This is precisely my issue with Anglin...
There will be no Civil War. We're too far in to this process for /ourguys/ to accept that route. This will only be publicly accomplished without violence.
This will only be publicly accomplished without violence.
Do you mean that the violence will be kept out of the public awareness?
Essentially.
I doubt you'll ever hear the name of a man or woman that actually died, who are the true superheros of this story.
There certainly have been hot elements already, you just never heard about it.
Anyway, Anglin's headline here is mocking the idea that a civil war is ever going to happen. He is arguing that no resistance will ever be able to organize given the current state of the web, because our communication lines can simply be cut off and information about what is happening can be suppressed.
Well, to your credit, I didn't read the article.
Maybe all of the times I remember being impatient with him were this exact same scenario...
Still, he should expect people just look the other way when they see a sensationalist headline like this.
I've made the same mistake before, but you should try to at least skim the article if you are going to criticize it.
