  • I don’t see that going well for anyone.

    The only way forward I see is shutting off trade which is doubtful due to the strength of the American dollar. Or a general strike by citizens which is also unlikely due to the price of food and housing.

    The US would be in a defensive war in what you describe. And since the US Nuclear program is properly funded and the warheads are inspected and maintained on a very rigid schedule I have little doubt there will be a positive outcome for that.

    There is no violent solution to this. There’s 300 years of entrenched efforts against it. It would be a decline like the Ottomans, where vassal states migrate away and begin forming their own external economic ties.





  • Fuck, DC is gonna burn…

    Police response to the protests of the murder of Karon Hylton-Brown was heavy handed to say the least. With the upcoming protests already planned, this was either completely tone deaf and ignorant of the significance of the pardon. Or could be an antagonizing effort to show “riots” to justify more police violence and show the “left” as violent extremists.

    Shit like this is how we get a Reichstag fire type event to allow a concentration of power and a justification for martial law or worse.
