"Tired of constantly stressing over politics? Buy guns and radicalize yourself, surely you will be much happier and safer!"
Having the tools and knowledge to keep yourself safe does not make you radicalized. That's like saying learning how to swim or getting a boat means you were radicalized by water. Or learning first aid makes you a radicalized combat medic.
Getting a gun is a much less radical plan than changing countries....
They are already radicalized and continue to do so without stopping.
They already outnumber you and force/infiltrate local governments to enact laws that threaten your existence.
Unless you organize and do the same to counter their actions (LGBTQIA+ friendly militias that train everyday life skills, survival and marksmanship) instead of meekly arguing on the internet, they will fucking destroy you.
I'd rather be destroyed than fundamentally change my entire fucking life. Why are we never allowed to live comfortable, normal lives? Why do we always have to struggle? If they want me dead so badly, so be it. But they'll have to kill me, am unarmed, untrained individual. If there are people ready and willing to do that, then why would I want to live on this evil planet anymore?
You are fearmongering as well, especially when it's not even feasible for most people to go down the path you seem to think we all should. If our choices are die, or die with a gun in hand, I'll just choose to fucking die.
You forget we came from what are essentially violent chimps. You can't ignore the fact that many people only respond to violence because they're still unable to shrug of their chimp behaviors due to years of religious indoctrination.
Go ahead and give up, just don't encourage others to simply lay down and die with you because you feel alone in your acceptance of your shitty fate in life.
Instead you should inspire others to fight back for you since you're too lazy to do it your fucking self
Easy to criticize when you aren't the one at risk of losing your rights. Fuck you. Your fearmongering bullshit is pathetic, you come off as an internet tough guy and it's sad. Have fun acting tough on Lemmy, if that's what gets you off.
I just want to say I'll lay down and die with you if the alternative is whatever psychotic fantasy that other guy is living in.
It sounds like what I said triggered you, and I sincerely apologize about that. That was not my intent here.
I'm just trying to say if you're okay being a useless person, that's fine.
Just stop encouraging other people to be as useless as you and rather inspire them to take action and make the world better instead of sitting on your ass here with me and arguing dumb things like a typical internet dipshit.
You're a condescending asshat and you can go fuck yourself.
I apologize that I suck, I'm not a good communicator.
