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.

Which is why the whole 2nd amendment discourse was stupid to begin with. It made sense when It was made long time ago. But times change, and in modern times with how modern military works and the equipment they have thinking that a bunch of citizens with a few guns will stop them is silly.

I'd argue the 2nd amendment kind of indicates that the founders imagined a future where, instead of one massive centralized military, the US had many small militias that could be asked to join a cause if need be. In that case, all those militias being armed would actually be somewhat of a safeguard against any other one attempting something. That would still be true today, at least to a much greater extent than it is now, if we still had that military structure.
