Law enforcement officials are investigating whether the incidents were coordinated and whether they could be connected to other recent attacks on substations.
Nah, the war will start when the states grasp on power fades. Destruction of infrastructure is a clear sign that the state can no longer protect itself.
The Floyd protests are one of the first clashes of the factions and the burning of the police precinct will be one of the first moments that the state started losing control, but if these substation attacks continue, then state power is going to very rapidly decline.
I consider that more of an escalation of a low intensity conflict into a higher intensity one, but it is legit if people just refer to the higher intensity shit as the war.
I think its a question of whether you consider shit like the Troubles or the Years of Lead as a civil war. I def think we are in that kind of conflict right now, but its def not like Syrian civil war intensity at this point.
Yeah, is not really gonna pop off until there's troops occupying the streets for an extended period of time. This chain of events with substation destruction has the possibility of triggering that response. The protests came close, so 2020 could also be a contender for the seed event
Hopefully there will be an American battleship Potemkin
I feel like it’s one of those things where if things do one day get to Syrian civil war intensity, our near-Troubles level might be included, but if it calms down it won’t be called a civil war.

Personally, I'm holding out for a War of 1812 moment, where the US narrowly avoided being conquered by Bob Ross.
