Mike Huckabee jumped on the GQP bandwagon, warning of bloody violence if King Trump doesn’t get his way in 2024. “Do you know how political opponents to those in power are dealt with in…
Undoubtedly. But they will stir a whole lot of shit while they’re going down.
If you think mass shooting are bad now, imagine if every single MAGAt becomes convinced they’re going to be persecuted to “David Koresh”-levels and decides to kill a bunch of people on their way out…
I shudder to think the level of societal chaos this could cause.
They don’t have that much power. It takes a lot (and a lack of sanity) for someone to “kill a bunch of people on their way out”.
The most they can do is something like Jan 6th with more competence. Something like that requires organization, and the FBI is pretty good at infiltrating organizations who are trying to grow enough to make a difference. January 6th wasn’t stopped primarily because it was done by the President, and the office (for better or worse) gets more leeway with laws.
I doubt anything organized and large scale will ever happen. The thing to watch for is more isolated* terrorist acts against minority groups like we’ve seen over the last several years.
Seems likely, their stupidity functions as a safety mechanism. It’s just like why elaborate government conspiracies fail: People are eventually stupid and untrustworthy, the more people involved, the greater the likelihood somebody fucks up hard. When you take a group that’s already very poorly educated and lacks critical thinking, they’re probably not going to do too hot in any form of sustained warfare.
Doesn’t help that they think people who aren’t far right are unarmed soy boys: There are plenty of moderates and liberals who are armed and can fight just fine.
I’m a well armed Canadian leftist/labour unionist and people are always surprised by this combination (especially in Canada where non-conservative politicians are almost always gun grabbers). I always have to remind them two things:
left wing and “woke liberal” are two different things
when you get far enough to the left you find people aren’t willing to give up their guns anymore
removed please, Qultists would get fucking wrecked if a civil war popped off.
