Have you been living under a rock for the last 10 years? Antifascist groups in the US have been predominantly armed for a long fucking time. Are you so ignorant blindingly ignorant that you missed that, are you just trying to be deceptive, or are you just so far up your own ass that you can’t imagine people outside your cult would be able to defend themselves?

Always hilarious when the anti-2a groups post anything revolving around using firearms.
You’re so close to understanding the 2nd amendment…we welcome you.

Lol not to the level that most magats are, stop fooling yourself the antifa groups are made up of 99% wanting to ban firearms. I’m part of that 1% and know others that are as well. We literally get chastised for speaking about arming others. You’re fooling yourself if you think it’s different.

This has not at all been my experience. Most antifa groups are primarily anarchist or communist, which have never opposed arming people. Unless shit has been flooded by liberals in the last couple of years, I have no idea where this is coming from.

The number of us who matched during the BLM movements armed where a lot less than those who were on the anti-blm side…and it was fucked up because the side we were there to protest with felt we were in the wrong. This is really well documented from all the footage online. The number of armed anti-blm vs the BLM groups were completely lopsided.

Socialist rifle association exists. Only neolibs believe they don’t need weapons to protect against possible tyranny.

2Aliberals, the SRA, pink pistols, Operation blazing sword, NAAGA, JPFO, tons of non-republican groups out there for gun rights. You’re absolutely right, it’s people who have never had to deal with the reality that other people might exist in a harmful way to them. Most I’ve noticed live in safe neighborhoods and think the police will be there to protect them.

What?
Have you ever considered that you are crafting a subjective world around you that doesn’t exist? Nothing about this post has anything to do with firearms or the United States.
It’s a commentary on the need to respond to those who use force to dominate others, with force. The firearm, bat, or otherwise is a metaphor representing appropriate uses of violence.
Being able ro understand and interpret images and text is a skill you should have at least learned the basics of by high school, otherwise you end up misunderstanding the whole world and spend your life angry at things you don’t understand.

Yes because I forgot how the nazis were defeated…with words and thoughts and prayers.
Also right now in Ukraine they’re kindly winning by sending strong worded memes and letters.
And Myanmar, they’re also fighting with just words.
You people are delusional if you think you can defeat authoritarian fascist with kindness and words and voting.
The only reason that fascist listen to is force. Get over it. Nothing in this world is given when it has been already taken by force.

Just because people think a military needs arms, that doesn’t mean they think their unhinged neighbor needs them. The 2A says a well regulated militia should have arms, not just any rando.
This wasn’t even a debate until recently. In the Old West every town had a prohibition on guns in town. If they didn’t need them, you don’t.
DaneGerous@lemmy.world 9 months ago
It doesn’t say that. It says “… the right of the people…” meaning the people have the right mentioned. The militia is made out of any rando.
SupraMario@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Lol tell that Myanmar. You are delusional if you think the army is going to protect you from fascist…

Did you read their comment? They advocated for the use of force and violence although with more nuance than that.
TengoDosVacas@lemmy.world 9 months ago
That is because it is the only reasonable response. Only dumbasses think they can stop fascism “with open debate and better ideas”.
SupraMario@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Yea…my point still stands. The same people who want to rebel against fascist…also hate firearms and would love to remove the 2nd. This isn’t some unknown thing.

I see that in many ways we are saying the same thing, but I also see based on what you write that you seem not to be able to see that…
Nonetheless, you just seem a bit disorganized and angry, nothing wrong with that, at least you are trying. My only suggestion is your application would yield much greater force if you focused on the “technique” of communication (including reading comprehension) more.
Thanks for your replies, have a nice day.
SupraMario@lemmy.world 9 months ago
No, you suggested I was creating some world where people disagree that force is needed against fascist…this entire thread is proof that it’s not just created but correct. Look how many people disagree with the right the bear arms and to use force against fascist. I think you’ve created a world where people agree to use force… because that’s far from the truth.
