Individuals with guns defending against a modern military with drones and tanks is a fantasy.
- gustavus 6d agoLike a bunch of guys with guns couldn't defeat the well drilled and maintained British regulars that are backed by massive warships. Or a bunch of dudes with guns in the jungles of Vietnam couldn't beat a modern military with fighters and bombers and tanks. Or a bunch of dudes in the mountain wilderness with guns couldn't beat a modern military with satellites, smart missiles, night vision and drones Or a bunch of dudes in the deserts of yemen couldn't defend against a modern military with aircraft carriers, realtime control of almost all communications, autonomous drones and missiles and 5th gen fighters History and current events seem to be disagreeing with you.
- ikiris 6d agoThis is laughably uninformed for what the goals are of those conflicts. Suppression of populace is vastly different than "trying to beat terrorism" or end resistance in a jungle. Go take a look at actutal comparable environments, like china, or north korea for how well that goes for the dissenters
- rylando 6d agoI don’t think it’d get to that point but maybe. I’m imagining more events like Luigi (not condoning violence just equating situations)
