You know, DOGE, fascist president and corporations dictating what people can do, institutions being ruined, laws being ignored. Is there any way out of that or is it over? Is the USA done?

We’re going to finish the existing Civil War. We vaguely, slowly stopped the south from having slaves, they replaced them with undocumented migrants. We let them put up statues, fly their old flags. Name military bases after their traitorous generals.
This has all been fucked up for over a century.
“What do you think is gonna happen in a civil war? You think the army, marines, and coast guard are all gonna be on the same side? What do you think happens in civil war, that half this nation is clammoring for? It’s police departments against military, military against government, people forming their own militias against the police force. It’s the randomness of killing.”
Well, things used to be geographically separated. Now it’s red versus blue in the blue is all in the cities. It’s not going to be armies, it’s going to be Vietnam. And it’s not going to be organized.
I wouldn’t call the last ~150 years a civil war at all. Civil wars are much worse than that.
But your observation that the split was never fully healed is fully correct.
