Local weirdo dekachin went on twitter (before Elon bought it) and posted a hypothetical to own the feminists: "would you rather get raped, or do 10 years in prison?" This was supposed to illustrate that the #MeToo culture hurt men more than women because rape is the risk for them, and prison from false accusations is the risk for men, but prison is worse. After his post went viral and he was banned, he came here to whine about it.
Obviously the problem is he assumed everyone would pick "I'd rather get raped," which is lunacy. Somewhere along the line it became "rape or death" and the split was about 50/50 here, which is still crazy to me because we used to be a dueling culture where men shot at each other over the reputation of their name. I'm not saying that was ideal, but now some dudes, even on the right, think it's okay to give up their own cornhole.
It just puts the lie to this accelerationism larp where your fantasy is Civil War 2. Wars are messy. They require the conviction to potentially die for your ideals, not just kill. But you'd literally offer up your own butt, or more realistically your wife's butt, because "what else am I supposed to do?"
The American Civil War is an anomaly, not the norm. Our Civil War was really just a regular war between two countries. Normal civil wars are fought by a miniscule percentage of people against their own government, and often isnt called a civil war until years after the fact. A 50/50 split on a dumb hypothetical doesn't indicate that there's no possibility of a civil war. The fact that 50% would rather die shows that at least some of them could be capable of guerilla warfare.
Enjoying this discussion more than the "would you die to stop your own buttrape" debate that idiot lawyer dekachin started here. Lol
That question fraud checked a lot of people

You are mostly correct, but my point is that it's a pretty stupid thing to pray for if you're on the wrong 50 of that split.
