I am honestly surprised one hasn't happened within the last 10 years already.

[-] Zorque@kbin.social 10 points 8 months ago

That's because people are far too invested in their own comforts. 1/6 was an outlier because they were under the mistaken impression that Trump would lift even a single finger to protect them, which has not played out at all.

We might see a similar event after the 2024 election if Trump doesn't win again, but not on any kind of national scale.

Which really goes to show how far from reality their perception of trump really is

Didn't he just promise to free all of his imprisoned idiots? I'm sure he'll get right on that

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

There are only two things left that trump could do that would actually surprise me, which is impressive considering how often I was shocked by his actions in the beginning. Those two things are "tell the truth", and "do the right thing". If he ever does either of those things my mind will explode.

I was until I though about how much work that would be. I think people would much rather yell at there television.

Well, we have 11 months prep-time for this one, so we should use it wisely

  1. Get a passport if you don't have one already

  2. Get in shape -- you are either going to be running or engaging in combat so be sure you're physically fit enough to do it

  3. Get a gun if you don't have one and learn how to use it properly

  4. Build an emergency fund -- even if it's just a couple hundred dollars, that's enough for a bus ticket to a safe state or out of the country entirely

  5. Have an exit plan with your loved ones and make sure you have somewhere to go

I can't tell if this is a meme or if you're being serious.

[-] Sheeple@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago

Tbh all of these are reasonable even if there is no threat of collapse like that kind of stuff is just basic shit you do in your life

[-] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 6 points 8 months ago

The chances of there being wide scale unrest after the election are pretty high actually. I think they have a point.

[-] Zorque@kbin.social 3 points 8 months ago

If by wide scale unrest you mean people bitching on twitter and facebook, sure.

They'll probably put more Infowars stickers on their work coolers as well, that'll show 'em.

[-] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 6 points 8 months ago

They stormed the Capitol last time they lost, are you actually that naieve?

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 4 points 8 months ago

Honesty your time is better spent doing other things. You are way more likely to die in a car than you are from the collapse of society.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

I already moved to the mountains. I'll just keep truckin along like I already do. Ain't nobody coming up here.
