I don't even support a 100% gun ban or anything, I just think this behavior is tasteless asf.

Edit: Get mad and tone police me all you want gunbros, I stand by this.

            this is too milquetoast lib a take for stupidpol tbh

            stupidpol's more like...the libs wanna take your guns and that's why we need to support our comrades the proud boys as they fight against the dictatorship of the bourgeosie as they try to take away our guns

            this feels more like a lib that needs to lurk more instead of stir shit. I know I would've posted some obnoxious shit like this on the sub a few years back

            Boxy has been around and active a bit and most of his posts have been pretty good. I think this is just some lib brainworms that need to be bullied out.

            Struggle sessions are a thing for a reason. If he fails to take this opportunity to self-crit, that is problematic.

              The "bullying" isn't really changing my mind, and I think that's typically how it goes tbh. Internet arguments rarely change anyone's opinion in my experience.

              Oh well, shit happens.

                  But, again, do not take this response to mean that any of us did not mourn the children (or at least, as in my case, feel like absolute garbage that their capacity to mourn anything has been entirely depleted). The gut reaction is not "muh gunz". The gut reaction is "god damn America".

                  Unfortunately, we have to instantly switch to stamping out reactionary politics. This is not a reaction to the godawful news, it is a defense against reaction and reactionaries.

                    Exactly. Though I think mourning some people you have no connection to is some immaterial thoughts-and-prayers bullshit. The effective reaction to prevent gun violence from happening in your community is to be vigilant against the pigs cynically using this event to fundraise, which should be the real target of any critique of anyone's reaction to events like this.

                    Anyone who assumes anything less of us here needs to lurk more. We're not fucking soulless here.
