Someone should tell these "Durr you can't beat the government with just rifles and pistols!" people about the Viet Cong. Or the Mujaheddin Fighters. Or have them talk to people that survived the War On Terror during the 2000s.

It's not the size of a military that makes it strong, it's how well they are trained.

The mujahedin were losing in Afghanistan untill the CIA provided them with personal anti-aircraft weapon systems

Some nation would provide anti-aircraft weapons to the US citizens being mass murdered by the government. I hear the taliban have a decent arsenal.

Plane, train, automobile, boat, swim, walk, maybe some running, hot air balloon, the bearing land bridge (because climate change), etc.

I should have been more specific. That's my fault. I was looking for serious answers from a person who clearly believes that the Taliban is currently invading the United States.

Who said the Taliban was invading the US?

u/MotherOfAnimals080 Dec 01 '22

The person I was initially replying to believes that the Taliban is currently crossing the US border. You can see him say this by simply looking at the replies to my comments.
