I am not arguing in any way for disarmament. But the fact that’s all anyone seems to think I’m saying is kind of proving my point.
Vote for no Republicans. No excuses. No exceptions.

Nobody defended the Republicans,
I didn’t suggest they did.
How do you plan on resisting once you’ve been disarmed? Just vote out fascism? …Yeah that’s always worked.
You seem to be arguing against a point I haven’t made.
The only reason you would want to be disarmed, is so that you have an excuse for your passivity.
You seem to be arguing against a point I haven’t made.
But you are really committed to fearing that decades old bogeyman more than the wolf at your door it seems.
That doesn’t change my point whatsoever, even if I agreed with your characterization of the parties, which I do not.
Democrats will happily disarm everyone and hand the keys to the nation to the Republicans.
Even today when the Republicans are years-deep into proving that all the worst things we’ve ever suspected about them and their motives are true (and more) folks are still more worried D wants to come take their guns away.
R is literally dismantling our government and trampling the rights of an ever-growing segment of our population, on a speed run to authoritarianism, but folks are still yelling about that tired bogeyman instead of using the 2A as they have always claimed they can’t wait to do. (Edited to add: And I’m not even suggesting anything super dramatic. A few folks open carrying would probably be enough. You know, like all the magas that camped outside of polling places with their AR for purposes that were 100% not voter intimidation.)
You will scream about how Dems want your guns all the way up until the brownshirts show up to take them. The fuck is wrong with some of you?
I think it represents a timely reminder that we now know those who scream the loudest about the 2A, and how we can’t do a damn thing about gun violence because it would erode their freedoms, have no interest in using it the way they’ve always proclaimed they must, as long as the right people are being hurt.
And I’m not actually anti-2A so much as I am anti-a-particular-sort-of-gun-enthusiast.
All good, I get it now!
