Do not trust in hope- it will betray you! Only faith and hatred sustain.

let's be honest though, Christian dominionism is so strong in the air force now that they'd just use a civil war as an excuse to send out all their nukes and bring on the end times

i hear they're currently in the process of reacting into r/atheist types

so probably still down for the side thats about killing muslims

HAHA OUR HEADLINE IS A JOKE. We do not think that Robert Mueller is literally doing that! But Reuters reports that Mueller’s investigation is now specifically using the Steele Dossier, which has not been discredited, despite what Rep. Devin Nunes and other Republicans would like you to believe:

On the chest of a barmaid in Sale, were tattooed the prices of ale. And on her behind for the sake of the blind, was the same information in braille.

all these resignations are just a prelude to collapse/revolution, right?

there's something like 1.5 million people in the american military (and that includes all the support and logistics staff)

america has 320,000,000 people

to rapidly shut down a civil war you'd need to seize cities and shut down shipping and logistics routes and starve people out until they agree to submit, not bomb hundreds of millions into oblivion. the military doesn't have remotely enough personnel to do this with even ONLY just attempting to control seattle/sf/la/houston/new orleans/tampa/miami/jacksonville/charleston/norfolk/baltimore/philly/nyc/boston -- and that's just major coastal cities and not the two dozen large inland american cities which have their own support infrastructure, food, supplies

if an actual full-blown second civil war breaks out, and that's an enormous if because such a scenario would require a dozen other horrific events and societal breakdowns to occur first, it would last years and years even with all the fancy toys the military has at its disposal unless they're willing to essentially commit suicide and annihilate america with nuclear weapons. even without that, the death toll would be absolutely enormous

it doesn't matter how fat and stupid americans are if entire regions are rebelling, especially when so many of them are armed. thousands would (and will) die easily and there'd still be tens of thousands more. in each city.

iraq had ~25 million people when we invaded them, afghanistan about the same, vietnam ~38 million during the vietnam war

america is more than ten times that and a hundred times more complex to deal with, on top of an enormous, absolutely enormous landmass. it wouldn't end in seven hours or even seven months
