People are also extremely, extremely atomized. Like those guys who tried to kidnap Whitmer? It was like twelve guys who met in a chat room and four of them were feds. When the IRA was fighting the IRA cells were often made up of people who had known each other their entire life, grown up in Republican culture, fully understood the stakes and what kind of depravity the British were capable of. They could trust each other as much as any human being can be trusted. They knew the countryside intimately and could cooperate to move supplies and weapons. They had a well established network of popular support and allies in the civilian population. And even so, most IRA cells were eventually hunted down, even with all those advantages.
The CHUDs are just a bunch of random assholes with completely incoherent politics, extremely individualist beliefs, no clear goal, and no real support from the community (Like "I just shot someone and I need to live in your basement for six months" support or "I need to borrow your car and you need to not ask any questions" support or "Hold this package until a man named John comes to get it" support).
They're well armed and mobile so they can do individual attacks on soft targets, but for more organized, long term, serious operations they're not there yet.
i have no idea who that is but yeah people aren't desperate enough for anything large-scale.
that's our large son
