I don’t know anyone who can cut hair and I can’t afford to pay 25 bucks to get my hair cut so I shaved off my fairly long hair. Now people feel its acceptable to come into my job and tell me their stupid fucking takes regurgitated from whatever they heard on fox news this morning. As I’m at work I can’t share my opinions on the issues they don’t begin to comprehend. Now I know why Marx had so much hair, its repellent
I remember during the 2020 riots a guy I worked with asked me how I felt about gun control, figured I was a fellow chud and began ranting about how the deranged left were burning the city down around us.
Been there. The communism = no guns thing always confused the fuck out of me. Where do they think all the Kalashnikovs came from?
My guess on that has been that it’s intrinsically tied to American settler colonialism. There’s a kernel inside every chud who believes they’re brave frontiersmen who need to defend their homestead. White supremacy stuff basically
and they have such a shallow understanding of the world they only interpret it as “good guys with guns shoot bad people of lesser races.” So gun control can only be interpreted as restrictions on white autonomy
I suspect you’re right. With some communism is when the government does stuff and the government ultimately seeks to emasculate you so that they can do even more stuff thrown in
Do the reactionaries where you live actually think of communism when they say the “left”?
Anything left of hunting the homeless for sport is communism where I’m from
Well the Bolsheviks really did confiscate people’s guns after coming into power.
…in order to distribute those guns to the Red Army which was being formed to fight the civil war that was starting.
