You can have all the expensive equipment you want. They don't have the numbers. When your enemies are all around you and this military historically fucking sucks at combating insurgency, you're going to lose.

The military would be smart to tell this dude to pound sand before they, and a bunch of people die in a new civil war that they can't win against the most armed civilian population on the planet.

Be the flames you wish to see in the world.

100% this. Which is why I kind of chuckle when I hear people worried about martial law.

Even with every cop and military officer in the country you still could not hope to restrain a properly motivated American population. They have no hope of even restraining half of the population.

People know their own turf and this country is far too big for that. Wanna do it to Canada? The country with some of the most consistently capable and highly regarded soldiers of the past 100+ years? Good luck. Lmao

I live in the rural area of one of the most red states.

I am also as far left as someone can be before the horseshoe turns into authoritarianism again.

The left is armed. We just have the decades of experience necessary to know that you don't advertise your capabilities. Especially in an open forum like the fucking internet.
