      While I agree with good old Karl, reality is that very few American gun owners got their guns to fight for the liberation of the working class. Most of them got them to defend themselves against racialised lower-class criminals or to prop up bullshit performative masculinity.

      American gun culture is fucked and filled with reactionary chuddery. It shouldn't be celebrated.

      PS: The SRA are based. Had I been an American I would get a gun and join them.

      Over half of the guns are in possession of like 20% of the people, rich old white guys

        that's good they are going to be like real life loot boxes. Kill one old white guy, get enough guns for your entire militia

      while i agree, just because marx said something does not make it fact or a compelling argument

        To be fair, the phrase "the workers" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that quote. American jet ski dealership owners don't really fit that description.
