    Nearly 200 years ago, and a very small subsection of slave owning agricultural bourgeoisie that found their ownership of the means of production threatened. The northern capitalists were more then pissed at what the south attempted.

    There is no such precedent this time around. The bourgeoisie are united in their ideals and goals.

      The resource-extractive petite bourgeoisie has a major problem with the national bourgeoisie that’s getting even richer by outsourcing everything to China. This is why there’s such a major contradiction between the liberals and fascists in the USA, why 1/6 happened, and why liberals and fascists view each other as illegitimate brainwashed playthings of foreign powers. I think the petite bourgeoisie and their labor aristocrat hangers-on are approaching a point where war is becoming their only option. In such a scenario, we wouldn’t just be dealing with the chud dipshits in the countryside with five hundred guns in their basements. We’d also have to deal with elements in the military who are at this moment wondering if they’re going to have to do a coup.
