I can't disagree. After the population of America is reduced to 166 million, what will society look like ?
Two scenarios come to mind.
1) The music keeps playing, people are content enough, and the government is able to establish total surveillance and control via CBDC. Once that is fully in place, they'll squeeze their dissidents out of existence like China. The end result is a mix of 1984, Clockwork Orange, and the Matrix - on steroids.
2) Either propaganda of supposed racial injustice or a collapse of financial/logistic systems sets off riots like the ones currently in France. This will originate in the welfare ghettos and eventually engulf all urban, socialist strongholds.
Our first reaction would be to fight against the attack on America's way of life. But not so fast. When BLM/Antifa operatives attacked American institutions and property during the Trump administration, the Democrats let this go on happily and even supported it to weaken the conservative, constitutional system they hate.
During the next riots brought to you by the globalist agenda, an anti-Constitutional government has to fight the hoodlums who are a major portion of their electorate while protecting the rest of their supporters who are predominantly urban, America-hating SJWs.
Why not just stay out of this mess and continue to live your rural life. Deal with those who try to invade your AO but otherwise let your enemies slit each other's throats without your involvement. Time is your friend in this. With every day of battle the number of people who want you gone from your country will diminish. Fire up the grill, get some beer or 'shine and watch the glow of the burning city on the horizon.
If you are not the type to sit idle and want to do something, you could put more stress on the warring parties by denying essentials (food, energy, water) to the urban battle fields. But this will happen naturally as no sane trucker is going to drive into a flaming chaos. And the ghetto rats will destroy other infrastructure they depend on because reliability, precision, and performance have been declared racist. (e.g. burning of bus depots in France).
The survivors of this scenario are going live in smaller communities of shared values (the opposite of "diversity") that have enough collective practical skills and resources to sustain a more primitive life. Your retirement portfolio on wall street will be gone but that does not matter as money will be worthless without anyone willing to sell the necessities you want to buy with it. The Democrat's cities do not generate anything that is of direct use for survival. The big paycheck from that fancy DEI-compliant job can only buy what some "deplorable" in "flyover country" produces by the sweat on his brows. When the socialist melting pot boils over, just shrug, like Atlas.
