• Yup… dude also thinks abortion providers should be sentenced to hard labor. Republicans are going completely mask off. If they win big in the midterm election America is quite literally fucked.

    • If one day a single democrat is trying to storm the capitol, he will get shot 23 times and be called a terrorist. All his family will be persecuted by crazy hats. You accepted their crazy extremist behavior and the know it. These guys just hijacked democracy to forcepass one of their guy despite an internal vote. I will tell you from an outside perspective, you guys are going right into fascism next time Trump is elected. He won’t leave twice. You’re going to be the baddies.

  • Republicans love de facto gun control. They’ll have the cops kill every armed PoC no matter how lawfully they were armed, and then acquit the killer cops.

    We’re long past soap box and poll box, the fascists are using the jury box, and you’d have us give those same fascists exclusive rights to the ammo box.

    Disarming the public can only be beneficial in a functioning democracy. The people to whom you’d give exclusive access are the same people who are currently murdering us.

  • Mfw the liberals who acknowledge that the Republicans are fascists want only the fascists to have guns (if you think gun control will be enforced by fascist cops to disarm their fascist buddies you’ve got another thing coming)

    Mfw liberals don’t acknowledge that mass shootings are caused by white supremacy, misogyny, and abuse culture in addition to guns because they don’t want to or are incapable of addressing white supremacy, misogyny, and abuse culture, but they are capable of pushing gun control (that doesn’t prevent mass shootings (see my first point) but does further criminalize poc, poor people, queer people, and women owning guns)

    Mfw liberals have never heard of the mulford act and understood its political implications

    Mfw liberals haven’t read any anti-colonial history or civil rights history, even basic stuff like “this nonviolent stuff will get you killed” which shows how an armed movement has been necessary for both violent and nonviolent liberatory movements

    The best cure to liberalism is picking up a book on the history of liberation movements that isnt full of whitewashed US history class bullshit.

      • Do you honestly want Republicans to pass gun control? What do you think a republican gun control bill would look like?

        Do you think Republicans are capable of addressing mass shootings? They are literally caused by things that benefit Republicans and democrats

        • I know Republicans are incapable of doing anything, that’s why I pinch my nose and vote blue, while trying to build class conciousness on the ground. The Prolitariat cant flourish if the party in power are actively genociding trans folks and minorities. The Republicans have gone so mask off, its impossible to not vote for the lesser of the 2 evils and have a clean concious. At least for myself anyway.

          • The Prolitariat cant flourish if the party in power are actively genociding trans folks and minorities.

            Democrats are also actively genociding minorities, the concentration camps and wars are bipartisan.

            I’ve said nothing in my previous comments about voting. For me I do not see it as significant enough of a political act to bother discussing.

    I’ve heard it said that guns have more rights than women. That’s some bullshit how does anyone justify that? Do guns use pronouns now too, does a gun need protection?
