Comment on I'm surprised it hasn't been taken down yet ...well maybe not that surprised

Yes if it comes to that, and within the bounds of rules of war. Accepting surrender, treatment of POWs, avoiding civilian casualties, rules of engagement and so on. The nation isn’t there yet, and there are serious legal and administrative attempts being made to block the worst of Trump’s policies. But if the US does in fact have a civil war, I am cheering for those opposing fascists.

Personally I’m antiwar, but to each their own. The way I see it, a civil war becomes more likely through the tolerance of fascism, but I suppose if you have a just war mindset it could make more sense to let it boil over to the point that generals match in with a list of rules to make the carnage appear civilized.
