Been thinking about Musk saying that a ‘civil war is inevitable’.
In a way, civil wars are perhaps the least inevitable of any conflict, as it being a civil war implies that there is a pre-existing polity, that is a structure for regulating disputes and enforcing order.
A civil war then often occurs only when that polity fails to resolve a dispute or does not enforce order.
And that outcome can be far from inevitable.
