Well, we can’t effectively ban guns. At least not in our foreseeable political future. And the people who are already armed are overwhelmingly voting to elect a fascist who likes to incite violence among minority groups… It’s kinda easy to see why people would want to arm themselves.
If you look at the one side of the political spectrum that seems to be usurping power over here, they fucking LOVE guns. It wouldnt surprise me that if they got violent, it would be armed heavily with firearms. This is the exact response i would expect from would be victims of aforementioned gun violence. in the words of my constituion and bible humping american brethren, we shall NOT BE VICTIM TO A TYRANNICAL STATE!
I mean rapists, transphobes, bigots, and neo Nazis all now feel carte blanche freedom to do whatever they please in this country. There will absolutely be more crimes against women, LGBTQ+, minorities, and liberals. Not arming yourself against these animals is the insane thing.
It’s me, another trans who is actively applying to move out of the US. If I were staying here I’d be arming myself too even though I hate everything about guns. I’ve been voting, protesting, community aid, talking with people I know, building relations with my neighbors, it’s all backsliding anyway. Not a lot of options left for me
No, they’re looking moving out of the country. They already live in a liberal state. They’re looking to rent out their current home and just hold out in another country for 4 years and see how it works out. One is of Jewish ancestry and knows their history. Trump promised to send troops into sanctuary cities and they don’t want that to be the one honest thing he’s said.
1 a republican in office l so we can’t count on any law changing for the better.
2 even if we did reform gun laws the these people won’t give them up. A lot of them won’t even save their own children from disease
People radicalized to insane culture war bullshit and irrational solipsistic oblivion cults can’t really be negotiated with.
Institutions will never fix anything.
Intense atomization and alienation keep us from creating society with one another. There’s no time to do anything complicated; most of us work too much. You just get home and youre exhausted.

You realize that it sounds like you’re talking referring to trans people and allies in this comment right? Just to be clear, which group are you referring to?
Naw. ‘Oblivion cults’ is very clearly referencing doomsday ‘christians’, the Evangelical sort that are common in America. They want the world to end, they think they’ll be raptured into heaven.
They’re also idiots, if the rapture happens, they’re not coming; they are the equivalent of the Pharisees that Jesus whipped, and Revelation specifically mentions them, and that they are fools
Right Wingers love to coop language. I’ve heard some that language used in GameGate circles. They love referring to the inclusion of minorities in games with hyperbola.
Why are Americans answers to everything guns? So much paranoia and mental health issues in this country it’s insane.

What would you suggest? I have three trans friends who are making plans to move, at least for a few years, but not everyone can do that.

They are very welcome to come here to Washington! Just don’t live too far from the cities or east of the Cascades.

Ah. Well, my best wishes to them.
Look to what other countries do maybe, they don’t answer every single problem with paranoia and guns.
Ok, how exactly do you think we can implement those changes in a Trump regime?

So; gun.

Sorry, how are trans people solipsistic? Or a cult?
Edit: and how many fascists know the word ‘solipsism’?
My issue with your comment was that it was being vague. You were using the same language that Right Wingers use to describe trans issues.
Every allegation a fascist makes is a confession. I was not being vague.
‘oblivion cults’ makes it clear they’re talking about right-wingers
No, Right Wingers use that exact language as well. What they posted sounds a lot like vague posting to me.

A quick peek at dude’s posting history makes it pretty clear they’re a leftist, so.
I don’t have time to inspect every person’s comment history.
