    There is no incentive to comply. They want violence. Give them violence. They are going to kill you either way.

      You wont win against the most expensive military in the world. The only option I see is a general strike.

        This military relies on its citizens. If it starts actively killing them in response for self defense, then not only the general strike but the problems in whole country will be guaranteed. And very quickly this military will officially turn into armed terroristic/criminal organization without proper support of the economy and many other aspects of society. So, it only takes a few sparks to start a huge fire. Yes, there will be innocent killed. But this will be justified if the crooked government will be destroyed.

        Well the economic desperation is certainly on the horizon. People are held back by their finances and jobs right now. When they cant meet their needs any more, they wont hold back.

      And I’m sure we’ll be seeing you on the front lines actively fighting against ICE…

      Unless you’re part of the Black Panthers, I find these Internet tough guy comments laughable and even I who have went to the No Kings protests carrying, I’m not going to be fighting multiple ICE agents if they ask for papers please on my minority ass.

        I’m not really sure what this comment was trying to do. I’m scared like anyone else. My fight or flight response is gear heavily toward stand-still-and-hope-their-vision-is-based-on-movement, so unless I’m fighting a t-rex I’m hosed.

        I’m not pretending I’m all powerful. I’m stating compliance is nonsensical.

          Oh for fucks sake there Internet Bravado, you might not have understood what my point was damn you sure as hell proved it.

          Don’t go around telling others to fight and die when you aren’t willing to do so yourself.

            I’m not Jason Bourne. I’m some dude on the internet. And you don’t fight hoping solely for your benefit. You fight so those who follow have better odds.

            If it makes you feel any better, I already know what’s coming for me here. I’m part of a population that will absolutely end up in a mass grave before this ends.
