they can have guns back when they've proven themselves responsible enough for them

consider, for instance, that it won't be welfare queens coming to foreclose on their homes, raising rent and food prices, and brutally crush their entirely justified protests

but nah, the so called left eagerly slurps up literal neoliberal propaganda about "deplorables" being SO RACIST that it overrides any other possible motivation they could ever have. all about the guns and racism, and once we take away the guns and further impoverish the communities we don't like, while exclusively and gleefully benefiting only the wealthy and some token poor minorities--because nothing says "the racists are wrong" like doing exactly what they're accusing us of doing--and soon everything will be fixed.

i've yet to see a "deplorable" who isn't racist as hell

like it's good to warn about generalizing but an astonishing amount of people actually do have "racism and guns" as their only motivation

but I think that when push comes to shove and there is inevitably another depression and class conflict will once again come to the fore, it is likely that illusion will mostly shatter. the left's utter failure to counter this narrative with a populist one of its own has been its undoing since the collapse of the new deal coalition.

history has shown that the illusion will never, ever shatter on it's own, but it's also extremely fragile. the left still needs a populist message but if one sticks then ho boy

it’s more than just dead kids that are the result of this problem you fuckin moron

hmm maybe just maybe it’s the overwhelming culture of fear children must now go to school knowing that maybe today, or the next day, or the day after until they graduate the 12th grade they too can be gunned down and immediately forgotten

that's just the price they pay to keep the perpetually-terrified people of america from throwing a giant shitfit

(and then they throw a shitfit anyway)

Oh gently caress off does it matter if 1 or 10 or 100 people die

Answer: no it's an equally horrific reflection on our brokebrain society that makes people want to kill themselves and others

overall i think less people dying is a good thing

i'm not sure if you're aware but mass-murder is in fact bad

so is regular murder, but guns make mass murder much easier

*a purported leftist squints real hard at a militant political group getting visible traction in the public sphere, despite a notable absence of True Theory or wrinkles in their brains, because americans respect groups who don't just let people work them over, even when they're highly embarassing*


"It doesn't look like anything, to me."

why does having access to guns matter so much when you never even use them, even when there's literal genocide going on

but i guess thousands of children murdered in schools and sent off to rape camps are a small price to pay for the future revolution which is totally coming any day now, gotta keep that powder dry, literally
