    Americans be like “we need guns to oppose tyranny” then use guns to install fascism and threaten the most disadvantaged people in society.

      Leftist gun-guy here.

      No fascist will ever be aided by my gun ownership. I just wish the rest of the left wasn’t so insistent on disarming themselves.

    Kansas just issued new license plates to everyone and one of the designs is a “Don’t tread on me” flag so I’ve been seeing a lot of them on exactly the vehicles you’d expect.

    My dude… You bought that from the government… To register your vehicle with the government… To drive on roads maintained and regulated by the government… Who do you think is doing the treading?

    I think the thing about Americans is that we won’t go halfway with anything. I think that once things flip and people start revolting, the violence that we will see will be SHOCKING. It is just going to take a lot to get to that point. A significant degradation of the daily quality of life. So far we still have bread and circuses, even if they are expensive.

      The housecats of politics. They desperately want out of the house and don’t understand that they’re just an appetizer for the wealthy without regulation to protect them.

        Man you must have some unhappy house cats. My cat went out onto the patio, realised he could get the same smells from the open window, and went back inside.

        Cat tax before you animals demand it.

          We have two very brave girls who don’t understand that the coyotes and foxes want to be much closer than friends.

      They want to be free to exploit others. Or at least dream that one day they might.

      Um, aktuly you’re only repressed because you choose to be. I’m free because I’m going along with the repression to make money.

    Maybe my sample isn’t representative enough, but I literally don’t know anyone besides maybe my extremely conservative grandfather who agrees with that.

    I love the Cops and my Boss.

    I hate the Woke Cops and my HR.
