A coup can come in many forms. We have people being violent to each other simply if they vote differently.In many other countries if a leader gets elected and people think he shouldn't have been, they just stage a coup.
Jan 6th was a feeble attempt at a coup, hopefully people in America don't get the hang of how to stage one.
Undermining your government does not have to be violent. Money is being spent to undermine your opposing political views. Leaking government held classified technologies (Edward Snowden), Internal Supreme court documents (I'm going to go out on a limb here early and state it will be one of Sotomayor's team), are examples of domestic terrorism meant to overthrow a government.
And if one side is hellbent on taking weapons from the citizens, violence certainly is being taken out of the equation for a coup.
Speaking of Supreme Court Justices. I learned something during the last hearings. I did not know Joe Biden made it clear he would block the progression of the confirmation of the first black woman that was going to be selected. Janice Rogers Brown. I guess he was racist back then. And suddenly he's not. And nowhere in those hearings did the panel bring into focus anything that she may or may not have done as a student in college.
Our own leadership is the hardest at work to undermine the way America is supposed to work.
American media and American politics does their best to overwhelm us with the message in this moment they insist we hear. And we should ignore history that has started the process of division.
A coup has been underway for about 40 years here. It's incremental. It's like a cancer. That they hope they can dumb us down enough that by the time we see the light, the cancer is now terminal.
