I'd love the late 1800's early 1900's period. I'd be dead or on my way there by time this rotten s*** started. If there's ever a way to invent a time machine, you know where I'm going.
Sometimes, I hope a race-based civil war starts.. it might be the only way to stop this BS quickly.

I think we have a naive view of war in the United States. We have not had a war on our soil since the 1860s and only two single attacks since then. The classroom narrative of all of our wars is that we were the good guys and successfully defended our liberty, accrued new territories, or thwarted some evil regime. We currently have been at war since 2001 and it isn't even noticeable other than the news or for people with friends and family in the military. For most people the sole tangible effect of war is spending a few dollars on a yellow ribbon. The truth is that war is devastating for the host countries. It cripples economies, demolishes infrastructure, jeopardizes liberty, and robs a nation of its youth. A racial/ethnic war would be characterized by incessant atrocities and reprisals. There would be no concept of non-combatants thus it would be a total war. You shoot a couple roving thugs, well, their comrades go pillage and ethnically cleanse a nursing home in revenge. Lastly, racism along with anti-Semitism are the last great sins left in the United States so a race war would simply be a tiny fraction of the white population fighting against the non-whites and the U.S. government and the state governments. Basically a "race" war would mostly be SWAT and U.S. military raids on white resistance targets.ÂÂÂ
