Those are trolls trying to cause chaos. It’s obviously suicide if anyone does what the trolls are telling them to do.

It’s sort of why I’m vocal when I see those comments pop up. Remind them that it’s a stupid position to have to start with, anyone actually planning to do something knows what OPSEC is, and they know any action has to be extraordinarily precise, not just shooting at feds.
But it is a valid counter-argument to the validity of the second amendment. Even if you got a thousand or two of your well-armed friends together to topple the tyranny, you would likely only win the battle and not the war.

No, it’s tangential to this, but still related.

More people need to do this, anybody calling for violence on social media is either a provocateur/non-US National or a dangerously naive American who will cause more harm than good.
There are many roads to a good outcome through peaceful means, once someone starts to resort to violence the options rapidly become limited. Anyone who thinks that we should move into that second world is actively dangerous to everyone that lives in the US.

What gets me is that Americans are constantly going stuff. I remember during March of last year people kept going on about how the French burned Tesla cars but Americans were “doing nothing.”
They kept saying this while there was constant vandalism all across the country. Reddit wouldn’t allow posts on the topic, so many didn’t know it was happening.
Even with the vandalism, that isn’t what took down DOGE. The biggest hit was simply the boycott and divestment from Tesla stocks.
