I like leftists in general, even moderat ones are miles better than roghtwing morons. likes guns is the lie tho. Leftists might need guns to fight against nazis but its a necessity not enjoyment.
Quick, name a revolution resulting in decolonization or AES that didn't involve guns? I'll wait forever.
Quick find a person, who wants armed conflict instead of peaceful resolution. Nobody wants to die in violence its sometimes a necessity, but if you enjoy shooting people your not left.
Shooting people? Dude, you can shoot targets for fun. It is literally an Olympic sport. People like guns because they are fun to shoot all over the world and I'm not American. Maybe you don't like guns but trust me when I say guns and marksmanship are normal and popular hobbies, you just need a license where I live lol
My friend, it's ok to be wrong. The more you shuffle goal posts around the more foolish your argument looks. Nobody once said that guns or marksmanship aren't normal hobbies, they said leftists don't inherently like guns. Not even that leftists specifically don't like guns.
I'm not wrong. Moving goalposts lol, you're insufferable. Lots of people like guns but also you are reading this fucking meme so literally, fuck off
People also like guns because it helps them feel like a hero in their fantasies that require guns due to some unknown threat.
I’m sure plenty of them like target shooting, but don’t kid yourself that that isn’t also likely fuelling their fantasies of having a justified reason to use the gun on another person. Surely it’s just coincidence that shooting ranges are using humanoid shapes for those targets.
For what purpose ultimately do you think being a good marksman would actually be used for?
They call it target practice for a reason, and it’s not for shooting more range targets.
