if the dreaded second american civil war does break out, its not going to be socialism v fascism like so many fascists and leftists seem to believe. This conflict, much like the revolutionary war, will be a bourgeois revolution. The only real sides to this fight will be military and some police loyal to biden and small parts of the military and untrained and underequipped Trump militias. This is mostly if biden wins by a large margin, if trump decides to cheat the election, libs will probably end up conceding to him and shurgging their shoulders. any kind of armed socialist movement will do nothing but draw the ire of normal people and intelligence agencies, which is like exactly what you don't want to happen if you want to build a real left wing movement in the united states. idk moral of the story: who the fuck cares, fighting for biden is about the same as voting for him. use whatever crisis that arises to advocate for communism, or you can join the biden militias/national guard if u wanna dome nazis idc

    I did a big write-up yesterday on how the conflict brewing is an intrabourgeois conflict and not one between leftists and fascists, with a material/class analysis to back it up.

    I don't think a civil war starts next week, but there will definitely be right wing violence, especially if Trump loses after election day. It is NOT worth it to kill or get killed for Joe fucking Biden. Protect yourself and your family/comrades but do not go out to be adventurist and get people hurt or killed. This isn't the revolution, we won't win, they're is literally zero scenarios where a vague "left" goes out and stops fascism and somehow comes out a victor. The state hates us, including factions aligned with the Democrats, and armed chuds outnumber armed leftists probably 100 to 1 at least.

    Stay safe, keep talking about socialism, buy guns and ammo and get in shape. There is a good chance we actually will have a real fight ahead of us but it's not coming next week or even next year.
