Wrong, if it were the purge, the problem would be over and done with within 12 hours, the police are still doing their jobs, they even stepped it up by a lot, they are just arresting everyone BUT the leftists destroying the city.
However, the ultimate ego pill is this: it's always the purge, it's been the purge 24/7 since the dawn of Mankind, it can be nothing but the purge.
Laws do not exist as anything other than a very general map of where consequences may be encountered for doing certain things.
Breaking the law might not get you in trouble and obeying the might not prevent you from getting into trouble.
It's not laws that regulate your behavior, it's the consequences that you expect for doing so.
Same applies to the government, if there are no expected consequences for doing something, them there is nothing preventing people from doing it, and if it benefits them to break the laws or violate the rights of others to benefit themselves, then the laws and rights shall not be considered.
The government is just a Tulpa of the masses, which only exists as a construct of faith, the momment people reject its legitimacy, the government ceases to exist.
A civil war is just reducing the numbers of those who beleive in one version of the government vs another, or getting those who disagree to remove their beliefs from the decision as to what government has legitimacy in being considered authoritative.
Morals are like laws, only with social consequences or psychological consequences to consider instead of more physical ones to be expected, the truth is, if you can do something and not feel bad about it, and if you can do it without anyone else thinking badly of you for doing it (such as them not being aware of you doing something), then there is nothing stopping you from doing this thing, and if it benefits you to do it, then you shall, regardless of what moral code you ascribe to, and whether doing this act violates those principles.
There are no authorities, no laws, and no morals, except those you choose to recognize.
The only thing that exists is the physical reality and your will over what you can do with the part of it which you can control, that being your own mind and body.
You are already free to do as you please, everything is yours to take, it is ultimately power and will that dictates everything.
