having fun fellating yourself on top of your high horse on the Internet? sorry, but it is not every persons responsibility to play morality police and risk their lives to defend other people. condemning people for not fighting is fucking asinine and not something ANY person is obligated to do and I'm tired of people acting like it is

It's not anyones responsibility to risk their lives, I wouldn't blame anyone for not standing up against the Nazis in 1938 Germany, but in light of what we know, it's becoming more and more impossible to maintain a clear conscience without fighting back.

I don't see it as 'condemning' someone for not doing more, just a belief that anyone capable should do more and they will likely feel regret if they don't.

Nah, we are, we are. We can just be too cowardly to do it (God knows I would be if I were in the same position). And lying about it, even if you've also lied to yourself, is a bit shameful.

you're the coward. haven't seen you on the evening news, yet here you are on the internet on your high horse talking about being brave. put up or shut up cuz you're not brave for BUYING SOMETHING and annoying your friends, you gotta actually fucking do something.

Coward and a fool. You clearly learned nothing from the Many "lone wolf" mass shooters. Nothing ever changes from one man with a gun shooting randomly at people. I also never said I was brave, only that You are a coward, which clearly upsets you because you know it is a fact.

Says the "man" who can't stop responding like an angry child. I'm focusing on the reality around me, the facts of the world, while you are doing... what? Getting angry that someone else gives a damn? Pathetic.

when i see you on the news then you can say you're doing something. until then, you're literally nothing but liberal meal team six annoying your friends and funding the gun lobby industry who checks notes is a big reason we're even in this position.
