I've written about this for years here on Medium. There won't be a civil war in the historic fashion because we are already in a cold civil war, aka culture wars. That's not to say there won't be violence, maybe some random bombing like Timothy McVeigh, but can you imagine a bunch of Texas yahoos getting in their pickup trucks and driving to DC to take over or even going to a liberal state to pick a fight. It would be a blood bath. No, these lazy bastard LARPers will sit on their couch, drink Coors Light and polish their guns whining about socialist while they collect a nice paycheck from whatever job they have. Times are too good to give it up for a nice bloody civil war.
