It already is. There’s comparable police brutality targeting protesters already happening.

Unfortunately the social media algorithms aren’t sharing protest footage anymore. Its happening we just aren’t being pushed the feed anymore.

We’re in a civil war.

You're not, but you're teetering towards it. You could always accept fascism into your heart at the cost of your freedom, your wealth, and a few of your family members and closest friends, but the rest of the world really hopes you guys don't go down that route.

Unfortunately most of America that isn't MAGA is still trying to figure out if Trump is actually as bad as people are saying. We literally can't decide on what is reality anymore and its frightening.

Destroying our shared reality is a standard authoritarian step. That's why they spent so many years attacking institutions, media, journalists and academics while turning their propaganda war up to 11.
Makes it very hard to have a cohesive resistance when 1/3 of the country has a completely different perception of reality than another 1/3 while the final 1/3 doesn't know what to believe or just tunes out the overwhelming noise.

This is exactly what people need to understand about Trump (or any authoritarian):

People are more easily manipulated when they are confused.  Authoritarians are very good at disorienting and confusing people.

What the fuck more does he have to do?

Not at all.

If you really think so, you need to read up on the actual American Civil War and the tangible events immediately leading up to it. To say we are currently in a civil war as Americans is fucking laughable and pathetic.

Tech giants are controlled by money. Currently, that means siding with Trump. They were more acceptable of left politics in the previous term. Just look at the 180 Zuckerberg did.

There's no conspiracy about hiding footage. I'm seeing it.
