You assume a fascist uprising in particular, but it doesn't have to be. The militia movement of the 1990s was primarily anti-big government.

That being said they seem to go far harder against Democratic administrations since. Donald Trump saying "take the guns first..." caused some alarm among them. I think if insurgency erupts during Biden's administration they will be led by a few obscure figures who aren't initially household names.

I kind of hope Biden drops his whole anti-gun plan. Probably won't happen. More reason to worry.
