Even in Europe when things would get bad enough for the people to put aside their differences and kill the ruling class, the differences tend to re-assert themselves once the common enemy is gone. That's where things go south. Cutting heads off is like eating potato chips. You can't just stop once you've started. Eventually you're pulling crumbs out of the bottom of the bag.
If it gets bad enough for the American people to unite to kill the oppressors, the oppressors will definitely have a bad time, but you better be ready for one hell of a rough ride after.
Honestly, there is going to be a rough ride either way. Might as well make it useful.
Thank you. So many people lately that think there's some magic "fix everything" button hidden in the neck of whatever top asshole is in power.
Doesn't take too deep a look at revolutions the world over to see that isn't the case.
Don't get me wrong, I think we're at the point where it may be the only way out. It's just nothing to look forward to, and suggesting Europe "does it better" isn't comforting.
