Do you see the possibility of another civil war? (lemmy.world)

I think that it will not be waged between North and South for state rights, but rather between Republicans and Democrats for human rights. It will happen before our 250th anniversary in 2026.

I don't think it will devolve to a shooting war like 150 years ago, mainly because ordinary Americans have too much going on to want to send the army to preserve the Union. I can see the Conservative states saying "Do things our way or we're leaving!" And the rest of the country saying "Bye! Good luck running a country without our tax revenue!"
