Americans are too spoiled, coddled, lazy, entitled, dependant, and apathetic to fight a civil war.

As the Lenin quote goes, every society is three hot meals away from chaos. The standard of living in US is rapidly collapsing, and people's wages are not keeping up with the cost of living. That can't go on forever.

That's a great quote. I hadn't heard that one from him.

Lenin had a lot of bangers, although some stuff ends up being attributed to him without clear sources.
