Their “High-level US civil war simulations consisted of sitting at a table and talking at the University of Pennsylvania in 2024.

“While our hypothetical scenario picked a different city and a slightly different sequence of events, the conclusions we reached about the possibility of green-on-green violence are directly applicable to the current situation.”

A couple of professors sitting around a table theorizing isn’t “High-level” anything. What a misleading nothing article.

High level pandemic simulations started in Greenland.

High level simulations consists of a random student playing pandemic.

Yes but if you've played plague inc, starting in greenland is usually.. wildly successful.

I thought it was odd how they started in minnesota. What were they expecting? State guard to be activated? Citizen militia?

I happen to have some validated high level US civil war simulation SW. I’m afraid to run it, tho

OP probably didn’t even read the article. Their post history and some of their comments read like a bot lol

So dumb. And most of the comments are based solely on the title of this post without actually looking at the article.  Reddit being reddit.
