If you look at the one side of the political spectrum that seems to be usurping power over here, they fucking LOVE guns. It wouldnt surprise me that if they got violent, it would be armed heavily with firearms. This is the exact response i would expect from would be victims of aforementioned gun violence. in the words of my constituion and bible humping american brethren, we shall NOT BE VICTIM TO A TYRANNICAL STATE!
Well, we can’t effectively ban guns. At least not in our foreseeable political future. And the people who are already armed are overwhelmingly voting to elect a fascist who likes to incite violence among minority groups… It’s kinda easy to see why people would want to arm themselves.
I mean rapists, transphobes, bigots, and neo Nazis all now feel carte blanche freedom to do whatever they please in this country. There will absolutely be more crimes against women, LGBTQ+, minorities, and liberals. Not arming yourself against these animals is the insane thing.
It’s me, another trans who is actively applying to move out of the US. If I were staying here I’d be arming myself too even though I hate everything about guns. I’ve been voting, protesting, community aid, talking with people I know, building relations with my neighbors, it’s all backsliding anyway. Not a lot of options left for me
People radicalized to insane culture war bullshit and irrational solipsistic oblivion cults can’t really be negotiated with.
Institutions will never fix anything.
Intense atomization and alienation keep us from creating society with one another. There’s no time to do anything complicated; most of us work too much. You just get home and youre exhausted.

You realize that it sounds like you’re talking referring to trans people and allies in this comment right? Just to be clear, which group are you referring to?
Why are Americans answers to everything guns? So much paranoia and mental health issues in this country it’s insane.

What would you suggest? I have three trans friends who are making plans to move, at least for a few years, but not everyone can do that.
Look to what other countries do maybe, they don’t answer every single problem with paranoia and guns.

So; gun.

‘oblivion cults’ makes it clear they’re talking about right-wingers
