well fuck me for prioritizing the genocides happening in my own country over the genocides happening on the other side of the planet.

edit: responded to the wrong comment, but the one I meant to respond to was also by you so I’m leaving it.

hold on, I have something for this

FOUND IT

displayport is the modern successor to vga.

both sides are bad. One is just infinitely worse.

People refusing to vote for the lesser of two evils is what got us the worse evil!

The problem is that the 1/3 of americans who are actually opposed to this country being a fascist dictatorship are disorganized and scattered. You’re right, one or two or three guys with guns won’t accomplish much. Others in this thread have commented “where’s your militia?” or something like that, and it’s about time we make one.

I cannot blame you for wanting to keep your head down and waiting for all this to blow over. If I’m super lucky, maybe I can do that too. I’m rather pessimistic about the future though. To be honest, I talk a big game but I’m not doing shit until/unless I know I can make a difference.

It is my opinion that even if I had a perfect plan and was able to describe it perfectly, it wouldn’t work because it requires people to work together, and to make sacrifices for others. So things will slowly continue to get worse until I get put in a work camp over not being able to keep my mouth shut.

To loop this back to the original point, no having guns is not the solution. However, it is a critical part of the larger and more nuanced solution.

it was in the news when it happened

and also discussed a lot here

If I’m not willing to stick my neck out to help you when they come to take you away, who the hell will be left to do the same for me when it’s my turn?

My gun doesn’t protect me. My gun protects you. Your gun protects me.

eh, it was the best I got

Lots of people got insurance claims approved, enabling them to get life saving care that otherwise would have been denied. It’s just a shame that it was a one-off and not a recurring thing.

I do that when I’m stylizing my notes. Helps make things easier to visually distinguish sections and such.

Although I must admit that I saw an ai do it first and decided it was a good idea.

plenty of vapes have nicotine.

Arguing that the populace shouldn’t have guns, and pointing to the usa as an example, is arguing that our fascist government should have a monopoly on violence. Every successful “gun control” law has been put in place in response to persecuted minorities and activist groups having guns. For a famous example, see the Black Panthers.

Peaceful protests are impotent unless backed by a genuine threat of violence. See how little the recent “No Kings” protests have accomplished vs the death of that one health insurance ceo.

Now, I am in favor of fewer guns, but the order of operations is important. Let’s start with disarming the police and abolishing ice. So long as my friends/family/neighbors/whatevers are being abducted by masked thugs in broad daylight, it is my right and my duty to defend with lethal force.

If this was a plot point in a book or movie, it would be criticuzed for being stupid and unrealistic, and yet here we are.

hey guys, thrift stores are a thing, and a great way to get quality clothing for cheap.

There’s like two days in the spring and another two in the fall when it’s fuckin nice.

All the rest of the year sucks. The fact that it sucks for different reasons doesn’t mean it doesn’t suck.

The safety and security of knowing someone loves you and will protect you and take care of you and so forth. Easy to see the appeal.
