Basically we tell the libs they can have their shithole cities, and can never leave.

They'll be ecstatic.

...Until they realize...Cities only exist because we allow them to.

People don't realize just how easy it is to put a city into siege... It's not like the medieval era where you need a standing army outside it.

No, all you need is to destroy some key overpasses/bridges along with key power substations and you've effectively crippled the entire city. Crash some simi-trucks on the few remaining major routes out and you've clogged any major supply/evac routes. A few snipers harassing anyone trying to repair the damage and you've got a perpetual siege that will strangle a city within a week.

Edit: Please note that I'm not advocating for anyone to do this but to get into people's heads that living in a big city is actually a trap if it came to open conflict.

Thanks for your service, my G.

I never went in which seems like a mistake now looking back. Unfortunately I came of age under Obama and watched as he fumbled the Military daily and was like "This is the Commander of the US Military? Lol fuck that then."

Just turn off the internet for a week and they'll all be begging to come back

With the proliferation of cell phone internet and hotspots you'd have to take down the cell towers along with the fiber lines and TV cable services. It's easier just to kill the power to the city. You'd still have satellite internet but how many people actually have that access inside a city? Even if someone did have it, they'd have a hard time powering the transmitter/receiver without the grid operating.

In addition to taking out the internet, you also take out air conditioning, hot water, microwaves, fridges and other 'everyday wonders' everyone takes for granted. Sure you'll still have a few 'off grid' power sources but inside a city those would be extremely rare to the point of being inconsequential.

Hospitals are required to have backup generators and a weeks worth of fuel so you wouldn't be endangering them and water/sewage has their own backup power supplies in most cases.

The goal wouldn't to be to kill the city but choke it into submission if it was put under siege.

Please note that I'm not advocating for anyone to do this but to get into people's heads that living in a big city is actually a trap if it came to open conflict.
