No, at some point there is a cutoff, and that cutoff is before talking about the civil war. If you want to talk about if a civil war will happen, open a thread for it. Don't distort every thread into Civil War thread N + 1.
We're getting off topic here. Not every thread is a complain about the state of the US thread. This is a thread about the time magazine article, not about some nebulous future civil war, or the previous civil war, or any civil war.
