The Democrat vs Republican divide will NEVER rise to a civil war. That’s the whole point - limit people’s understanding of “politics” to the spectrum of rainbow capitalism to fascism.
There may be a civil war in the coming decades, but it will be between capitalism and socialism.
Now is not the time in the movement to even talk about civil war - it is unnecessarily inflammatory to the existing system that has the power to crush any leftist organization.
For now, our strategy is the same as cockroaches: multiply and don’t attract attention. Some of us will be caught in the light and smashed under boots, and they will find our deaths inconvenient, though mostly because they have to clean up our guts. When the light comes on we must scatter, because we don’t have the strength to stop the boot from falling.
Yet.
With every contradiction, we get stronger. With every crisis, every late paycheck, increased rent, asshole boss, price gouge, planned obsolescence, enshittified service, every FUCKING unskippable ad, our numbers grow. And one day, perhaps in our lifetimes, they will try to crush one of us, and the walls will explode in roaches. We will stand together by the millions and the boot will stop. And on that day, we will finally be free.
We have a long and perilous journey ahead of us, and we need everyone we can get. Take care of yourself, look out for each other, and continue to multiply.
That shit’s garbage, yo.
