We need to start addressing the possibility that the military is not on our side.
Someone needs to go ask these guys if they would arrest Biden should Trump give the order, then ask if they'd arrest Trump if Biden gave the order, then ask if their answers are different before or after a 1/20/21 Biden inauguration.
I have a feeling they'd follow the orders of whoever is President. That means they're currently on our side, but won't be the moment Trump leaves office.
I won't make excuses for law enforcement, but Reddit is truly not representative of any real world population. If it's 50/50 on Reddit, it's probably more like 80/20 IRL. They go to great lengths to stifle anti-left wing positions and promote left-wing moderators even on non-political reddits.
Except for the 25,000 military personnel, of course.

Don't venture over to r/army you'll be truly disappointed by some of the comments.
I would say its 50/50.
