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.

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.
No, not really. Bullying does work I've seen it happen before and it's worked on me before. If you don't use leftists pushing back on you so strongly as a moment of reflection, then that's a you problem
I guess it's a me problem then. :shrug-outta-hecks:
It definitely is then. Take an L and think about things
I won't actually. I might still be outnumbered by pro-gun people here, but the upvotes my post has received tells me I'm very much not alone in feeling this way either.
I'll agree to disagree with the people who feel differently than me, and move on, cuz ultimately this is all just a meaningless internet argument.
:corn-man-khrush:
I need this to be one of the random headers for main. I keep coming back to read it and it makes me laugh every time.
Upvotes on the site are pretty meaningless and aren't really indicative of anything. It's more telling that no one is backing you up on this.
There are some other people from what I can see, and I wouldn't be surprised if others are choosing to lurk cuz they don't wanna get dogpiled lol.

ngl I've been suspicious it's either that or a whole host of folks with lib gun control :brainworms:
they should do a seance with reagan and ask him about how he killed the last vestige of the BPP
I have 50 something alts? That's ridiculous, I'm not Eggman.
you should make more alts, you're at < 1:2 upvotes to comments
gun control in amerikkka is racist. full stop.
your enlightened centrist shitpost tacitly advocating for gun control in amerikkka is racist. full stop.
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.
