Civil Unrest Is The Next Most Predictable Crisis For America Now

For the past six months I’ve been writing about the clear uptick in cινιℓ ωαr rhetoric within the establishment media in the US, and we all know that the coming presidential election is the reason for it. The bottom line is that no matter who ends up in the White House in 2025 there will be mass violence, but most of this violence will be reserved for the possibility of Donald Trump’s return.
Set aside the recent attempted assassination (and how the Secret Service made it possible) for a moment and let’s consider the common leftist response to it – Around 30% of Democrats believe the attack was “staged” (virtually impossible given the circuмstances and evidence). The rest are enraged that the shooter missed. No event has exposed the political left for what they truly are more than the near-murder of Donald Trump. We are dealing with bloodthirsty mental deficients that will do anything to win.
The “false left/right paradigm” is dead, at least when it comes to average American citizens. The political left is not just an innocent subset of the population being led astray by false leadership – They are a big part of the problem. They are willing participants in the destruction of the west. Globalists would get nowhere on economic centralization, the DEI agenda, the trans agenda, carbon taxation, anti-2A legislation, open borders, etc. without help from a large portion of leftists.
I have long cautioned that the political left is slowly but surely becoming a happy cannon fodder army in service to globalism. And sadly, leftists tend to engage in warfare while conservatives tend to engage in politics. Leftists use any means necessary and feel thoroughly justified. Conservatives color within the lines for fear of being accused of “fascism.” We don’t have to abandon our moral compass, but the sooner we realize that war is being waged on us the sooner we can defend ourselves against it.
As we have seen in Europe (in France the past month), any perceived shift towards conservative influence in government will undoubtedly result in riots and chicanery from socialists. The media has so infected the minds of progressives that they truly believe they are the “good guys” and that conservatives intend to “end democracy.” Thus, in their view all violence or sabotage against conservatives (and independents) is justified.
In the long run the left’s violence and hysteria is only inspiring conservatives to respond with aggression in kind. This is where the potential for civil conflict arises. Leftists argue that only they are virtuous enough to be allowed to dictate policy and law. Yet, their ideology also embraces moral relativism, so you can see where this thing is headed…
They will continue to press for the erosion of western heritage and principles and, eventually, regular people are going to fight back; they have no choice. Leftists and globalists expect resistance, to a point. I believe part of their strategy is a classic communist provocation; for patriots to react with violence thereby giving the establishment fuel for a demonization campaign (much like January 6^th). It’s not going to go the way they think it will next time and the response will be far larger and more swift than they anticipate.
Meanwhile, if Trump enters office again the rioting America dealt with in 2020 will be a cakewalk compared to 2025. Progressives claim they are “protecting democracy” but you will see very quickly that as soon as democracy doesn’t go their way they will abandon it in a heartbeat and seek to prevail using other methods.
This means a campaign of “monkey wrenching” followed by riots, looting and disruptions in major cities.
One rising trend that should have all business owners and preppers on alert is the use of social media apps to coordinate seemingly spontaneous riots. These events can be organized within hours, encouraging some of the worst people to congregate and strike a business block without ever meeting each other before. What I worry about is that these methods will expand beyond business districts and local government buildings.
Travel routes will come under threat, freight could be targeted and we may even see looters and rioters move into residential areas further away from the city center. Supply chain issues will surely arise. At the very least there will be concerns among freight drivers that they are taking a risk carrying truckloads of goods into places where they could be surrounded by an angry mob and hijacked (or worse).
Large scale crime in general is bad for the economy. As we’ve witnessed in cities like Chicago and San Francisco, unchecked crime forces companies to move out of a region and leave those places barren. They call it a “food desert” – A place where tens of thousands of people have no close access to groceries or retail goods. Looting and rioting are an accelerating catalyst for this scenario. Once stores are looted or burned, they may never try to rebuild.
What I am describing is a much larger number of incidents with a longer duration than 2020. I’m talking about prolonged civil unrest and I predict this will become the norm going into next year. Don’t count on the government to provide sufficient aid. Don’t count on FEMA rations or a national guard response that does anything other than exacerbate the problem. Don’t rely on outside help – You’ll regret it.
There are different levels of civil unrest. Sometimes it starts as a less malicious redress of grievances, but often it becomes a vehicle for random destruction. The best way to counter indiscriminate violence is with directed and focused self defense, along with the proper supplies to keep you going until things calm down.
Also, don’t think just because you live in the suburbs or a rural town that these threats don’t concern you. In Argentina during their economic collapse in 2001, gangs of looters stalked rural areas with impunity while cities ground to a standstill. Once the cities are hollowed out, where do you think the worst people will go next?
In the US we have similar circuмstances to Argentina in which economic crisis has the ability to feed directly into preexisting divisions. Politically motivated bad actors could be inspired to sabotage normal services in the face of limited law enforcement opposition. There are people who will do anything to get their way.
Organize accordingly and keep your own supplies ready. There are plenty of people out there that think they are owed something. They think they are owed a political win, or social power, or maybe they just think they’re owed access to other people’s stuff. Right now the US is a powderkeg waiting to go off and the coming election period will be the fuse.

If and when civil unrest breaks out in the US, probably in November, I will be at home, far from any city or town. I’m more likely to see a battle between bull moose over a lively cow than crazy humanoids rioting over election results. (If there IS an election!)

Let them try to come to the rural towns in my area. Chances are, they'll get shot. I hear random gun and rifle shots all the time here in the middle of nowhere. I had two different contractors come over to my house to give me a bid on putting a door on my garage, and they both knocked on the door first, and then said that they wanted to let me know they were on the property, because they didn't want to risk getting shot. Not that they thought that I would do such a thing, but this area has a certain reputation.

Small towns in central and eastern Washington state are used to making due with what they have on hand. We can't just run to the store if we need some little thing for dinner.
Folks here can wait it out. And they are armed.

Mark is correct though. I saw a thread here a couple years ago that had a link showing how the commie regimes throughout Asia and similar all did basically the same things. They wanted the rural people in the cities so they could control them better and to capture those they thought were "dissidents" by torching, bombing, or using other tactics like putting violent criminals and such out to do the dirty work and kill those who would not go along and all used as tactics to get rural people to flee to the cities so they could be dealt with accordingly.

A few rednecks with guns can't stop war planes beyond reach of conventional firearms from dropping bombs and torching everything via a scorched earth policy and then them unleashing feral people onto what ever remains after whatever militias and their properties around are reduced to shambles or are in disarray. Will the militias do some minor damage to the regime? Sure, but they're not going to win unless an entire branch or more of the military goes "AWOL" and joins the militias to fight the regime but "you know who" are at the top of the world's militaries and we know who they serve. They did this tactic in all those Asian countries to install communism and they'll do the same here when the time comes.
