    My kid doesn’t particularly want to fight, but she’s ok with guns and convinced anarchy will be good for the environment?! Idk, she’s not dumb, but these kids have less stake in the institutions than MAGA retirees…

      The fact they will never have the chance to enter the ownership class keeps manifesting in new and interesting ways in the media, at their jobs, in their schools, amongst their social circles. The decline in availability of material wealth destabilizes all.

      Yall ever seen Daybreakers? It’s kinda corny but it feels more relevant every day.

          Long after the rebellion, modern Haiti is a lawless nightmare, complete with natural disaster inflicted devastation and chronic foreign occupation.

          I’ll take the strict authorizatism of Japan or the brutal backwards theocracy of Florida over that kind of anarchy.
