I have finally accepted that all the talk of civil war is a wishful cope, and a lazy one at that. All of this alt-right "theory" is. It's just a bunch of unhappy young men trying to come up with a 'deep' explanation for why they're unhappy (and one that validates their video game addict fantasies of violence), because they're too scared to acknowledge even to themselves that most of the causes are personal and individual. The truth is that most of our issues literally just come down to how our parents talked to us growing up, and to a lesser extent teachers. But no one wants to be the "whiner" who vents about their dad, so they opt to just go on about more colorful meme issues like Jews. If you'll look into this you'll see that I'm completely right, every time you meet one of these guys they have serious personal issues that clearly stem from their upbringing, but they've adopted this silly 'trad' ideology that tells them that parents are always right and growing up just means respecting them for their abuse even more.
What's more is the smaller part of our generation's issues that are systemic and politically-driven are fucking boring as hell and don't offer anyone worth blaming. Corporations have figured out how to exercise a lot of leverage over you so you have to beg for a job and walk on egg shells once you have it, and wages are low compared to the cost of living. It's just something that happened through a bunch of subliminal shifts in economics and culture over the years, shooting someone won't change it.
America is going to deal with some rough situations for the next few years and decades, but they won't cause a civil war, not even close. Things are quite stable in the way that they suck, we're just going to live in it. It's hard to accept that some problems don't bring about a boiling point where a resolution gets forced, but that's the reality.
