Who exactly is “us”? And do “we” have enough manpower and firepower to defeat the US military?

Sadly,no.Democracy died on 1/20/25.The country is now a full on dictatorship,we have reams of proof and we’re only 7 months into this.I’m a realist. I don’t operate in what should be. I operate in what is. And what is, is the military, Congress and SCOTUS are all in. Can we who are left defeat that?

It took a civil war to stop the insurrection by the south in the 1800s. It took a world war to get Hitler out. What exactly do you think the line in the sand is? Evidently, concentration camps and the ICE equivalent of gas chambers aren’t enough. 🤷🏻‍♀️

A critical mass of us getting desperate for basic necessities? I always thought that would do it, now i wonder

The US Military has the might and power to destroy the whole world many times over in less than 2 weeks. Unless there’s a faction of the military that supports our effort, we can’t manage a full out aggression tactic.

It doesn’t seem to do well against insurgents
