    It's one thing to understand that revolution will require violence and another to be obsessed with the violence that will happen during a revolutionary period. Some comrades fit the latter description and I don't think that's a healthy place to be in.

      We'd all love for those who control the means of production to yield them because we all voted or whatever.

      Were also not idiots and know that will never happen

            They don't currently have the ability to use kinetic impactors, they won't for at least another decade, If we've taken US military bases we'll have ASAT weapons, and if there's a revolution it will come with military revolts. so we too will have rocks to drop.

                Uh..as far as I know the only armed Space Station ever was Saylut 3. They absolutely could do a self nuke, but that would be difficult given how the system is set up.

                Again, MAD involves people. Some of those people will be revolutionaries and we will have control of those facilities. Worst case scenario we can Kessler LEO pretty easily and then nothing is getting through..

      That's a fair statement but it's an overly charitable reading of what these people are suggesting.

        yea, looks like pre-election anxiety is giving Lindsey a strong case of the libs
