see how interested republicans are in small government when they're the **only** government

2020-02-19 17:26:41 UTC  

It will certainly make small governmeant easier

2020-02-19 17:26:56 UTC  

Also I think a civil war would result more so in a split than a one party governmeant

2020-02-19 17:27:31 UTC  

people will be more divided

2020-02-19 17:27:50 UTC  

depends how long or short a fight it is, I guess. so maybe not that certain, fair enough

2020-02-19 17:28:16 UTC  

Yes, and like after the american civil war we went back to the two party system pretty quickly

2020-02-19 17:28:23 UTC  

The democrats still exist today for example

2020-02-19 17:28:44 UTC  

And will probs start a boog they can't win ironically ceding power to the other side, which is basically what they are doing right now <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

2020-02-19 17:28:53 UTC  

civil war also had a fuck load more factions involved than just two political bodies

2020-02-19 17:29:02 UTC  

I mean it was two main factions

2020-02-19 17:29:16 UTC  

more factions between the two major sides

2020-02-19 17:29:22 UTC  

not just federal and confederate

2020-02-19 17:29:30 UTC  

mexicans, native nations, and so on

2020-02-19 17:30:13 UTC  

and the objective wasn't just obliterate the other side, which this upcoming one has little excuse not to be

2020-02-19 17:30:17 UTC  

Interestingly most of the rest of the world stayed out, Britain didn't even try to invade again, I guess the war of 1812 left them shook

2020-02-19 17:30:44 UTC  

yeah, hard learned lesson, that

2020-02-19 17:31:03 UTC  

I mean the american civil war was largely fought between the union and confederates, the other elements played a minor role, unlike the Balkanization of Europe which was like, everything killing everybody

2020-02-19 17:31:09 UTC  

Ahh, the immortal enemy of the Serb, the Serb!

2020-02-19 17:31:18 UTC  

Kind of hard to make heads or tails of what really went on

2020-02-19 17:32:04 UTC  

like austrians and serbs, or germans and serbs, or italians and serbs, or serbs and other serbs, damn serbs, ruined serbia

2020-02-19 17:32:15 UTC  

A lot of the cowboy stuff like outlaws and whatnot was also the confederates vs. the union xD Like a lot of the bandits were left-over "guerrilla warriors" after the war

2020-02-19 17:32:23 UTC  

DAMN SERBS. WHEN WILL THEY LEARN.

2020-02-19 17:32:34 UTC  

YOU ARE NOT WELCOME IN SERBIA.

2020-02-19 17:33:12 UTC  

And various slavic groups

2020-02-19 17:33:49 UTC  

I guess in America you will have one side that is really well organized and own's 90% of the media vs. one that is heavily disorganized but has all the guns

2020-02-19 17:33:59 UTC  

I guess it might last a few minutes becuase of that, instead of just a few seconds

2020-02-19 17:35:08 UTC  

you keep saying that, but no one in big media (besides tucker when no one's looking) reminds the nation we've been in places like afganistan for 19 years with nothing substancial to show for it

2020-02-19 17:35:25 UTC  

Although their advantage of organization only lasts as long as they have the element of surprise; the longer conservatives have to prepare the more organized they will become negating this advantage

2020-02-19 17:35:49 UTC  

Well I mean the left-wing side owns the media

2020-02-19 17:35:53 UTC  

and if you were calling the left organized.... I'm not sure what to tell you other than to get some eye drops

2020-02-19 17:36:35 UTC  

Hollywood, most trade unions, most movies and tv shows and whatnot, the news... virtually all the media

2020-02-19 17:36:54 UTC  

Their organization is better in that they have small cells which are very motivated for their cuase, like antifa or BLM or whatever

2020-02-19 17:37:16 UTC  

when's the last conservative riot you've seen? There's like patriot prayer and the proud boys, and that's about it, and they're not even really that violent

2020-02-19 17:37:34 UTC  

The left tends to show up on demand in big crowds, the whole gun-rights thing in virginia is one of hte first of it's kind

2020-02-19 17:37:40 UTC  

The conservatives don't do protests all that often

2020-02-19 17:37:47 UTC  

They tend to act more so as individuals and show up to big events

2020-02-19 17:37:58 UTC  

But it is changing

2020-02-19 17:38:10 UTC  

As of recently, largely as a response to the left, which is making them grow in that advantage

2020-02-19 17:38:23 UTC  

also the left has sort of started the boog, hence they prepared ahead of time which caught people off guard

2020-02-19 17:38:25 UTC  

dunno why you limited parameteres to just 'riots', the virginia demonstration is plenty example that it can happen, be effective, and bloodless
