I've been wondering that a lot over the last year, like what is that moment when an actual war breaks out, you know? It was the sociologist in me wondering it last year, a LOT. Because I would have thought the events of last year would have caused it, but it never fully emerged. And now here we sit and again I'm thinking, will it happen, could it happen? But you can still feel the air- the answer is no. I do wonder when or if, what factors really happen to BLOW IT UP, to where all those tensions stop brewing and just explode. I do hope we don't reach that point, but watching the last year has been interesting/puzzling, and has proven me wrong a lot.
I'm not sure either although I'm not a sociologist. I don't know what the precipice is, and I'm terrified to find out. What I do know is, when we reach that point it's game over for real. Like a spoiled child they're going to keep poking and testing until they fuck up. I pray that it's taken care of before we reach that point.
I just think in the world we have now, I don't see it happening like it would in the old days. There's more police, more surveillance, people are far less likely to try organizing anything like that. Just talking about it is hazardous to your freedom. Whereas if you went back to the civil war era, I'm sure it was a lot more common for people to just be in groups talking about "how they would do it, if they were to do it." Kind of stuff. There was less police around, less prison space, it wasn't like they could arrest anyone in the country for just talking about things like they could now. In some ways it's a good thing, because this added technology causes people to be more cautious before taking violent action.
Similarly, nuclear bombs work the same way. Although they are a dangerous weapon, they also have their own way of limiting conflict and war as well. So then we enter this phase where this subversion and "non-kinetic warfare" is prevailing. Which I guess, is a good thing. Maybe there never will be violence when both sides are equal or close to equal in strength. Any violence would only come when one gained a tremendous upper hand. Like them putting us in prison camps if they got the chance, for example.
This is why I am in many ways not exactly angry at China. I despise that aspect of human nature that brings them to try and destroy our country. But I frankly am more ashamed at Americans for being so ignorant of these tactics. We are so dumbed down when it comes to understanding that kind of stuff. American's still think of war like it's 1850. When instead we should be thinking about influence, raising generations the proper way, etc.
I just feel like people are falling into the pit man. I think we really need to get involved in our communities. Organize meetings for all people that are opposed to mask mandates, vaccines, covid hysteria, cancel culture, etc. Then if you are getting enough support try and bring your complains to the sheriff, the local police. Otherwise I think if people like us aren't forcing the issue, we will just be lulled into communism. People are asleep or complacent right now. That's the biggest problem.

Me too. I feel it also. If something doesn't break soon then something else will.

How did you hear about the meetings? Who organized it, and where is it taking place?
