Ooh a potential gun struggle session. The 2nd amendment is liberal horseshit. Gun rights don't exist in the USA already for minorities.
The most salient communist quote on guns is not "under no pretext" which honestly US radlibs focused on as a substitute "under no pretext", but "political power comes from the barrel of a gun".
So yeah sure a socialist should consider buying a gun for their safety if circumstances require and permit, no debate there, and a revolutionary movement does eventually need guns.
But it's also not a contradiction to think things that things that disarm chuds, petit bourgeois, cops, or even the state itself (intentionally or through austerity) is cool and good.
sure but those things are never going to happen in America, so what's the point in wasting time discussing this?
It is pointless to argue about since it is never going to happen. We are more likely to have a mass movement revolution than an iota of actual gun control legislation.
I'm not advocating for attempt gun control on the USA, just we've had a bunch of huge pointless struggle session on it which is I agree with @InexplicableLunchFiend@hexbear.net is a waste of time.
Yet we persist.
