Time would be better spent overthrowing the capitalists at this point than doing that.

That’s a big IF for the military being willing. They are a huge chunk of the budget and that would be a PR nightmare and jeopardize their generally positive public perception

When the military starts killing its own citizens it also galvanizes the population. It’s going to cause massive unrest even if they “win.”

The military won’t last long if they kill their entire workforce. At best they can have a stalemate, where “they” win, but no longer have anyone to build their weapons and ammo anymore.

I think people would give in to it should there be some organized effort to do just that. That’s the problem though… that requires people who know how to organize that kind of thing to do it with the entire pedo state three letter agencies trying to dismantle their efforts and incriminate them.

It requires like former military / police people to set up something like that and right now they’re all quite loyal to the pedo state(s).

Is there any effort at the No Kings protests to encourage people to get armed and trained to protect their communities should the need arise?

Militias and Firearms are enshrined in the constitution—it doesn’t need to be a right only thing.

First thing everyone in America can do is buy and learn how to safely use, and store a firearm. It won’t be the first line of action that should be taken, but it’s important for when they refuse to cede power and use violence against everyone.

More people need to be trained to defend themselves, and their freedoms.

It’s not “society’s children” they’re refusing to support, it’s their shitty employer under capitalism. If we lived in a utopian society, you’d have a point. It’s not the employee’s role to sacrifice for some other person the employer is accommodating at your expense.

To be fair current Congress works together all the time to enrich their donors and corporations at the expense of the average American
