We haven't reached critical mass just yet, but it's coming. Just like in the Revolution, you've got the people organizing grass roots style and the individual States starting to flex their muscles. When the two come together, the showdown will have arrived.
Still hoping the Constitution holds up, and it has so far.
Until they came for the guns, the Colonials weren't willing to risk everything.
This is what I've been trying to tell people. Most people don't realize that the founding fathers spent 8 YEARS trying to get the colonies to declare independence. Heck, the Boston Massacre happened in 1770 and it STILL took 6 more years for the people to revolt (and after all this time only 25 PERCENT of the population supported independence), and if the brits hadn't came for the colonists' guns and ammunition they STILL wouldn't have rose up against them.
overall we slaughtered them. politicians cucked that entire engagement and we still got them to sign a treaty. then we left and didnt come back when the treaty was predictably broken
I don’t think it can be made to happen...... to be purposefully incited.
When/if it does happens, it will be a groundswell, and cause hell on earth until one side loses.
That being said, I am not convinced that the next war will be a shooting war, at least not in the continental US, between US citizens.
The more likely scenario is a foreign power somehow overcoming one of our coasts, and the powers that be inside the continental US realigning themselves in a common threat against the intruding enemy. In this scenario, I would expect at least some of the population to align themselves w/the foreign power, which will probably be communist. They will offer huge incentives to defectors, so in that sense it would be American vs American.
Anyway, just my two cents. Any blow-up here anywhere between Left and Right will easily be stopped and never move outside the cities.
It would take something so UnGodly, so unimaginable, and so unbelievable to cause every person to rise up at the same time from all corners of the US. To imagine how bad that something must be, to incite such a thing, I hope it never happens.

Yup, John Hancock was a British sympathizer until they took his house away and now he's a revered Founding Father.
Different story this time because the military has unbelievable firepower over us. The difference in weapons quality wasn't very much back then

Yea. People keep trying to make it happen.
