Democrats don't hate firearms. They're ambivalent or even slightly favorable to firearms. They hate men, especially white men.
Gather up some actual American leftists, interrupt their busy day of adding stripes to the rainbow flag, and ask them the following questions and note their answers:
What do you think of Andrew Tate?
Why do you think so many young white men are drawn to Andrew Tate?
What messaging do you have for young white men?
Why should young white men be on board with your cause?
What does your cause have to offer young white men?
The answers I would expect from them/have heard from them:
He's a degenerate scumbag who should be in prison.
Because all white men are just as evil as he is.
Go die in a war.
They shouldn't; the left isn't for them.
Nothing; white men already have everything and deserve nothing.
To the left, white men are boogeymen. "Historical oppressors." Present-day Republicans. The patriarchy. And they apply this hatred to ALL white males including the unborn. "I'd have an abortion if I found out the fetus was male."
The actual problems that cause mass shooters are childhood trauma, isolation, lack of social safety nets. The right hates social safety nets because the yacht owning class has told them to for so long. The left loves social safety nets...except for white men.
Addressing the needs of white men, giving them actual help and care, devoting resources to them to allow them to lead healthy productive lives, overcome and escape trauma...unthinkable in either party. So the right says "that's what you get for sending your kids to school instead of church" and the left says "What about making the magazine release harder to push?"
I'm a single, white, male firearm owner. I don't feel hated by the left at all.
Recognizing that white men have been privileged and addressing the institutional issues that have given white men an unfair leg up for centuries isn't an assault on white men.
Yikes dude get off Rumble and turn off Tucker Carlson. I'm a white man on the left ambivalent to guns but want more restrictions. And your whole post is all fantasy to feed a victim complex, it's seriously embarrassing.
Are you a Tate fan since you brought him up multiple times? Dude is a piece of filth scumbag.
