Comment on Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose

I’m a left-leaning gun owner, and I don’t buy that. “We’re ready and organized…but we’re a super secret dark brotherhood so we can’t show you!” does not inspire confidence.

For every one of us there are probably 6-12 MAGA zealots by my estimation (vibes-based, admittedly).

Don’t be ridiculous. There is no “dark brotherhood”. Leftist gun clubs are all over, but besides social media and the occasional interview, they just don’t advertise. Nobody needs to, because interested people will find you anyway. That’s different from right-wing groups, who attract members by being as edgy and loud as possible in order to show how alpha they are.

  The problem is that I can’t fucking find any near me, so what the fuck can I do?

    i dont have Facebook nor any social media accounts besides Lemmy.
    
    And you’re complaining about not being able to find stuff? Maybe meet the people where they are instead of hoping the people will come to you?

    I go to every local gun range event and even gun ranges far as fuck away from me and never see any Lefties nor see anything advetised as left-friendly. So your advice is trash.

    They may be all over, but they aren’t everywhere. But I don’t see that as a problem, I see it as an opportunity. Maybe this is your indicator that it’s time to step up and be a leader, and start your own local club. Contact the leaders of whatever club is closest to you, I bet they can give you some pointers. Ask for advice, say you want to fix the lack of options in your area.
    
    I’m willing to bet there’s people in your area that would be interested.

There are magazines that hold 60+ rounds.

  That the opps can obtain just as easily.
  
  I’m no Delta operator, but I think it’s generally a bad thing to be outnumbered in a gun fight. Especially if you’re by your lonesome, just means you’ll get outmaneuvered and destroyed if you can’t escape quickly.
