My face when

Oh it gets better, the dude who was the “architect” of the “legal” coup strategy just got elected Speaker! This is fine…

Republicans love de facto gun control. They'll have the cops kill every armed PoC no matter how lawfully they were armed, and then acquit the killer cops.

We're long past soap box and poll box, the fascists are using the jury box, and you'd have us give those same fascists exclusive rights to the ammo box.

Disarming the public can only be beneficial in a functioning democracy. The people to whom you'd give exclusive access are the same people who are currently murdering us.

Slightly conflicted because I agree with the sentiment, but this is hardly a meme and has no humor to it.

You know what they're afraid of more.

First time?

This assumes that the mass shootings are a problem that they'd want to solve, but it's not since mass shootings are useful to them. They're flashy, get lots of media coverage, and feed a sense of chaos and societal breakdown. With that, they make the case the current system can't keep you safe, and we need an authoritarian to bring order, which they're happy to provide.

Mfw I remember Democrats had the majority in the Senate and the house as well as a SCOTUS that would back them, but they didn't codify Roe v Wade.

When they make Internet legislation to "protect the children", but won't legislate guns to actually protect the children.

I mean hopefully this clown show that is a Republican congress will hurt them in 2024. They aren’t competent.

cowards

Republicans or Democrats, doesn't matter.
\ They're still a bunch of clown politicians more focused on saving their own ass then doing what's right.
\ Y'all can down vote all you want, but deep down you know it's true.

Mfw the liberals who acknowledge that the Republicans are fascists want only the fascists to have guns (if you think gun control will be enforced by fascist cops to disarm their fascist buddies you've got another thing coming)

Mfw liberals don't acknowledge that mass shootings are caused by white supremacy, misogyny, and abuse culture in addition to guns because they don't want to or are incapable of addressing white supremacy, misogyny, and abuse culture, but they are capable of pushing gun control (that doesn't prevent mass shootings (see my first point) but does further criminalize poc, poor people, queer people, and women owning guns)

Mfw liberals have never heard of the mulford act and understood its political implications

Mfw liberals haven't read any anti-colonial history or civil rights history, even basic stuff like "this nonviolent stuff will get you killed" which shows how an armed movement has been necessary for both violent and nonviolent liberatory movements

The best cure to liberalism is picking up a book on the history of liberation movements that isnt full of whitewashed US history class bullshit.

My face when the left acknowledges we are on the precipice of losing our democracy and rights to religious authoritarians while simultaneously begging for the removal of our last possible resort to stop it and protect ourselves.
