Civil war. It will probably have to come to this, some day or other.

Or you know - find everyone congressperson who is not doing their job, figure out if they are breaking state, federal law, or even party law. Get special elections going and get a working congress.

This paralysis amongst Americans is very un American.

You have a decent poltical set up. Use it. You don’t need a magic wand like a civil war.

You need to do the boring dull work of reading, analyzing and then making executable plans and getting to it.

I’m not that old, and I remember people learning how to make satellites as undergrads in the states. For elective classes. And actually having the damn things go up into space.

It’s your life and your country.

edit: I was wrong in suggesting finding ways to get to special elections. There are very few ways for a congressperson to be removed.

For other ideas - just ask them to resign. Seriously - I doubt many republicans wanted to be part of THIS congress, and have already stated they are afraid of retribution.

Ask them to resign, and have people who can take the heat take their seats.

Either way, congress needs to work, and for this people need to find their spines, or make way for someone who has a spine.

Civil war is NOT a solution, its a failure state, and a failure of imagination and effort on the part of what I remember America to be about.

If you’re not willing to pick up arms and fight, chances are no one else is, so it will never happen. Most likely nothing can be done and people will just live under a totalitarian fascist regime for the duration of their lives. Keep talking about civil war, you’ll be imprisoned and silenced. You should delete your post.
