We could see copycat versions of Jan. 6th happening in various red states. More right-wing accelerationism for sure. Will that include violence? I mean, we’ve already seen them commit it before. Things are going to get much worse. The worst part is, even if the Republican Party “stops” MAGA, we are still being lead by the Party that allowed MAGA to take power in the first place. They will capitalize on the right-wing violence to push more police and military presence anyway which will largely be used against leftists.

I feel every thing you said is absolutely correct apart from the "largely used against leftists." There will be no face left uneaten by leopards. Once the minority has control they will stomp EVERYONE to keep power and live luxurious lives.

What I meant was that any right-wing or state violence will be attributed to leftists as a scapegoat. It will allow them to stomp on everyone while displacing the blame onto a convenient target.
