They actually believe that they can revolt, and with their AR-15s, magically take out National Guard troops and just acquire their weapons and armored vehicles.
A member of my family is not only a veteran, but also fell into this lunacy and thinks his work as a logistics officer and his NG training puts him on the level of the Navy SEALs. And he’s almost 60. He salivates at the idea of fighting the mythical military oppression from the evil Demoncrats trying to take away his guns.
Too bad they fucked over the country so much, 90% of people in the military are just poor people that cant afford college (or to live in general). I dont think these people will join some white supremacist fucks
A lot of people gloss over this fact. Most of the folks I served with were poor Latino kids looking for GI Bill money to pay for school. Myself included, minus the Latino part.
Its not just red yokels from Nebraska who can tag an Ivan at 300m. You’re 100p correct, most of the folks in the military would not want to harm other Americans. Most of those guys are patriotic in the good sense.
I don’t understand how they think that would work. Like an officer with a few decades in is going to throw away their career for something they saw on the internet? Or do they think a private is going to turn against their unit? Or maybe all the soldiers in a unit will mutiny against their CO? But then how is that rogue unit going to be supplied?

Also a factor, I think, is the notion that the military rank and file are secretly on their side, and in the event of an uprising would defect.

Some of them might, and if a few state governments decide to side with them a lot of people will get hurt. Even if they lose.
