Nothing is going to happen if Trump regime prospers except get worse.
Only a collapse of the economy will matter.
Anarchism is only a threat, it is an opportunity for change. We have already tasted authoritarianism, so there won't be change in that direction.
Those boys of 1775, were what you would call anarchists, destroying the old order, to build a new.
Poverty and slavery do not necessarily follow and internal collapse
But the direction we are now headed in, is poverty and slavery.
If Trusk succeeds in taking down Social Security, Medicaid, the social safety net, we have that poverty and deaths from starvation, exposure and lack of medical care.
As to slavery, well most of us are already wage slaves, a slave is dependent upon others for continued life, and under their control.
Chattel slavery is only one form of slavery, heck people are even a slave to "love".
Actually the leaders were virtually all institutionalists and "capitalists." In 1775 the richest man in the US was John Hancock -- who signed the Declaration as president. Jefferson owned slaves, was a planter -- but he espoused "liberal" concepts, mostly taken from John Locke. Life, liberty and property evolved into life, liberty an the pursuit of happiness. Inalienable rights.
Yes Daniel I know that they were institutionalists and capitalists, but tearing down the old order is an act of anarchy, they succeeded then set about rebuilding it as a Republic.
And that is what I was saying, we need to tear down the old order, that it can be rebuilt.
It is too late to salvage it, Trump has already destroyed it and it can't be salvaged. There is no going back, There is only going forward with Trump's theocratic autocracy or tearing it all down (anarchy) and rebuilding a new and healthy democracy.
I'm not waiting for the Mesiah.
We will be moved by circumstance. Right now, the BATNA is we win the upcoming interim elections and/or Feathers of Hope works.
The WATNA is we lose democracy and all become impoverished.
One thing I have learned Daniel is don't rely on institutions, especially the rule of law.
The only thing that will save us is internal collapse and 1789
Anarchism.
Inteernal collapse means poverty and slavery.
Internal collapse of the Trump regime.
