Since Trump’s election, gun groups catering to progressives and people of color report a surge in interest as they look to defend themselves in a country that, to them, feels increasingly unstable.

        Yeah nah bud. You’re arresting people trying to leave your country, tourists are getting roughed up, and violence from the government is increasing.

        I think your tourism deserves to decrease and you deserve to sleep in the bed you’ve made.

            You was speaking in countr terms as was the your before it.

            Even still, its like, there is no “we only support the non fascists” from a foreign perspective when it comes to tourism unfortunately.

            I mean there is a little bit when it comes to trade, like trading with blue states, but like, its all very intertwined to where youll be funding the fascist regime.

                I don’t think someone could have proved your point about performative behavioirs faster than that. They even felt the need to announce their block so no one would miss out on their preformance lmfao.

                    Feel like it should be required in High School to learn enough psychology to understand how your brain works. No one is gonna be immune to the peculiarities of the human brain, like the proclivity to narratives you mentioned, or how flalliable memory can be, but being aware those things exist helps so much. You can at lest start to identify patterns.

                The number one killer of children in America.

                The answer is yes, you are a bad person for promoting this nonsense.

                    Firearms injuries are number one good sir.

                    Ages 1–17: Firearms have been the leading cause of death for children and teens since 2020. In 2023, there were approximately 3,500 firearm-related deaths among children, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data.

      There are so, so many other great reasons too.

      To be clear your reason is a great reason. There are just so many others, too.
