Can we all at least agree that guns for self defense purposes when there are no clear ideological threats (ie feds and blackshirts aren't hunting us) is bad.
You know what would be a lot more useful than individual stockpiles of guns? A collective stockpile or guns.
Relax, its all central planning. Its all working towards fighting climate change eventually. What you should really be worried about is the west, they are off the rails.
The United States absolutely needs gun control, gun control for cops, gun controls for whites, guns in the hands of the lgbt and Black populations, and out of the hands of second ammendment nutjobs.
They also have the most high speed rail in the world and only adopted the car to catch up technologically to the west. Is there not efforts to decrease that in China? The same cannot be said for the west.
Did you forget the plural part under workers? I'm going to have to take points off Marx for not being specific enough. Z
Who the fuck represents the workers besides us, besides labor unions? An atomized individual is not a worker, is not a class, they are a person, not a collective of anything. This whole stockpiling arms for the eventual war against a capitalists is purely a collective effort. If an individual is stockpiling guns they better plan on giving them to a central authority for the revolution or using then against reactionaries. Not for self defense. Self defense gun ownership is an American idea that needs to be purged from communist thought.
99% of gun owners should not own guns, we are the 1%.
All of this assumes there's a legitimate effort being made towards a revolution, we shouldn't be acquiring guns because of a what if, they should purely be for an offensive and preemptive strike, ie we need to do the opposite of what Stalin did and invade Germany before they even invade Poland. Self defense is not the point of gun ownership for communists, war is. And if we aren't willing to use them in that context then they are useless to us.
With all that being said most gunowners on this website have a valid reason to own theirs.
Guns bad. Just say it .
You know how America fought a war to strip people of the right to own slaves. Well we need a another one but with guns.
I think gun control in China works because the workers are in control of the state, the military is in serve of the party so there's no reason for individual workers to own guns. That does not mean there isn't guns in China. I'm just stating post revolutionary society should strive for gun control.
