    Yes, and it's why I cringed so hard listening to the beginning of the latest chapo. Reading that book and the way things happened.

    Even the pessimistic leftists were mostly saying that Trump can't get it done, but look at the reaction from the right and realize that this is not liberals whining about democracy dying because Trump served McDonalds.

    There are police training outfits putting out presentations claiming that BLM and Antifa are planning massive violence, that they have trained infiltrators and snipers ready to strike. Teaming up with foreign assets to coordinate. Going to overthrow the government.

    America is not in a good state.

    But if they’re massively outnumbered it won’t matter

    Yeah, that's why they use state terror.

    We know their tactics. The only reason the Red Scare worked so well was because living conditions were great. Living conditions are shit now and getting worse

    Conditions were not great during the first, and the first was when socialism was strong. They beat it.

    Knowing their tactics is only useful if you actually do something to take advantage of that. Forming a third party isn't taking advantage. Trying to rebuild the lost unions isn't taking advantage.

    These are old ideas. These are losing ideas.
