My question is to what degree does the right wing have an end goal beyond, "Let's fight"? Who are the intellectual architects of their revolution -- and what specifically are they calling for?

"That is what “civil war” actually means: heavily armed right-wing Americans committing acts of murder and terrorism across the country."

Right now, not sure if it can be blamed on the left or the right, but squarely on the psychopathic and powerful elites who control world governments, we have these governments, along with big pharma and the medical industrial complex, committing acts of murder and terrorism across the country and around the world.

Unfortunately, it seems like we're having a great deal of difficulty in finding away to fight this without resorting to violence. We are trying though. God help us, we're trying.

I don't understand how anyone could still be threatened by these demonstrable cowards. They thought J6 was the Alamo, and yet they brought none of the arsenals they've spent so much of their income on. Why? Because they are, by and large, not ready to step up the violence into the real world where they WILL get hurt, ie. Ashley Babbitt. They WORSHIP their weapons, and yet, the "strike" teams and even street fighters kept their arms in hotel rooms, unwilling to take the big step that would actually be needed to take control in that scenario. They had all the benefits an opposing force could give, mostly due to that white skin privilege that had shielded them from actual repercussions.

Will they scare liberals? Absolutely. Will they terrorize marginalized groups? Only if the rest of us allow that to happen. What happens when they actually try rolling through major metropolitan areas with strong gang influence? THEY ALL DIE. Not metaphoric or hyperbole, they all get absolutely smoked. So long as they don't still have prominent support from LE in the area (likely sheriff's departments will be hubs for racist state support), these call of duty clown ass white boys will face actual soldiers, thoroughly accustomed to violence, brought by the state. When liberals think "only the right has guns", I don't think they understand just how much gun culture, use, and stockpiling goes on in communities not primarily redneck MAGA.

As far as the stockpiles these right wing nut bags have, most people have a good idea of who,in their town, has a house full. Those homes are much more accessible than any armory, and far less secure. Just saying..

These newly emboldened bigots aren't the big bad they've tried to portray, but liberal media is doing a great job of building them up, smashing them when possible is vital to keep their delusions of grandeur curtailed.

Maybe Maga doesn’t have ALL the guns but they probably have most and a yearning to use them. Maga and guns go together like a horse and carriage. For Dems it is a fish and bicycle. I am suspicious that Republicans decades long resistance to prohibition of military type weapons like AR 15 has been calculated so their side would have weapons that would give them a huge advantage in any conflict and even enable them to fight against the government and military.

It is not true that MAGAs are the ones with all the guns.
