"Terror campaign"? It's the US gun culture. While it's terrible and horrifying, it's not really so much of a campaign as it is a... culture. And it's not really a target group of people in this case because, while these folks are more likely to commit violence against marginalized groups, in this case it's just gonna be "Who is fucking with my car? Pop pop". Just because they are the type of person to commit hate crimes doesn't mean that everything they do is a hate crime. Does that make sense?
I'm just not sure how to get this through to you. US gun culture is a disease that goes way beyond "terror campaign" - you minimize it by putting it like that. This is a wide systemic and cultural issue that isn't going to be fixed by just refusing to ... to not vandalize random stickers??? The rainbow edit is hilarious but don't fucking act like you're standing up against ISIS by doing it or bowing to them by not.
Yes. And that culture involves going and shooting a bunch of marginalised people regularly. Whether it's in a shopping mall or in a gay nightclub.
These are acts of terror performed as part of a disorganised and decentralised campaign waged by the far right.
No I do not. I disagree with none of what you have said. Just because I didn't right a short essay about it does not mean I minimise it. Have a conversation with someone and actually listen to what they believe before you soapbox by talking at them instead of with them.
