Listen, I know wars are horribly bad. I’m really sorry even asking such a question.

I’m Canadian. It seems that the fascists are set on military action against Greenland. I’m highly afraid that we’re next. So I’m hoping the following happens in order:

  1. No wars. Somehow, legally the fascist executive is stopped. This unfortunately seems unlikely…
  2. They get bogged down in a war elsewhere. This prevents them from coming after Canada. I know this is me being extremely selfish, but whatever.
  3. A civil war begins. No one has to worry about being invaded.

So my question is related to the third possibility. What could start a civil war? Could an invasion of Greenland and the following economic collapse (hopefully caused by the EU dropping US treasuries) be the spark?

    What would the two sides be? The political class makes noises but is either completely in the bag or still in the bag just complaining about it sometimes. The capitalists with all the wealth and influence is making lots of money and being promised more. The small capitalists are gullible, reactionary strivers and graspers. And the middle and lower classes, who would have to be united in action and word by coherent political party of the people are totally atomized and incoherent, no such party exists, no nascent program could unite them.

    Things are changing quickly, something that was impossible last year could become inevitable next year. But there aren’t sides to the civil war, it is a one-sided class war as it always has been.
