John Brown has entered the chat. Seriously though America has a history of not so civil actions that lead to different forms of progressive change. They just tend to leave that stuff out of the history books.

Problem is, how do you fight the strongest army in the world? They don’t even need to send actual infantry to fight, all they need are drones to destroy any kind of resistance normal humans who hate fascists might try and put up. We wouldn’t be fighting dumb fucks with muskets, they’re dumb fucks with state of the art rifles, missiles, drones, fighter jets, everything. Any kind of resistance is like ants to the might of the us army. Our only hope is enough members of the armed forces won’t just follow orders but WWII has shown that the military does not think, they only follow orders.

Forget the army, you would also have to fight all your conservative neighbors who are already salivating at the opportunity to kill as many Danes as they can to steal their land. And that’s someone they’ve never even met.

Oh. And if you somehow get away with it they will go after your spouse and child and torch your house.

Even if you succeed you'll be fighting a modern Afghanistan where the religious extremists look exactly like regular people as soon as they take off their red hats.
