I mean, it is historically how we solved all our other problems. Its not even particularly American, as much as I wish we could claim it. Lots of movements have been aided by gun violence.

    Look, okay, we need some sort of identity. This is how people become American gun nuts in the first place, is searching for an identity. If modern American identity is going to become "yeah we were getting fucked over by corporate leeches so I shot one of em in the face" - I mean, it's not my first choice, but I can think of worse things.

    Solidarity against oligarchs like that would be pretty massive. You have no idea the stone wall we would become. Try to move us, we are the mountain.

    Huh? I'm not sure what you're saying, sorry. I'd like to understand though. I'm just too knackered because I've been alone with the kids all day and speed cubing all night. 💩🧠💩 What do you mean, with more words please? 😂🙏😭

    What I mean is a unified proletariat is more powerful than any government body. That is the point of all the divisiveness you see today. To keep us separated and powerless.

    Well yeah. Fully agree.

    I often wonder why men and women in the millions, now and throughout history, would use their own legs to willingly walk to the front line and their deaths, for the purpose of inflicting death, because of the words of one or two men, instead of collectively just saying "yeah bro, not doing that".
