It's a long thread, but worth a read. As he specifically brings up not only how Tim Pool and Professor Munchkin...sorry, Turchin, are wrong. But also why:

Now, am I reading it wrong, was this slop written on November 17, 2016? [referring to an earlier article by Turchin]

Trump was inaugurated on January 20, 2017.

This imbecile had written off Trump BEFORE HE EVEN TOOK OFFICE.

But we're supposed to respect his opinions NOW?!

He says that Aunt Jemima protests will lead us to civil war.

Does anybody even know about the terrorism in the US in the 1970s to early 1980s?

In an 18-month period during 1971-72, we had 2500 bombings. Five a day.

HOW MANY BOMBINGS TODAY?

...

NO CIVIL WAR.

But Professor Munchkin is predicting civil war over maple syrup and tweets.

HE THINKS WE'RE ALL SAVAGES.

Do YOU, Tim Pool? Is that your fatal flaw? You feel contempt for your fellow human?

Tim, I'M A HERMIT and I don't dismiss everyone as savages.

...

The US doesn't fit ANY MODEL FOR A CIVIL WAR.

Every single person predicting a civil war is an ahistorical boob.

They're surface skaters. Fantasists.

THESE PROTESTS ARE MASS HYSTERIA, NOT A REVOLUTION.
