Read this; it's short. I don't know the author, have read nothing else but the "about" section, but I have this crappy unease that there is more truth to it than is comfortable. Hopefully I'm wrong.

A little (tiny) more reading and I don't know if I'd really dig the guy, or his views on civilization; maybe se, maybe no. Dunno. Not much into prepping, arming up and trying to roll my own "basic"; I hope and still think we can avoid catastrophy, as a country. His LAR buddy that's in the hiring process for the Portland PD; he'd been smarter to have stayed home in front of the tube (diff article). Like I said, dunno....but the description of collapse....well, I don't think we're there but it sure seems that we're flirting with it, or a lot closer to flirting with it than is healthy.
It's a weird perspective.
Edit - Yeah, prob wouldn't be my bestie and they shoulda stayed the F home. Better to ask why the BLM protests are occurring and try to remedy the root causes than be a tough guy and hang with the Proud Boy types. And at this point I see him and his buddies, or at least folks who seem to be on that side of the street, to be part of the problem that's causing whatever you want to call what we're going through.
So, maybe this post was a pointless exercise or ill considered? Maybe shoulda deleted the post. Still, weird and maybe enlightening in a perverse way? Maybe useful in terms of seeing what the hell the white nationalist authoritarian types are doing? Shoulda checked the larger context out before posting but I'll leave my premature foray into this arena here for the reason just mentioned. Sorry about that.
I do know this: Root causes of social unrest; address those. That's what all of us need to be doing; not loading ammo and getting into situations where we might need to use it.
