I don't even support a 100% gun ban or anything, I just think this behavior is tasteless asf.
Edit: Get mad and tone police me all you want gunbros, I stand by this.

Not what I said, like, at all. But k, go off. 👍
To indulge in personal attacks, pick quarrels, vent personal spite or seek revenge instead of entering into an argument and struggling against incorrect views for the sake of unity or progress or getting the work done properly. This is a fifth type [of liberalism].
To hear incorrect views without rebutting them and even to hear counter-revolutionary remarks without reporting them, but instead to take them calmly as if nothing had happened. This is a sixth type [of liberalism].
Only Americans have this weird gun obsession, no where else in the entire planet is like this. No other country has anywhere near the level of US gun ownership.
Me failing to say this would be liberalism, because I believe Americans, even leftists, are incorrect on this, so I have to rebutt it.
I agree on all counts
:PIGPOOPBALLS:
:PIGPOOPBALLS:! At least we have something in common.
:PIGPOOPBALLS: unites us
:PIGPOOPBALLS: is the true meme of leftist unity.
youre the one coming in here with a month old account and posting sectarian nonsense, not me
Cuz saying pro-gun people should try to have a bare minimum of tact after a bunch of kids get murdered is splitting the party apparently. lol
saying you should blame fascists for doing fascist things like killing kids has nothing to do with tact, it is factual. spreading liberal propaganda that has insofar done nothing to address the issue despite 30+ years of its propagation is in fact sectarianism. stopping the spread of fascism is the only way to solve this issue.
My post is literally: "Hey guys, maybe you can wait a day before malding about hypothetical scenarios where your guns are taken away (Which likely will not happen) after 2 dozen kids were brutally gunned down."
Where exactly am I absolving fascists of violence?
im glad youve found a nook to feel better than everyone while being useless. i salute a liberal king for attacking leftists when you should be spending this time to attack fascists :rat-salute:
I ask you again: Where am I absolving fascists of violence? Sounds like you're just mad I don't agree with you.
no im just mad i havent seen your genitals
Here, just for you:
:pigpoop:
damn youre a cop?
I dunno, you a :LIB: ?
I mean I don't recall them initiating this discourse.

If you read the edit it'll be very clear what the post is about and it's got nothing to do with the misleading meme OP posted
Well, fair enough, I'll grant I'm wrong there.
No you were not wrong. This post is about how reaction capitalizes tragedies in order to seize more power, yet OP equivocates this with fascists who declare such shootings are completely fabricated in order to control firearms.

“Omg go off king :)” but seriously, your priority is criticizing gun-owning leftists in this situation? Telling.
Yes, how dare I suggest that a gut reaction to a school shooting being "MY GUNS!!!" is a bit tasteless.
Show me an actual leftist who has that response.

That post is implying that reactionary forces will inevitably use this tragedy as leverage — something they’ve done with all past US tragedies. Equivocating this to the fascists’ reactions to shootings (a la alex jones or tucker) is naive at best, subversive (to the left) at worst.

Exactly. Thank you for articulating that better than I could.
Oh noes, I'm a subversive! :ooooooooooooooh:
Congrats, your bait post got you all the attention today :)
Fr tho: I wasn't trying to "bait" a struggle sesh of any real significance. The news just made me mad, that meme (And the number of upvotes) rubbed me the wrong way, so I made this in response.
Kids being killed by a fascist is a super shitty situation, and far too common of an occurrence in this goddamned country. We all agree on these points.
The other meme's validity arises because the knee-jeek liberal response will be a push for anti-firearm legislation. Biden and others called for it within minutes.
Unfortunately, all successfully passed American gun control legislation has been racist in foundation or has put unequal burdens on the poor. We on the left must be vigilant to prevent these same reactions in ourselves lest we become complicit in further discriminatory efforts.
IDK... I'm sorry that shit is fucked.
I understand. I am angry today as well. I just suggest directing that anger to more appropriate outlets, such as the fascists and liberals (fascists) who are responsible for the carnage. Not that that’ll do anything.

Sorry for being a debate-bro-ish technicality dork but her "gut reaction" first response to the shooting itself was
