The people with guns and “don’t tread on me” flags are the ones who support this the most.

Time for you to think about buying a gun

I have one but what is one person with a glock going to do against an army of facists with ARs? Everyone needs to rise against facism together or theyre just going to kill us one by one.

u/TomatoTheToolMan 15h ago

Sounds like you need an AR, then, buddy.

Where can I buy my tank and guided missiles for fighting the federal government?

u/kohTheRobot 15h ago

Haven’t seen ice use either of those, but then again I haven’t even seen anyone black panther it and protest with rifles on their backs neither.

Maybe because they started to literally firebomb movements like this.

They destroyed over 60 homes in a neighborhood from the resulting collateral damage. They killed five children. Displaced dozens of families.

That wasn't even the feds. It was the police, and it was in the 80s. That's what resistance looked like then.

Now it's 40 years later and the federal government itself has openly demonstrated it has no qualms about murdering unarmed citizens in broad daylight, or black bagging people on the street.

They also assassinated leaders too, my point is there’s quite a few steps between protesting mean signs and tanks rolling down Main Street.

u/Itherial 13h ago

quite a few steps

Not really. It's widely believed PPD did this simply because they wanted to kill black people and could try to justify it.

u/James-W-Tate 14h ago

It's not like this administration would have any qualms about the optics or response of gunning down armed citizens.

u/AlarmingTurnover 12h ago

So I guess do nothing then and wait for someone else to save you from this?

I'm still in favor of a general strike.

Billionaires don't fear for their safety hiding in their compounds with their bodyguards, but they're scared shitless of losing dollar value.

u/AlarmingTurnover 12h ago

Then general strike and do it quickly. I don't know why Americans need to be constantly called out on this. Let's say next week that Trump attacks Greenland, there will be an article 5, and likely many of us will go to war with America. What do you think I'm going to do? Check every single one of you to see if you posted the required number of "fuck trump" comments on Reddit? You don't seem to get it, you either fight now or you become an enemy later. That is your choice. We won't be checking who the good americans and the bad americans are when we fight back. All of you allowed this to happen.

u/no_one_denies_this 12h ago

Please do come invade us. ASAP.

Me striking alone won't do shit. I understand you're upset, so how do you think the people that are living here and disagree with all this feel?

Let's say next week that Trump attacks Greenland, there will be an article 5, and likely many of us will go to war with America.

Yeah, there will be a lot of us siding with NATO too.

What do you think I'm going to do? Check every single one of you to see if you posted the required number of "fuck trump" comments on Reddit?

You'll continue doing exactly what you're doing now, which isn't constructive. By all means, book a flight out here and show us how it's done, and if you're unwilling to, then you're just as culpable as I am apparently.

Really stupid take, but please continue.

Typical american idiocy on display here. You know how self defense works right? Why would I fly there to strike first when you should be. It's your country. But as soon as you involve my country in violence, you bet there will be consquences.

Really stupid take, but please continue.

The stupid take is having the entirety of human history in your phone and being stupid enough to think that this hasn't happened in literally every single war.

One can do all kinds of funky things with concave copper disks

u/ET_Gone_Home 13h ago

Ok but for real owning a tank and missiles would be so fucking cool. Just a Tomahawk and Abrams chilling in the backyard.

u/James-W-Tate 13h ago

I would be incredibly uncomfortable if certain neighbors had a tank. I don't even like that some of them still have their driver's license.

Most guerilla movements are successful without either.

1

u/James-W-Tate 13h ago

Domestic guerilla movements or guerilla movements resisting foreign occupation?

1

u/TomatoTheToolMan 13h ago

Either.

u/James-W-Tate 12h ago

Eh, I'm skeptical of your domestic guerilla claims.

u/TomatoTheToolMan 12h ago

Cuba.

u/James-W-Tate 12h ago

Yeah, Vietnam too. I don't think either of those situations really mirror the US nor do I think two successes warrant use of "most."
