Interestingly, the states rights debate is true, wholly.

The north wanted to keep the right to acknowledge escaped slaves as free, and the south kept sending people up there to kidnap free men and women. They were even known to kidnap free born black people and sell them into slavery.

The south also wanted to charge the north for this "service".

When people talk about states rights, remind them that the south was heavily infringing on the rights of the northern states.

"Buy muh Southern Pride!"

"What about the south are you proud of that involves the battle flag of the side that wanted to keep slavery?"

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.

They don't really want to secede. They want to dominate their opponents. C'mon bro.

They're not gonna just go quietly.

If they could just live their lives in peace without infringing on the rights and freedoms of others they wouldn't need a civil war. They wouldn't have needed the first civil war either.

I doubt even this would cause a civil war. By world standards, U.S. citizens have pretty good lives, so most people wouldn't risk it. An unprecedented and complete collapse of the U.S. quality of life would be necessary. People would need to feel like they had nothing to lose, and much to gain to attempt to fight the U.S.

I suppose a quick coup is possible. If the DoD/military backed it, I'd guess most people would just accept it as the way things are, or try to emigrate to other countries.

The U.S., the "west", and possibly the entire world is probably just destined for a long slow decline as global capitalism eats itself. Probably transitioning to something worse featuring mass surveillance, disinformation like we've never seen (powered by "AI" tech), and even greater inequality. But I'm a pessimist :)

If by "retaliate", you mean arrest people, then yes. The closest dems get to doing things outside the law is black people "getting uppity" and accidentally setting fire to the local buger king.

The south will rise again.... slowly from their mobility scooters.

As someone outside the country, I think uncle sam will do just fine vs meal team 6.

Dramatic and doomerpilled.

The US military will aggressively dismantle any secessionist activity if it comes to blood. Hopefully we get to see some combined arms ops with the good tech for once instead of holding back.

Meanwhile I'm gonna crack cold ones while I watch red states suffer from their own actions.

Something something those that wear the uniforms (or carry badges in this case) by day are the ones burning crosses at night.
