Ugh. I still hate guns. Guns kill people and the US obsession with them will never make sense to me.
But at this point it’s probably good that it’s not only the supporters if the lunatic fascist oligarchy that are armed. It hurts to admit, but I’d rather see a Nazi shot dead than a decent human being. Heck, if I were in the US I might learn how to shoot a gun at this point.
Marx died around the time that automatic firearms became a thing. For fighting tyranny bolt actions are solid. For mass murdering defenseless children, automatic weapons are more suited.
On the other hand if Marx had witnessed modern surveillance capitalism, he might had advocated for everyone to own automatic grenade launchers…

I hate nukes but the lesson of the 21st century has definitely been “get nukes and never give them up”
Marx said workers should be armed. That sentiment didn’t come out of nowhere; shit like this is the reason why.
