I’ve listened to the Poor Proles Almanac and they’re basically left-unity (anarchist) preppers. Their information is probably useful either way, though. I just started listening to It Could Happen Here, and the first episode is pretty cringe. Robert Evans is anti-Assad and thinks a Syrian civil war type scenario could happen here. He praises maidan coup fascist protesters (without mentioning their fascism or US backing). And of course, he thinks a collapse could be soon in 2019 and a lot of crazy stuff has happened since, but no civil war. I’ll keep listening critically to see if he has anything decent to say, but not looking good. As the empire crumbles and climate change gets worse is a collapse scenario realistic?

      I disagree that an actual civil war is in the cards. Wars are fought over territory, and while the country is divided politically, those divisions don’t clearly map onto particular territories within the US. What I could see happening is something like the Years of Lead, with various political factions engaging in street fighting and mounting terrorist attacks amid generally worsening economic conditions.

      I can’t wait for Trump to win for 2 reasons. First, I can’t bear to see or listen to Biden anymore, at least Trump is funny and because I can’t wait to see the fuckup he will cause.
