        Incorrect. Americans do not revolt because we are fat and not uncomfortable enough. Russians do not revolt because they are drunk and numb…because they are drunk.

        Growing apathy? The collapse of the USSR and their living standards falling did a number on them

    It’s almost as if it was all bullshit to get you to donate to a organization specifically designed to enrich its officers and gun manufacturers.

    Read this as “Cmon do a racist tyranny” at first. Like, damn thats pretty mask off, and hello welcome to the last decade…

    But yeah, “resist” works too.

    Uh, the average level of American marksmanship that we’ve seen suggests that tyranny is perfectly safe.

    NRA obviously isn’t going to help us, but your local Socialist Rifle Association would be more amenable to resisting tyranny. If there is no chapter in your area get some like minded friends together and start one.

    Edit: How could I forget your local John Brown Gun Club, good number of chapters around the country and they will be comrades.

      SRA is pretty explicit about not being a “militia” of any kind. Good place to meet cool people, but they won’t be resisting under the SRA banner. John Brown Gun Club on the other hand is a little less timid about showing up to protect people.

        Thanks for mentioning them, my thoughts were apparently not fully engaged yet when I posted, and originally said ‘Socialist Rifle Club’, my brain combined them into one

    White supremacist organizations like the NRA are constantly working to impose tyranny.

    Might have better luck with the Marine Corps than the NRA. Either way, it won’t be an organizational/top-down thing.

    EDIT: some context

    Democrat-voting socialist here, this argument is fucking stupid because nothing is stopping the Left from also buying guns and doing what this post is implying. Y’all just want an easy target to hate and impotently complain online about, when you could also go buy a gun, organize, and stop tyranny yourself.

    Fuck Trump fuck Republicans, but also fuck Democrats, including you the person reading this, for being associated with gun fearing pussies who want other people to do the hard work for you.

        It’s not dangerous if you insert using the correct type of gun lube and not have a round in the chamber, if you know what i mean 🚬🥸

    “From my cold dead hands!”

    They actually apparently want to die, not actually keep their guns.
