DMR, or any kind of digital traffic or encryption, is basically so the bad guys can't hear and act on your traffic in real time. That's it. It's harder for them to get actionable, immediate intelligence from what you're saying. Even if they can't break encryption, they can still
Common talk groups on DMR really give away the association between multiple frequencies. About 10 mhz section of band in my area had lots of DMR traffic, it wasn’t until I looked at all the various talk groups that I found out that it’s one company using multiple frequencies.

Two things can be true at once. Some people can be absolute trash with money wasting it on expensive crap and frivolities when they should be saving. The market (job and housing) is extremely screwed up with inflated prices due to immigration, intra-USA movement,

Three bedrooms seems expensive and extravagant to me. What would I do with 3 extra rooms plus a giant kitchen/living/dining room?
@DineshDSouza a 900 square/ft house is still well over $300,000 in my neck of the woods, go lie somewhere else.

@BuckBriar @DonShift3 @ASaltWeapons 200 years of voting worked. So why the difference the past few decades? It's not voting that's the problem - it's voters. People who are too lazy to engage in the easy part sure won't engage in the hard part. They could have already been more involved, but aren't.

IT'S NOT MY GD FAULT THAT THE HOUSE PRICE FOR MY 3 BED 1.5 BATH HOUSE IS 8x YOUR INCOME. WHY SHOULD I ACCEPT LESS THAN WHAT MR. PATEL OR BLACKROCK WILL GIVE ME? IT'S THOSE DAMN LATTES AND AVOCADO TOAST. IF INDIANS OR ILLEGAL MEXICANS WILL LIVE 27 TO A HOUSE AND SAVE MONEY, GOOD

And what happened to Rhodesia? It's now Zimbabwe, a shithole. All those Rhodies who thought they were going to "slot floppies" their way to winning the war were wrong. Their country turned into a zombie and almost all fled. Sure, it was a hell of a ride while it lasted but hope

The point is, the overwhelming majority is mentally, relationally, physically, and logistically unprepared for civil war. Civil war means the average people are often caught in the middle. Look at Rhodesia; farmers were targeted by the nationalist (black) terrorists. Average

If you want a civil war to "fix everything": What is your realistic plan, even a small part, to help fix the political situation? Do you plan to be a warlord or help support local politicians? What is your plan to help secure and protect critical local infrastructure, even if

@DonShift3 Nailed it. Some of the biggest trash talkers I know are too lazy to the basics...pay their bills, vote, or simply go to work...but will quickly entertain a Mad Max fantasy.
