Yet all americans are just rolling over
That's the point of the big lie and 'never let them cool down'' fascist tactics.
I'm ready to follow your lead!
You'd think there's enough global support that something might kick off elsewhere in the world. But those not having to deal directly with the nonsense going on in the US have the benefit of being able to sit back and spout off.
Sorry we're not revolting fast enough. Kind of hard to do when things are generally equally split in the country, and the majority of folks need to keep going to work to keep food on the table.
Probably all as designed, but we're all too damned tired and those doing things we don't like know it.
For real. People don't understand how powerful targeted propaganda is. A lot of the most radical and armed in the US were intentionally targeted so now all of their media, friends, friends media are all saying the same thing and telling them everything else is a lie.
This story for example is, on the right, just the Democrats and deep state trying to Elon now that he is exposing REAL corruption.
We are arguing different facts, arguably because so much of media is just "trusted sources" instead of anything verifiable anymore
I was just expecting more from the country that spouts off all the time about their guns and "try and take my freedoms away"
Where are all the 2a folks now?
Not typing their plans on the clearnet.
Lets be honest, most of the people who get stiff when looking at guns support this. They were always going to bend over for authoritarians because if authoritarians took over the government they were going to be right wing.
Supporting this. They're the reason this admin is anti-DEI, anti-immigrant, and anti-culture. They're willing to accept losing all of their freedoms as long as they get their Two Minutes Hate
To be fair, the ones supporting this don’t think they are losing freedoms. They’re mostly in the groups unaffected by these changes, so it’s a bet positive in their eyes.
They are the ones in fucking power!
Those dumbfucks are a vocal minority. We tend to forget that the internet is not necessarily representative of a population. So pretty much every "extreme" really ought to be taken with a grain of salt.
Well I hope those "dumbfucks" dont have every gun out there or else...
I can say for certain that they dont. At least not all of the firearms. And "or else"? Really? Are you intending that to read as a threat, or merely a warning about said dumbfucks?
Because that sort of "threat" is a nice indicator of the type of person that shouldn't have access to firearms.
No, not a threat at all. I would just think it would be worrisome if they did have them all
They thought they were free.
