The Civil War… The bloodiest war in American history; brother fighting against brother.
All other American wars combined, through the Korean War, claimed fewer lives than the Civil War alone. In World War II, 30 out of every 10,000 men in uniform perished. Civil War combat was six times as deadly, killing 182 per 10,000.
I hope that ends up being worse than this. I’m not sure it will be, but even if it is, the Civil War is a very high watermark. Things can get very very very VERY BAD without reaching that point. We don’t want to get anywhere close to that
Mostly cause I kinda doubt the Russian have fully operational nukes. The minutemen missiles are bitch to maintain with a military budget of fuck you. Meanwhile the Russians cant even build a proper modern MBT thats not based off of old Soviet tanks, either the missiles or warheads are broken is my bet.
Uh, civil war & Lincoln assassination?

I simply chose the most obvious episode. There are others that were worse than our current time. We haven’t even topped the JFK/RFK/MLK era.
None of those had the president selling classified documents to the enemy countries.
Last I checked we aren’t a cunt hair’s breadth from nuclear war with Russia.
All of the 80’s were like that, the cold war
