    Conservatives in comment sections everywhere: “pssh he’s just kidding, god you libs are so sensitive!”

    Pretty sure those cowardly fucks said if they kept their guns they would step in against tyranny.

      “It’s nice that he always says the truth”

      “He’s only joking, he doesn’t actually mean that”

      It’s not tyranny to them if they’re in the Kool Klub.

        Guns in the US have always been a fetish, and the whole “anti-tyranny” discourse is just the excuse needed to justify ignoring gun deaths to feed that fetish.

        Buy a gun, stroke it, buy accessories, buy a case, talk about gun safety using military terminology as if you’re some tactician in a war instead of a loser coming back home from McDonald’s, go to a shooting range to finally use the thing, point it at an innocent after a driving dispute. Its a fetish.

        You’re not going to stop tyranny with your handgun if your army spends a trillion dollars and could turn your city into a flat landscape in mere moments.

          Tell that to Ho Chi Mihn. Tell that to Fidel Castro. Tell that to the people of Iraq. Tell that to the people of Afghanistan. Tell that to the Paiwan. Tell that to the people of Korea.(who are still at war with their neighbors to the north because of the US.) Tell that to North Korea. Tell that to British Canadian Citizens who burnt your White House down. Tell that to Red Cloud.

          I could do another country if you would like but the idea is that in war the most powerful side doesnt always win the conflict.

          Have a good day fighting fascism.

            Sorry, how is that list of countries that are not the US and do not have the US Army are related to my comment about how US citizens carrying guns is irrelevant against their own military?
