Many people on the left do have guns, but they also have other things to go along with guns: self-control and a sense of decency.

I'd add on that most on the left have also studied enough to know that people love martyrs and that very few deaths of public figures would substantially change our society.

I'd describe myself as a raging leftist, and I can count on one hand the people whose assassination I think would result in beneficial change for our society even with any blowback of support and counter assassinations. MTG has never been close to that level.

Dismantling systems of oppression and changing the way people think is far more effective.

The issue with this thinking is that you assume that once those in power will easily let it go. We are in a time right now where kids are dumber than ever and social media controls their lives. Its how Andrew taint got so big. Gotta get rid of the fascist first before you can change the education system to fix what they have broken, otherwise they'll do it all over again.

They know the price of guns.

The right has been terrorizing this country with impunity for over 100years

[–] joelfromaus@aussie.zone 104 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

But many people kept saying BoTh sIDeS around a certain persons death.

Yeah, fuck those people. And fuck Charlie Kirk.

From the Mossad

Right through his neck hole!

There's some things that both sides can generally agree on. Brian Thomson, for example. Seems the only people who had a problem with his death had >$10 million stock portfolios.

You wrestle with pigs you’re going to get shit on ya. Sorry babe.

At a glance I read, Kamala, finds a way. And that gave me a chuckle.

I wanted a 3rd party, just not like this.

[–] AngularViscosity@piefed.social 8 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

You get an alt alt right party. A finger on the money's paw curls.

You might be tempted to change it cause of the typo, but this is more apt

It's beyond politics... It's a legal modern mafia. Wake up. There is no democracy.

there really isn't... Why are people denying that truth so hard...? It's like it's out of fear of reality. Overcome that fear so you build modern life in honest reality because if your reality is not honest you are only building a faulty foundation.

Someone got smacked by the FAFO principle.

Not hard enough, I'd say. A judge's house was burnt down recently. They've gone easy on her.

And thats ultimately why they keep coming out on top. You're not using enough violence.
