Listen, I know wars are horribly bad. I’m really sorry even asking such a question.
I’m Canadian. It seems that the fascists are set on military action against Greenland. I’m highly afraid that we’re next. So I’m hoping the following happens in order:
- No wars. Somehow, legally the fascist executive is stopped. This unfortunately seems unlikely…
- They get bogged down in a war elsewhere. This prevents them from coming after Canada. I know this is me being extremely selfish, but whatever.
- A civil war begins. No one has to worry about being invaded.
So my question is related to the third possibility. What could start a civil war? Could an invasion of Greenland and the following economic collapse (hopefully caused by the EU dropping US treasuries) be the spark?

Though accurate, this analysis is an example of hindsight bias. It’s tempting (for me at least) to get angry at people such as the Democrats who were in power at the time for not doing more to stop it. But all we can really do now is use what we have learned to strengthen democracy… on our next turn around the wheel or whatever.
Yep! Eisenhower was a born-again Christian. He’s the reason the U.S. has “in god we trust” on everything.
Nixon totally worshipped him, too, as vice president.
There’s also a massive thread of white supremacy of course, which has been supported by the government for a decade now.
