I read a lot of "barking at the moon" here. Nobody is going to replicate the American Revolution. In part, because of geography and technology. Back then, we were a very distant, difficult to reach, colony. All of the logistics from the British standpoint were aligned against them. Not the case today.
First, the world is relatively flat today. You can get anywhere rather quickly.
Then there is the technological advantage. The government (military) has it. The people don't. It is overwhelming.
If someone acted on these "ideas" ... they would be overwhelmed by law enforcement from many, many government agencies. Much less the military whose role includes protected this country from attacks from within.
History is written by the victors, who call their role as protectors and call the losers anarchists, terrorists, extremists, etc.
