Now just stop for a moment and think about this. It's not a science-fiction premise, it's actually something that happens quite often. Police get overwhelmed by natural disasters (Watch: American Blackout, and When The Levees broke), large-scale riots (The L.A. Riots of 1992), or the collapse of a government (Baghdad after the fall of Saddam). One time in Montreal Canada, the police actually went on strike.
What happened in these situations? It did not involve people forming groups of 5, putting on masks, and hunting people down.

Stop whitewashng history and committing erasure of the brave POC who are doing exactly that, and have created great works of performance art like this:
ON YOUR KNEES, WHITEY.

If the disorder continues for long enough, other organizations take the place of the government, or new organizations are created. Street gangs, warlords, manorialism....These are well-known things, not science-fiction concepts.

The term warlords is offensive, we prefer to be called Peacelords.
Trigger Warning: the text you have just read may have caused: flashbacks to historical oppression, normalization of whiteness, hegemonic hyper-masculinity (if I must say so myself), assumption of genders, species, and/or status as a living being, other problematic sins which are yet to be discovered and outlawed but I should still be (eventually) punished for.
