spankmeister posted:I know y'all joking but you Americans and your stupid tribalism over everything is a huge part of the problem. It's almost like we're an incredibly massive nation, settled in different areas by different ethnicities and religions all of whom developed their own idiosyncracies and quirks over time. As well as different commercial franchises that to be fair, by this point, are mostly all brands owned by one or two holding companies. Europe literally invented Balkanisation. Spain massacred Catalans and Basques to hold together, the Brits lost most of Ireland, the north and south of Italy loathe each other, as do the east and west of Germany. And there were a few countries south of the germany that I believe went through a degree of balkanization in the 90s. It's a bunch of 11 square mile nations with 300 dialects who all hate each other. We're mostly whistling through the graveyard here. Anyone outside the US most likely had their country balk out from under them in living memory.

Southland Tales is a great quarantine watch for anyone who wants to see a movie that bombed at first but in hindsight is very prophetic Following a nuclear terrorist attack all the states lockdown and require ITVs — interstate travel visas. From the prequel comic:  Also the military goes broke fighting WWIII and has to get sponsored by Hustler and Bud light:  The 2008 election (featuring a Hilary/Lieberman Democratic ticket lol) intensifies to the point of near-civil war, especially thanks to the left coalescing around the neo-Marxist movement which has been radicalized in Cali Prop 69, an anti-voting rights thing Concept art:   The animated intro that the studio forced the director (Richard Kelly — aka Donnie Darko guy) to tack on explains the situation really well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7ckVZ1m8Y0 Anyways, all that is background and doesn’t have too much to do with the plot of the film. I think it matches our situation where the crisis (nuclear bomb, virus) strains the system to the breaking point, but the real catalyst for apocalypse is the election that follows it.

Trumps Baby Hands posted:Southland Tales is a great quarantine watch for anyone who wants to see a movie that bombed at first but in hindsight is very prophetic I remember I was on an overnight bus in Peru during the middle of the Obama years, when all the libs had turned their brains off cause everything was fine everywhere. And I thought I hadn't, but for whatever the movie they showed was Southland tales, which, I was over the moon for at the tail end of college, but hadn't seen in years. Not too many Americans on the bus, so I got to watch a bunch of people who had zero reference frame for the heightened paranoia on the US left during the Bush years (and limited English skills) try to make heads or tails of the action on the screen, while realizing how far away from that mind set I'd gotten myself by 2013 or so. It's a perfect distillation of the headspace at the time, like all those 1970s conspiracy movies. Think about how scared you are now, then watch this movie and THEN watch some idiot centrist talk about how much they miss how normal the Bush years were.

Depends on the terrain and the circumstances I suppose. I sure as poo poo wouldn't want to lay siege to a Floridian city, however if they were attempting to attack anything north of the deep south I don't think I'd be too concerned about them. Michiganders would probably wilt in anything over 90 degrees I'd assume, but at least they aren't as susceptible to mosquitoes as people would think. They're better at hunting, certainly, and crushing lovely light beers and talking poo poo about their minority areas than the Floridians are. Of course, I'm assuming this is backwood hicks versus backwood hicks. Somehow, I don't think you'd be able to convince any minority folks from Miami or Jacksonville or Detroit to go on an expedition to go fight some shitsucker from the other side of the former country. Maybe folks from Tampa and Fort Meyers though. Those cities have seemed universally horrible every time I've been through them, unlike Jacksonville or Miami which actually had pleasant spots and people.

The tribe to beat in the mountain west is going to be the LDS, btw. They got the warchest, the tax base, the manpower, the capital, the obedience and most of all the organization. I'm not saying you won't be able to cross the territory but you're going to be doing in relative safety after all tolls are paid.

that's my big worry, that if we break into a civil war, that native american nations will be hosed over. I'm hoping Leftists will push for decolonization but we'll see. There's a sizeable number of leftists who think decolonization is this strawman that means sending all white americans back to Europe, even though the majority of native americans don't want that, so you have this faction of people within leftism that refuses to think of building a world outside settler-colonialism.
