The only reason it would happen here, is because sheep like you with more brains that balls, would just blindly do what you're told. Never served in the military did you? Honestly, from the way you talk about these issues, I know you know more than I do about it. I never assumed you didn't know these things. But you seem to put so much into the way our system of government works. Yes, I know there is a separation of offices in the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government. But these branches would have very little power if the people chose to put our collective foot down. If one gained more power than the other two and scales tipped and fire rained from the sky as the Antichrist rose to power, the American people can just say no. There are nowhere near enough police and/or military power to stop the people. And I can tell you that, in the event of some kind of unjust or unconstitutional order, the military wouldn't do much for the government. [spoiler]How dare you point out my pronoun problem? I'm offended..[/spoiler]

  • Smh. All you need to do is watch Fox News to understand why it could happen here. Just because you live in a democracy don't naively assume that everyone values it the same. All you have to do is create enough chaos, and make people frightened and resentful enough and the average person will GIVE away their freedom in exchange for the illusion of safety and the opiate of material prosperity. Why do you think the Chinese are so focused on their economy? Since Tienamen Square they've been trying to use prosperity to lull their people back to sleep and have them forget that their simply living in a police state. Any communist pretenses having been dropped decades ago.
