“Also, there is no way that the gun was a part of this crime! Guns don’t kill people. Only the mentally unstable people we goad into mass shootings with the weapons and ammo we sell them kill people.”
Haven't we had many records of "good guys with a gun"
Who pull out their weapon and then either get shot by police who mistake them for the shooter or put it back because they can't tell what's going on in the chaos?
I know so many people who think they are helping by critiquing like this when they are not. And also expect a “thank you” for their destructive distraction. If there were a hell I hope they are the first to burn or freeze in it.
It is worth being conversant and properly educated about the things that are important to you if you want to engage meaningfully with people who disagree. That means knowing the vocab, syntax, and lingo.
For example, if you hate manga / anime / Japanese character retardation like I do, it's worth knowing the difference to tell people it's stupid on their own terms.
A garbage, labor camp of a country filled with selfish people who'd literally rather have the option to buy whatever they want than protect children from a continuous stream of violent death, when they aren't calling to further defund their schools to cut the taxes an actual society would require to function.
Oh, but I better root for the home team like its a fucking game, amirite? At this point, I'm rooting for climate change, AI, and all our other for profit monuments to greed to eat us and wipe the board clean.
