libs aren't the ones doing this bullshit. in fact, libs built the VA and GI bill and a whole lot of other service benefits - fdr etc.

in my entire life, it's always been conservatives trying to dump vets on the streets. Reagan did it BIG TIME by closing thousands of hospitals - but bush and bush both cut vet benefits as well. Trump can't even spell veteran, but keeps trying to defund the VA.

it's fucking disgusting that the no service chickenhawk shitbags get away with it, and have the nerve to tell liberals they aren't there for the soldiers.

It sounds like soldiers and vets just voted for their own rights to disappear, how did libs make this happen? We aren't in power.

You misread my comment. I'm saying liberals need to uphold their second amendment before more veterans are killed.

so you're suggesting the solution to shitty government is murdering politicians?

it's cute. not really practical until you get to the french revolution scale, but I wish people had more familiarity with it beyond the guillotine and let them eat cake because that shit was fucking nuts. reign of terror nuts. wanna be a new robespierre? that'll work out well.

Politicians do it all the time. Who gave them the right to genocide again?

If you think it's hopeless for an armed resistance, January 6th would have never occurred. Now wake up your siblings, cousins, neighbors and allies. It's time to live up to your declaration.

How do you want me to interpret:

Doompost, or?

how many politicians do you think you'll need to murder to affect the change you want to see?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

How many that haven't answered for their murders. Do politicians really need a murder license?

"'¯ \ (ツ)/¯"

historically probably most of them. good luck, I hope it doesn't come to violence myself. I've seen warzones. I've seen places civil wars destroyed. The smell. And know how much more difficult it is to rebuild instead of not destroying the infrastructure in the first place. I don't take any of this lightly. And I wouldn't advocate this violence on social media like lemmy even if I did.

Oh, so you just ignore it when cops bomb homes.

We are both extremely aware of the consequences civil wars, I've lived through plenty. The question now is, are you willing to be complicit with your fascist death encampments, still genociding Yemen, or are you going to do anything else than continue to reply to me on an anarchist network?
