So, lets say we get to August or some summer month, and 4,000,000 people are protesting right out front the white house.

Do they send in the tanks? Do they kill 1,000,000 people? Would republican civilians see empathy for the dead americans who were democrats? Or would it unite the nation like 9/11 did, except this time against the government?

    It’s honestly hard to say.

    Doing it today? Probably no. Communication isn’t nearly as censored as it was in 1989 China.

    However there’s 2 possible ways I could see a “yes”.

    1. If the fascists are able to remain in power long enough too reach that level of censorship.
    2. If they’re simply just that god damn stupid, which I’ve seen little to no evidence to suggest they aren’t that stupid.
