Listen, gun manufacturers pushing death on our society is not about class solidarity. Keep telling yourself that as you lick their boots.

Buddy, eventually you'll realize the "gun manufacturers" rhetoric is propogated by the (owned) media to muddy the waters in yet another artificially identarian scheme by the bourgeoisie.

Why? To create division, like all machinations of identity politics. But also to plant seeds that short-circuit the logic of the armed proletariat with emotions.

"Pushing death" is transferred culpability, absolving individuals of moral agency. The fact that arms manufacturers lobby the corrupt government to create warzones and kill innocents should make you mad at the people allowing that the happen, maybe even mad enough to arm yourself.

Oh wow that is a new one, did you just make that up.

Mad enough to buy weapons to arm myself to kill my fellow Americans? Hard pass.

Take your defense fantasy somewhere else, I don't approve of mental illness.

Liberal doesn't "approve of mental illness" lol that tracks, speaking the language of such empathy. Be gone with your capitalist defense replies to my comment.
