Things have changed, though. The military would wipe the floor with us

One of the reasons the founders never wanted a large standing, professional army.

That's just completely unrealistic in today's age where literally every other country has a large standing, professional army.

Britain had a large standing, professional army as well. We still beat them twice.

Vietnam beat us, FFS. If it came to armed conflict, millions of patriots would be victorious (but pay a dear price). That's not something to worry about much though, as disgusting as today is.

We live in a time of infowar. That should be the focus. Legacy media needs to fade; decentralization should be our goal.

With guns, ships, crew, cannons, ammo, and money from France, yes.

20y+ years later we’re still in Afghanistan. Biden is purging red blooded Americans from the military. Now let that sink in. Also look up the current political leaning of the grunts of the military ie Marines.

Yes, but patriots don't shoot their own, they attack the enemy.

There is a reason why Biden was so afraid of the 65K soldiers in DC.

Vietnam, Afghanistan

A state military has much difficulty with defeating guerilla warfare.

A state cannot stand forever if it kills or imprisons most of its people. A prison with several folds more inmates than guards is doomed to fail.

When was the last time a prison was overtaken by the population? They know how to manage their prisoners, and thats why you never see prison systems collapse.

Likewise, you think Congress will just roll over and let the people overtake them? They know how to psyops the shtuff out of us.
