A thought regarding the "coming civil war" from an ex-soldier:

If the anti-mask whiners can’t deal with a piece of cloth over their faces for a few hours a day, there’s no way they will be able to endure the hardships that are a daily part of real warfare.

Hell, take away their meth and their CMT, and they’ll fold like a cheap card table.

Then go home and watch TV and drink beer. I wonder what they’ll think when delivery trucks stop rolling and utilities fail. Not to mention people shooting back.

They were told by their dear leaders to object to the mask, so they found stupid reasons to object to it.

Had Donnie and foxnews chosen instead to make up some story about Islamic bio terrorists trying to infect us, they not only would have been triple masking, but they'd also threaten to shoot anyone who didn't.

But yeah, they have no idea what civil war means. It's not their reenactment fantasy.

.... I've been trying to figure out how we are going to tell one side from the other. I for one, refuse to put a Democrat sign on my back, but this thread has given me an idea on solving the dilemma. Instead of the shirts against the skins , we can call it The Masks Against The Chins.
