assassinations, bombings, arson, etc.

2018-06-27 00:07:24 UTC  

All with a coordinated media campaign.

2018-06-27 00:07:55 UTC  

It's not so easy to pick winners and losers under such conditions.

2018-06-27 00:08:35 UTC  

The right-wingers have a fuckload of guns and ammo but they won't have targets or the will to employ them.

2018-06-27 00:09:36 UTC  

I sometimes hang out on gun forums and they're just as delusional as the lefties.

2018-06-27 00:13:00 UTC  

@Timcast ive listened through all of @Starscream92 (ChefLeopard) video and it sounds very important to me. its basicly a story about fake news that never got any attention. its about a "journalist" who got into various bernie sanders support facebook groups during the election who collected information on the people inside it then once bernie lost the primarys this "journalist" went to various news outlets spreading a story that these people were russian bots. then when the people there tried to get the story corrected it never got contact with the news companys that ran the story and they have faced backlash both politically and personally for it

2018-06-27 00:13:26 UTC  

Sargon is right though, that is more or less what politics is about. Developing narratives to maintain support and getting away with lying

2018-06-27 00:14:06 UTC  

That's why I like Trump. He's not a politician.

2018-06-27 00:14:18 UTC  

Well one reason anyways.

2018-06-27 00:14:41 UTC  

Trump has his narrative and is using it to maintain public support

2018-06-27 00:15:16 UTC  

He doesn't try to hind behind fake words like most politicians though. He says what he thinks.

2018-06-27 00:16:25 UTC  

Most of the "lies" he has been caught in are partial truths, so anyone critiszing him is forced to acknowledge the underlying truth. If they dont point it out or at least nod in its direction then trumps supporters have a built in rebuttal.

2018-06-27 00:19:03 UTC  

Many people would agree with you, they've grown discontent with both sides of the staus quo. To them trump represents a break from the stale political dialogue and a chance to see actual govenrment action to solve issues.

2018-06-27 00:20:04 UTC  

@Arch-Fiend if you need anymore information about this, don't hesitate to contact me or @Canucklehead

2018-06-27 00:32:27 UTC  

If true. Ugh

2018-06-27 00:32:45 UTC  

These are the same pro net neutrality companies

2018-06-27 00:33:31 UTC  

Proves that they aren't in it for "the people"

2018-06-27 00:39:24 UTC  

It's almost as if two different things are not the same thing...
