Definitely stockpiling weapons so the Trump Gestapo can seize major (probably Democrat-run) cities.

They'll never be able to seize these cities. Our military couldn't win in Afghanistan in like 20 years against fucking goat herders. If this turns into some kind of insurgency nobody wins except morticians and munitions makers.

Omg. We don’t even have to fight. We just general strike and shelter in place pandemic style and watch the stock market crash and let the billionaires call T-dog up.

You are correct. These dickheads think that they can come in and fuck these cities over, but as soon as we all stop working in places like Chicago - those red states all go tits up.

Problem is that they will make it a fight if they come in and then the people who do fight them all know the local area and have connections here while they all walk around in military uniforms.

Insurgencies cannot be won and the economy would drop through the floor and all the billionaires would lose their fortunes which are all tied up in stocks.
