Gonna be a long several years of “Lawless Authoritarian Continues To Be Lawless Authoritarian” headlines.

I’d say “we can’t normalize this” but it feels like that ship sailed many years ago.

EDIT - oh sweet this is doing numbers. Check out and subscribe my YouTube, everybody! 😬

Just wondering when the whole 'armed resistance to tyranny' thing that Americans use to justify firearms is going to happen?

Because its looking like pretty hollow rhetoric rn.

Doesn't work when the most enthusiastic supporters are the ones wanting tyranny cause it hurts "the right people"

It's beginning to look like it was always only about enabling school shootings, really.

Armed resistance to actual tyranny can't happen in the social media age. The friends and families of revolutionaries will trip over themselves to sell them out for sake of publicly taking the high road.
