Documents obtained by The Intercept reveal that a Pentagon war game, called the 2018 Joint Land, Air and Sea Strategic Special Program, offered a scenario in which members of Generation Z, driven by malaise and discontent, launch a ‘Zbellion’ in America in the mid-2020s.

plus always saying everyone has equal rights and opportunities. It is often a total load of bullshit!!! And depending on how the US Supreme Court rules on the following, the hatred in the US will advance even more, with the US Supreme Court saying it's perfectly OK, go for it. And, if tRump never has to show his tax returns, what a load that will be.

But if they were to get motivated, it would bring a tear to my eye for all of the sacrifice so many in other generations have given already, only to be shot down half the time after elections.

It's tRump or America. The KGOP has already taken sides with their 26%.

None of the contingency plans for this scenario involves changing the way we do things now.

Pentagon Critters are afraid of their own shadows. Conservative/authoritarian/pendejos. If we continue showing no interest in helping to clean this depleted, befouled planet our generations pillaged, and befouled. Well?

they have plans about everything, going way out into the future. I often wonder...if the Pentagon, and all of the other alphabet agencies were a country, how big would it be?
