    They want a civil war, or rather a cultural war between civilians, to detract from a class war. They want the civilians to be fighting among themselves (i.e. left vs right), rather than uniting against ruthless billionaires and grifters in the government. Having a civil war would also make some of their false claims become “true”, e.g. that cities are “war zones” and that they “need” to utilize the Insurrection Act and put the military everywhere without any remaining legal obstructions. I mean they still do it partially already, which is bad enough, but when a civil war would actually exist (like they claim), then they could also claim that what they were lying about the whole time is actually “true” (just not at all the way they said it to be, but the end result would be kind of the same: war zones inside cities) and they’d be legally allowed to be even more oppressive than they are already. It would increase their power overall. It would lead to a guaranteed dictatorship. Dictators love using “emergencies” to grab full, unrestricted power. So it’s best to never aid them while they try to construct an emergency where there is none. That exposes their lies better.
