As a leftist I do not like guns. I guess that is the lie.

Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered. Any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary.

What if we're not American have never had guns in the first place?

Why is every discussion of left vs right politics always couched as if only the United States has politics and the rest of the world essentially doesn't exist in any real meaningful sense?

To me leftists are revolutionary. I'm curious to know how you're going to be part of a revolution without an actual threat to power.

I’m a leftist who doesn’t much care for guns but I’ll use one if I fucking have to.

Leftists don't have to hate leftists. We could learn to celebrate each other.

I think the joke is all the inner fighting between different leftist ideas and sects.
