(25,399 posts)Elon thinks he's von Braun, but he's more of a Hans Kammler type.
An engineering PhD, SS-Obergruppenführer Kammler was in charge of the V-weapons, as well as much of the architecture of mass murder for the Holocaust, only to disappear after the war.
His whereabouts are still unknown. Likely, he was saved from the hangman by the nascent CIA for use in the Cold War.

(3,499 posts)He has made both good and bad business decisions - got his first serious money bump from PayPal.
He fashions himself a scientist (SpaceX - Starlink) but it's the people who work for him that bring the brains to pull it off.

(1,213 posts)Anyone can get that degree. It's not all that difficult if you have even a middling aptitude for the subject at all.
A serious physicist will have a PhD.
That Afrikaans traitor is nothing but a poseur, with delusions of grandeur.

(11,336 posts)1) The right to follow a woman's menstrual cycle every month, with government oversight (but NO PRENATAL CARE)
2) The right to yell slurs at minorities - take your pick: a) LGBTQ, b) racial, c) ageist, d) ethnicity, e) sexual preferences, or f) anyone not exactly like me (whatever THAT may be)
3) The right to force people into my religion (Constitution be damned!)
4) The right to deny people healthcare - get sick, die fast dammit - doncha know???
5) The right to allow billionaires to pay less taxes than a janitor or repairman or police/fire/EMTs?
6) The right to chant "lock up" (where 'her' is pretty much any woman with ambition, talent and the will to fight)
7) The right to refuse to serve people you yelled slurs at in #2?
8) The right to rig elections instead of win them?
9) The right to deport people at will or barring that just round them up and put them in camps? *VERY popular with the skinhead crowd*
Civil War means all out warfare.
Urban guerillas taking out water supplies and electrical grids.
Transportation between states (and thus trade) shut down due to infrastructure dammage, bandits and thieves, and targeting of supply lines.
Starvation, disease, malnutrition and deprivation, and refugees on a scale NEVER seen in North America (well at least not unless you were indigenous and being marched on the Trail of Tears).
They think that "we have the guns and the 'tough guys' that will win the war"...same thing the Germans thought in WWI and everyone else that believed "over the top boys" was a "strategy". Like Mike Tyson said - "Everyone has a plan until you hit them in the mouth."
The idea that a shooting civil war is nigh is simple minded and about what I would expect from people who saw "Rambo" in 1985 and thought he single-handedly defeated the Vietnamese and Russians and won the Cold War...or any of the other similar films with Norris or Stallone or Schwarzenegger prior to the "expendables" films in recent years.
If those are the animating beliefs that these people want to fight to the death for, well all I can say is 'good luck with that' - especially after the food runs out and the supply lines to the hinterlands dry up and nothing is available in those nice big (empty of infrastructure and people) red states.
The single biggest difference in 2024 America is the camp of people who want to take away rights and protections from all and the camp of people who WANT "project 2025" and to take AWAY those same rights. I have chosen my side. I AM willing to die for a country that protects those things and the rights of ALL citizens to live in peace and free from systemic persecution or worse.
Justice matters.

(1,798 posts)The first time some militia shows up, tries to do something, we just drop a little bomb on them. That will take the fight out of most of them. Back to mother's basement! Retreat!
None of this shit about meeting them in the streets, doing urban warfare. One little bomb and the end.
There won't be another Jan6 event, because we're ready for them now. There would be an armed response and maybe a few RPGs shot into their midst. Boom. We're done. Send in the cleanup crew.
See, they threaten this stuff because they think we're weak. Liberals got no guts, no fight in them. But we have to make certain and sure deterrents so we can cut this nonsense down to the root. It would take a long time for it to grow again. And then we repeat, and we do it every single time.
