    The especially annoying part is that a lot of them are acting like preachers telling the rest of the world we should arm ourselves in case our governments becomes a fascist dictatorship, saying they themselves are armed and ready, in case an ICE officer comes towards them with a shock glove, and they will not hesitate to shoot. But then, nobody does it because “they don’t want to give the government a reason to escalate things”, “it might start a civil war”, or “they are scary”.

    They spread their pro-gun BS worldwide, boast about their 2nd amendment, then in the next comment, another one apologizes to the rest of the world for their government turning into a fascist dictatorship. I know they’re not the same person. I know there’s significant nuance to apply, but they’re not making it easy.
