It could be turned around by MAGA insurrectionists being held accountable and prosecuted. No liberal is threatening violence, only conservatives

- proc0 4y agoThey had a trial already. Insurrections don't work that way, it baffles me that people keep thinking that was possible or is a threat. When talking about guns, the military is mentioned as having so much power that it's pointless to think you can win in any way, but all of a sudden with an insurrection, a few hundred people rushing the capitol and the whole country will cease to exist! They were never a threat. The military could have swooped in and killed everyone. "Democracy" is not that fragile, and cannot be destroyed by occupying a building. If democracy dies it will be because there are tens of MILLIONS of people don't want to participate anymore, at which point it's a civil war. A small minority of extremist cannot threaten a large system, unless of course those small minority is meant to be half of the country based on political leanings (at which point, it's not an insurrection and just a civil war). By exaggerating the threat, it ironically adds fuel to the fire of a civil war, becoming like a self-fulfilling prophecy.
