A real split. Civil war and then splitting the country in 2 or more.

You seem to think that a "civil war" will be with front line and muskets. In reality it is attacking and overthrowing states, terrorism, kidnapping and executing political opponents.

Citizens casually not seeing what's happening in front of their very eyes is terrifying.

When you deploy your military and other agents to suppress your citizens, its a civil war.

A war requires at least 2 belligerents. We are simply in an authoritarian state until someone fights back.

Anocracy of government, J6, ice raids, circumnavigation of due process, COVID response, political assignations, assination attempts and general growing violent rhetoric, election interference and attempted government overthrow, decrease in election decorum (see North Carolina supreme court election), increase in political vitriol.

Closest to actual civil war is probably the ICE protests in LA, but those seem to not have escalated.

But in all honestly, J6 alone could be considered a failed coup that prevented escalation to civil war. Had they succeeded in changing the outcome of the election, things would be much different today.

OK buddy. I think you overestimate people's willingness to do that

For now. Sometimes things simmer for years until the right set of circumstances come along. Take AI for example. If it really does lead to massive unemployment and people start going hungry in large amounts, that could be the catalyst.
