This is what you said: " I sometimes think this country is so far beyond corrupt that the only thing that will save it (perhaps) is a civil war. "

That is not the same as: "I do not apologize for rightly fearing what the lawless right may do to undermine our democracy."

If what you fear is that the lawless might engage in war, then say it. Don't say that the only thing that will save it is a civil war.
