The Las Vegas Sun waited a year to release an interview where Biden said: “There’s no rationale whatsoever to have more than 10 rounds in a magazine, and even that is too much in my view,” and that he planned to pass gun control by sneaking it in an essential, omnibus bill.— Latino Rifle Association (@LatinoRifleOrg) February 11, 2021
and even that is too much in my view,” and that he planned to pass gun control by sneaking it in an essential, omnibus bill.
I watched a documentary a while back on the spree shooter Randy Stair and his said a line in his manifesto that stood out to me, "you can't stop mass shootings, you can only endure them". Yeah, he was right. Until neoliberal capitalism is abolished and solidarity is built within the working class and the workers are no longer alienated from their labor, people are going to continue to snap. Add in the isolation that comes from the internet age, suburbs, toxic gun fetish culture and a mental healthcare system that's basically in shambles at this point, and well this is what you get.
Felix in one of the previous episodes mentioned that US Imperialism also fostered a cultural idea of people being "disposable" and I kind of think that has credence as well.
But that's also a +1 to the idea Communism would stop mass shootings since it would raise the value of human lives rather than reduce it like neoliberalism and capitalism does.
You know what's going to stop mass shootings? Communism. I'm dead serious. Neoliberal capitalism produces spree shooters.
