Smug centrism is obviously the answer

Technically, yeah

I don’t read that comment as apathy, more an acknowledgement that fighting seems inevitable at this point. It’s probably too late for a peaceful resolution to the current crisis.

You make some valid points. Sorry for the snark of the previous comment, it’s increasingly difficult to tell if people are actually wanting to have a conversation or if they are just arguing in bad faith.

Honestly, I think we’re at the point where there isn’t an option that leads to a non-violent outcome. The admin has made it clear that they intend to act as genocidally as they can get away with in regards to both immigrants and trans people. Peaceful protest hasn’t accomplished anything significant, and democrats in Congress have done next to nothing. Either the right escalates their violence unchecked or they escalate and the left starts fighting. I don’t see a timeline where this admin doesn’t further escalate their brownshirt activity and erosion of basic civil rights, unfortunately.

Hope I’m wrong, but I’m staying armed just in case.

I don’t recall this conversation ever being about peaceful protests. My point is that we have enough guns, but they do nothing if they’re being held by people unwilling to use them. The right is supporting all of this shit, and it either hasn’t gotten bad enough or it hasn’t gotten personal enough for the left to become willing to resort to violence.

OP’s argument that “we need more guns” is stupid when we’re in a country with more guns than people.

Your argument is stupid because you just assumed that i was saying there should be no guns when i didn’t say anything close to that.

Here’s your award for dumbest take of the day. The solution to violence has literally never been “yeah, everyone should have a gun”.

I’m going to need you to compile these into a time lapse once the experiment has concluded

“juicypinkrose” 😂😂😂 I think you might rethink that handle

Not supporting the killing of Kirk, supporting the death of Kirk. It’s a small but important difference.

Yeah, pretty much

Lmao good luck idiots. Already tried it with alcohol, then with weed. How’d those work out? Porn isn’t even tangible.

Really didn’t oversell the username, huh?

Not true, it’s legal in Missouri.

The French made it work during occupation, I see no reason that disarmament should be anything more than an inconvenience if it gets to that point.

“Figure developed the Provenance blockchain to originate, verify and process home-equity loans, positioning itself at the intersection of housing finance and crypto. Cagney told Reuters that 10 out of the top 20 mortgage companies use Figure’s technology to originate loans.”

Hold the fucking phone. Not only are we barely regulating crypto, we’re using it for fucking HELOC loans now? I don’t see any way that this could possibly backfire.
