I mean…given how badly red districts will get absolutely fucked over by the Big Bloated Bill…there may be some(lottery tier) hope for some change?

I mean…when we say guns, are we saying they own 120 AR-15s? Or are we realistically saying that certain gun owners like collecting even rather useless guns? Like most gun owner wishlist are having an AR, AK, 1911, Glock, a revolver of some kind, SKS, Mosin, PS-90, etc. Once you got one gun, it’s like “yeah I mean I can have fun with just one gun, but it’s funner to larp as a Soviet soldier with an AK, and also 1911s are objectively beautiful guns, and also yeah 1911 is a pistol, but a Beretta 92 FS would be cool because it looks cool and is in a bunch of movies, and you know, even though I have 2 pistols, a Glock would be nice because it’s practical and utilitarian and those other 2 pistols are just for fun, and also i can makr glock perfection memes, and now i want a civilian version of an MP5 because that shit looks sick in the movies I see it in, and also I’m a fan of Stargate, so fuck it I’m going to get a civilian version of a p90 too, and also you know what else would be cool? A revolver, maybe two of them, one for my detective larp and one for my cowboy larp. And shit, I’m interested in a shot gun too, for self defense of course, so let’s get a Mossberg! But damn the KSG bull pup shotgun looks so sci fi and cool, so I’m gonna get that too, and also wow some double barrel wooden stock shotguns look beautiful! I want two, one that I can afford to rough it up a bit with for hunting, and one really beautiful one, because why not!”

Like a few of the guns above are practical for combat and or revolution or what not because of their ease of fixing, customizability, etc. But a lot of them are redundant and bought because of some cursory historical interest/larp/coolness and alot are just for fun.

Part of it is trying to keep up morale. If you feel so beaten down that you won’t do anything, that’s just as bad. Not everyone can get motivated from the bleakness of a situation or from difficult and almost impossible struggle. For those of us who are, it feels like finally we’re fighting some actual great evil, of whose evilness justifies ANY means of defeating it. It feels exciting for us, I’m guessing it almost like a form of that bloodlust that those who get captured by the enamoring power of war feel when their country declares it upon another country which they view as evil.

People should realize a lot of the EXTREMELY LARGE 1-3 day protests, should really just be a means of networking and actually creating more dedicated hardened resistance groups.

People need to form Left Wing Militias NOW. The foundations of a armed fascist resistance movement/insurgency can’t be put off till the last minute. Armed protection squads for Zohran would probably be good too.

Was this the child who missed his chemo treatments and was showing remission symptoms?

An with the new basically enabling act having recently passed…this brings on a whole new meaning.

IS IT MAN! I BE SEEING THE STATE OF OUR NATION TYPE SHIT, AND THIS SHIT AINT GOING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION DAWG! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

Breathes in, breathes out

Now that that’s out of the way, I think it still is too. Just… because our president is saying this shit, normalization is bound to happen.

Wasn’t it considered, socially, to be Neo-Nazi shit to say that white genocide was happening in South Africa? Like I distinctly remember a while back, that if you said this shit, you would get weird looks at the very least, and people would question as to whether you were a fucking Nazi.

If they start mandating an entire class section to that shit, I mean fuck it, why not just have people skip that class session. Go out for boba and drinks on that day kek.

I swear, some people are such a stickler for the rules. UM TECHNICSHUALLY A FINGER TAP COULDVE BEEN ASSAULT. Missing that the point is basically to call the cops a bunch of pussies for even thinking of pressing charges against an old woman, who wouldn’t have been able to actually do any damage to them. Like bro, are you gonna press charges against a baby for kicking you in the hands while you’re changing their diapers? No, you’re not.

I mean…if it prevents a fascist takeover…

A bit of speculation on my part, but I’ve been hearing it was actually the Japanese selling off US bonds that eventually made the Trump admin panic and stop the tariffs. I guess the power of God and Anime saved us from this bullshit for the most part. Perhaps this was one of the things discussed between China, Japan, and Korea?

Hmmm perhaps the Latino vote could play a big role in her support, potentially tipping it in her favor if she did run for the presidency. Still I get it, it’s a long shot.

I wonder if Lemmy could band together to create a playbook? A “Project Progressive Liberty” playbook if you will…

I wonder if people should start organizing into clandestine cell networks?

I do not know whether it is to yourself or Mr. Adams I am to give my thanks for the copy of the new constitution. I beg leave through you to place them where due. It will be yet three weeks before I shall receive them from America. There are very good articles in it: and very bad. I do not know which preponderate. What we have lately read in the history of Holland, in the chapter on the Stadtholder, would have sufficed to set me against a Chief magistrate eligible for a long duration, if I had ever been disposed towards one: and what we have always read of the elections of Polish kings should have forever excluded the idea of one continuable for life. Wonderful is the effect of impudent and persevering lying. The British ministry have so long hired their gazetteers to repeat and model into every form lies about our being in anarchy, that the world has at length believed them, the English nation has believed them, the ministers themselves have come to believe them, and what is more wonderful, we have believed them ourselves. Yet where does this anarchy exist? Where did it ever exist, except in the single instance of Massachusets? And can history produce an instance of a rebellion so honourably conducted? I say nothing of it’s motives. They were founded in ignorance, not wickedness. God forbid we should ever be 20. years without such a rebellion. The people can not be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. We have had 13. states independant 11. years. There has been one rebellion. That comes to one rebellion in a century and a half for each state. What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them.What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure.

Our Convention has been too much impressed by the insurrection of Massachusets: and in the spur of the moment they are setting up a kite to keep the hen yard in order. I hope in god this article will be rectified before the new constitution is accepted.

-Thomas Jefferson

They’re racists simple as that. I’m guessing this shit also has to do with Trump’s fucking asinine and quite frankly, useless executive order declaring English to be the official language of the US as well.

Sometimes I wonder if this war is our generation’s version of the Spanish Civil War? How many influential people will we see pop out of this conflict?

Fuck giving up or defeatism though. Lifetime Opposition just because of spite is the way for me.
