These chucklefucks have been screeching about civil war since Obama was elected.
And these jabronis will be the first to fold like cheap lawn chairs when they figure out that when a civil war starts in earnest, it very quickly strips them of all the comforts they feel accustomed and entitled to.

Could not agree more with this. I know a few RW preppers in my life and I always ask them to walk me through the scenarios they play out in their head. Most of them still think they are going to be fighting against a rogue government. Of course, this rogue government is assumed to be “Communist” because, well, reasons, LOL. This, even as they can obviously see what the cons are doing right now.
All of them are utterly delusional about how it would play out at least in my view. I always ask them about their plans for becoming a farmer. They talk about how they have enough guns and ammo, and some number of months/years of food. And enough fuel to heat your house for that time, as well as medicine to sustain whatever health conditions you have or may arise.
Okay, let’s say you actually have a full X years worth of food for everyone in your family. And you fight off all threats for X years. Now what? You know nothing about how to grow crops and have no seeds. Probably no real land to grow it on. The U.S. has collapsed and unless you take up raiding others’ food supplies (probably also diminished or completely run out, so not all that viable, never mind the moral compass being broken) you are doing…what?
I think these people have watched too many zombie movies or things like Red Dawn or whatever and think they are just going to sit somewhere on their front lawn with their AR-15, taking out “bad guys” wearing clearly delineated uniforms to designate them as a “Communist” or from “Big Government”, and if they think about something like food, they just assume they’ll be munching on MREs or whatever. Life doesn’t work like a first person shooter game…FFS.
I feel like the whiskey rebellion is a bit of an unfair one to include. Mostly because rebelling over taxes was rather common historically, and now that I’m considering its a tad weird we haven’t had more tax rebellions here in the US.
When George f****ing Washington , inaugural president of the United States, leads troops into battle to assert the rule of law and congress’s ability to impose taxes it kind of sets a precedent.
America’s had a bunch of tax rebellions, though . It’s just that being a functioning democracy let us do it without anyone dying. (Save for two very notable exceptions.)

Came here to say this - the conservatives have always been among us…and they have NEVER been happy about having a free country.
I’m pretty sure a lot of people are going to starve when the just in time supply chain shuts down.
