Speak for yourself, why do you think they need AI and robots and all the shit they do? They don't actually have that many goons and their tech is mostly grifts, we outnumber the state forces massively, we just have to fight back.

We outnumber them, but none of us really get along. We arent together how we should be. They have divided us and can control us

Your fellow Americans will definitely turn on you. The 2nd amendment people will likely join the government's side if shit does go down. That means fighting the government, and the crazy militia people, and your loyalist neighbors, and possibly even friends, and family that turn on you.

I think you are the most accurate here even if the truth is unpopular.

Even the people that wouldn't turn, or are on our side. We are too divided. Our groups are too small, we can make fun of proud boys, but wtf do we got that equals that? Most democrats i know that hate Trump are still racist too so I dont fully trust them.

If people want to admit it or not, the right is much much further ahead of us in this fight.

I don't know, I don't have that issue, there are many people of different types and groups I talk to and we all seem to agree that the nazis are bad. It's true people aren't exactly cohesive or acting in an organized manner against these forces yet, but the people power is there.
