Go ahead and act on that. The whole wolrd is waiting. I'm so fucking tired of Americans saying they are arming themselves for protection in case their government comes from them, while their country is literally falling to fascism, restricts their rights, and threatens to invade multiple other countries.

But oh yeah, your arsenal is obviously going to scare your government and its war machine when they'll come for you.

Fucking individualist Americans. Always saying they are arming themselves and that everyone should too, while they watch and do nothing aside from buying even more fucking weapons.
