Cynicism will definitely lead you to civil war. Go read up on the Spanish civil war. Their experience might come in handy. Political violence won't help you get out of this polarized mess, it will drag you in deeper.

If radical change is what's necessary. Then civil wars should be on the table. Besides, I'm sure the shooter's goal wasn't to depolarize the masses.

"civil war" in this country = the US military vs the side that gets obliterated inside of 1 week. the question is which side they will pick

Still, that sort of sacrifice should be expected if you want to make changes in your country (the US)

it's the people who are trying to STOP change, or undo it, who are talking about civil war.

Yah I mean, if your narrow understanding of what war is is Trumpets trying to take over the white house than yah, I guess one would hate the idea of using violence for the greater good.

so...given the implication that you have a broad comprehensive understanding of war, your solution is that we should just assassinate people we disagree with? make them martyrs?
