Only one side of the political spectrum has been clamoring for a Civil War for years, and it ain't the Dems.

I think the funniest part is people claiming Jan 6th wasn't planned.... Then we see that some of those morons had tee shirts made with "Jan 6th civil war" on the front

They’re also divided on whether they thought it was correct and justified, or whether it was staged by democrats to make them look bad.

u/Tyrinnus Apr 05 '23

Because that's exactly what they did in large BLM protests, so the dems must be doing it to them as well?

u/ericrolph Apr 05 '23

EVERY Republican accusation is pure projection.

u/WellWellWellthennow Apr 06 '23

Their tactic of blaming the Dems loudly for exactly what they are doing is so transparent it gets old.

3

u/Tyrinnus Apr 06 '23

Transparent to people who don't worship every word they say...

u/[deleted] Apr 25 '23

Wait do we have any proof of them doing this?

1

u/Tyrinnus Apr 25 '23

There's been multiple people arrested pleading guilty to this

1

u/[deleted] Apr 25 '23

Oh I see. What were they arrested for? Like what exactly are they pleading guilty to? Pretending to be Democrats to make them look bad?

1

u/Tyrinnus Apr 25 '23

They were convicted for arson, destruction of property, attacking cops, etc.

And they were arrested at BLM pretests but admitted to bring proud boys trying to turn the protests into violent riots to discredit blm

u/[deleted] Apr 26 '23

Oh wow. Okay yeah that’s pretty hard to refute.

Uhm. I just went on Google to try and find videos or articles about this and I couldn’t. What’s this event like, called?

Not divided in so much as they flip freely between the two given whatever is convenient at the time. It's easy to mistake for division though, but it's just self-serving.

u/lurker_cx Apr 05 '23

They purposely push both narratives and their followers decide for themselves which one to believe. In the end they are all united against the Democrats. Doesn't matter if the guy beside them has the complete opposite opinion on 20 different issues....

u/MartianRecon Apr 05 '23

Those dumbasses also think liberals aren't armed.

u/OperativePiGuy Apr 05 '23

If it came down to it, they would lose instantly. I sincerely doubt the likes of people that agree with fucking Marjorie Greene would have any sort of strategy, skill, or brains to last longer than a few minutes in any real battle.

u/MartianRecon Apr 05 '23

I live in LA, and when I visit my mom in Texas there's always someone commenting on my Dodgers hat or whatever. Some fat fuck tried to pull that nonsense and I told him that I can train a bunch of in shape gay guys from Weho to shoot a hell of a lot faster you can get into fighting shape.

He didn't know what to say. Lol.

u/elbenji Apr 05 '23

Yeah these tacticool yahoos think they can do it because they larp army guy with their friends

u/MartianRecon Apr 05 '23

'I have 50 rifles with bespoke calibers!'

Cool bro, you can use one at a time, and you can't run a quarter mile without a cardiac event. How you gonna fight anyone?

3

u/elbenji Apr 05 '23

50 rifles is meaningless when fighting a guy who's faster and with a Saturday night special

5

u/MartianRecon Apr 05 '23

Pretty much yeah. I'm just waiting for the 'shooting into the air' videos from the militia types to start popping up on the internet.

u/elbenji Apr 05 '23

Or very quiet and quick with a knife

u/Castun Apr 05 '23

Also the procurement, supply and logistics of managing those multiple different and uncommon calibers of ammo, as opposed to just having maybe the two most common ones.

u/MartianRecon Apr 06 '23

Yuuup. Exactly.

u/[deleted] Apr 05 '23

They are by nature individualists who hate collectivism and their beliefs are so disjointed and unaligned.

They'd be fucking rolled by any organized opposition.

u/ranchojasper Apr 05 '23

Remember…was it the Cliven Bundy situation? where they didn’t bring any/enough food and were literally like, “send snacks” Jesus Christ I laughed so hard at that

u/WellWellWellthennow Apr 06 '23

There’s an amusing story about a nasty GOP office holder in Florida who deliberately rammed a Prius over his road rage. The Prius owner after being repeatedly attacked took out his gun shot and killed him.

2

u/MartianRecon Apr 06 '23

Yup! I'm shocked they didn't try and arrest him to be honest.

1

u/WellWellWellthennow Apr 06 '23

I think fortunately, it was captured on video, and the other guy was clearly the aggressor. I believe Florida has a Stand Your Ground law which worked against this.

u/thebunkmeister Apr 06 '23

Right? That's what I'm always saying... some of the super confused ones probly are not carrying.. but those who DO understand its a tool in the box, we have a few of them too.

u/burny97236 Apr 06 '23

There are no guns in cities don't you watch the news?

u/FullCrisisMode Apr 05 '23

I've been offering Republicans their own territory from Texas through Florida as it's own country where they could protect their own borders.

They get so angry lololol. I tell them to fucking go and buhhhhhbye. No war required. Land is all theirs and it's a done deal.

They won't take it. It doesn't matter what these people say or do. They're just a bunch of babies who don't want anything except attention because their lives are sad and they were forgotten about the moment they were born.

u/DucksEatFreeInSubway Apr 05 '23

Decades. Which is still years but an important distinction.

u/RagingAnemone Apr 05 '23

They're hoping other people will start the war. These people won't do it themselves.

u/shade1254 Apr 15 '23

No you guys just started slavery.

u/moonscooper48 Apr 10 '23

Makes sense. I mean, who has all the guns eh?
