i dont see the population giving a united front thoguh

2019-03-23 03:05:45 UTC  

If they do some shit like bring in French troops to shoot Americans?

You're damn right they would

2019-03-23 03:05:46 UTC  

i just see a lot of power struggle

2019-03-23 03:06:09 UTC  

well towns might unite

2019-03-23 03:06:32 UTC  

but the country at large? do you think populations would be able to form a militia nation-wide comm system?

2019-03-23 03:06:34 UTC  

I'd see multiple states organizing into coalitions

2019-03-23 03:06:51 UTC  

one that's public and protected from sabotage

2019-03-23 03:07:02 UTC  

Iirc, didn’t they figure out that the US military would have something insane like 86% defect rate in the event of a revolution?

2019-03-23 03:07:05 UTC  

@What Would Jack Conte Do? lol dude, we already *have one*

2019-03-23 03:07:10 UTC  

one that has comm security, so no intel leaks out

2019-03-23 03:07:28 UTC  

We've had this stuff established for 40 years

2019-03-23 03:07:33 UTC  

sigh, do you think a united front will capture it in the first month of war?

2019-03-23 03:07:39 UTC  

lol no

2019-03-23 03:07:47 UTC  

so it'll probably be sabotaged then

2019-03-23 03:07:53 UTC  

Doubtful

2019-03-23 03:08:15 UTC  

well when the US military splits up as a result of ethno-nationalist/internationalist tension

2019-03-23 03:08:28 UTC  

and tension from people that just aren't ethnonationalist anyway

2019-03-23 03:08:40 UTC  

do you think that line of comm will be secure

2019-03-23 03:08:55 UTC  

You know that the US asks for assitance from amateur radio operators during natural disasters, right?

2019-03-23 03:09:06 UTC  

It's a better network

2019-03-23 03:09:08 UTC  

for long range open comms?

2019-03-23 03:09:17 UTC  

For everything

2019-03-23 03:09:29 UTC  

that can reach out to lots of people so that they can direct a united front, for maneuver of groups consisting of thousands of people

2019-03-23 03:09:41 UTC  

seems a bit complicated for amateur

2019-03-23 03:09:43 UTC  

i dunno

2019-03-23 03:10:17 UTC  

a lot of the radio operators are military trained

2019-03-23 03:10:36 UTC  

o good, so he's really good with that fisherprice radio then

2019-03-23 03:10:39 UTC  

Organizing airlifted supplies, nationalized comms, small militia units, you name it: The public does it better, and more decentralized than the US gov't

2019-03-23 03:11:05 UTC  

its p2p tho

2019-03-23 03:11:24 UTC  

its not like an internet website where everyone can go (though maybe that would exist too)

2019-03-23 03:11:34 UTC  

Who were the first people to get Puerto Rico back up?

Amateur radio operators organizing with small plane owners carrying supplied from Florida

2019-03-23 03:12:10 UTC  

still, likely scenario to me seems to be that white nationalist death squads will take over neighbourhoods so that people can't flee

2019-03-23 03:12:16 UTC  

they will pop up around the country

2019-03-23 03:12:18 UTC  

They were landing food and water on the island a week before the military showed up lol

2019-03-23 03:12:24 UTC  

and it'll basically just be a war between the govt and those groups

2019-03-23 03:13:20 UTC  

@What Would Jack Conte Do? What would you need a website for?

2019-03-23 03:13:50 UTC  

to keep up morale?

2019-03-23 03:14:01 UTC  

to keep people informed on the state of the nation at large

2019-03-23 03:14:07 UTC  

It wasn't facetious, I'm asking about your use case

2019-03-23 03:14:08 UTC  

cheaper probably than news anchors

2019-03-23 03:14:27 UTC  

my use case...
