Well they don’t mean jack shit, a gun is still an effective self defense tool for an individual against targeted violence and hate crimes. But they certainly mean a lot more as part of an armed, trained, and organized bloc.

But if you don’t have access to an already-existing org and you feel potentially at risk from non-government fascists, getting armed and trained as an individual is a step in the right direction. Ideally alongside cultivating support and activist networks.

the ebb and flow of tropes gaining and losing authenticity is kinda fascinating tbh

like, something like this works to communicate a certain idea or aesthetic, effectively enough that people start to emulate it, until at some point it becomes cliche

great post

i’m regularly shocked at the supposed unwillingness of self-described leftists to read. your comment is a 2-3 minute read at average reading speed.

rip to a real one

that and class aspiration / false consciousness causes a meaningful segment of working people to lag behind their material interests. feels like people are starting to catch on though, slowly.

typical petty bourgeois cracker gun enthusiast:

$4,000+ on guns

$4,000+ on optics, accessories, marginally better upgrades, and bling

$2,000+ on ammo

~3 hours at the range mag dumping every once in a while

spent extra for a don’t tread on me lower and thin blue line stickers

0 emergency medical gear or training

0 community networking or mutual aid

terrified of property getting stolen or trespassed on or looked at

:illuminati:

surprised that’s not just a civil matter tbh
