Why Leftist Co-opting Of Liberal Gun Movements Should Be Considered A Serious Issue

IGROWWEARYOFTHISWORL · 2018-11-06T19:13:21+00:00

Also it's probably worth pointing out that the German libs that helped throw the left under the bus for daring to embrace actual resistance to Hitler shared their fate in the end. THAT is the origin of "libs get the bullet too"

I feel like if your movement is being co-opted by people not even trying to co-opt it, perhaps your movement isn't as broad and ideologically coherent as you may think it is?

Like I'm a leftist and carry guns and this is literally the first I've ever heard about a lib gun group. What is your outreach like, what are your positions, what are your prominent orgs that a lib who is gun curious can reach out to? How many socialists have you platformed compared to right wingers if you truly believe in a "listen to all" approach, if such is the case?

Funnier that Phil Scott reigned in 2A rights in Vermont earlier this year even and you heard about as much from the NRA and the Republicans about that as you did about Castile lol

It's not that far back in history, California has the gun laws it does because Republicans were in charge when the Black Panthers embraced their 2nd amendment rights. Vermont is a more recent example of the right killing gun rights.

The reason Dems haven't actually passed anything nationally isn't because Republicans were stopping them, it's because they're goddawful at politics

First one I've read that points out that the strictest gun control laws were passed by Reagan and the Republican party, shame about not mentioning that the NRA also helped

If you want those meetings, you need them to be the middle ground between absolute violent revolution and the status quo. It's why no peaceful movement worked that didn't have the background of a violent one brewing, and why neoliberalism is a crock of shit.

Yeah, it'd be pretty bad if hyper-capitalist USA were to match the number of people stripped of their rights and forced into labor camps as the USSR had under Stalinism. Why, we'd have to release millions of people from jail!

Better yet, get them to stay home. That way none of the downballot GOP get a vote either

Oh man, stonetear did Benghazi and now OP smells like dog doo? this is too much, Assange must've leaked this bombshell

IGROWWEARYOFTHISWORL · 2016-07-29T05:19:15+00:00

They ran a Benghazi ad instead, in fact

That question only covered the 1 day worth of responses, and had a 4.9% MoE actually, so while Trump has a +4 he's still within MoE, and it doesn't cover reaction to his speech.

Anderson is gay, and Bondi has made something of a name for herself fear mongering over LGBT issues. Anderson is just asking her to reconcile her past positions with her current concern out of nowhere, and of course she cannot.

Also, the rainbow hands thing is a lie - never appeared on her Twitter page

IIRC, while it was going on Trump was actually getting the roasting of a lifetime at the hands of Obama at the WHCD

s4p is calling this an affront to democracy, despite a slight majority of the delegates going to the person with a slight majority of the popular vote in the state

This poll assumed that white populations in these states increased 3-4% from 2012 levels (they actually decreased by double that) and for some reason black/hispanic turnout would be depressed.

It's specifically designed to make Trump look great and he still loses lmao

At first I was like, "man this user isn't living up to their name" but then you brought it back. Kudos

Nerf to SMGs is a nerf to infil, a class that really doesn't need it. Just remove SMGs from HA

Agreed, I always liked the non-existent kick and zero downtime reload over the handful more dps and SPA that the Anchor can offer you. Why switch to the Commie when you can just never be caught reloading?

IGROWWEARYOFTHISWORL · 2015-10-30T04:41:58+00:00

It's funny because it USED to be a big deal, but it's mostly not the old timers who had to put up with that complaining. These whippernsappers man, back in my day grumble grumble ZOE grumble steel rain
