At this point I feel like organizers need to consult with the French on how to throw a revolution.
They got a bad wrap (rap? I’m not sure, only heard it spoken) with WW2, but man… they could revolt.
Guillotines were unwieldy, near stationary equalizers. Imagine what the American people could do with plentiful arms and ammunition. I know, that AR15 isn’t gonna stop a tank, but a militant group of rednecks with access to basic chemistry supplies can be dangerous.
Sadly, the it seems the people who want to “fight tyranny” and buy all the guns and ammo en masse are also fascist bootlickers.
I lean left, hard. That being said, I remain very Pro 2A.
I haven’t been worried about the military with all the stochastic terrorism in the red states I’ve lived in, I’ve been worried about my neighbors. And I gotta tell ya, Cletus with his temu body armor and lack of fingers is a concern, but not so much as a military vehicle (or militarized police vehicle) worry me.
But honestly, if the military refuses to uphold their oath to protect the constitution against enemies foreign and (more importantly) domestic - well, we’re all fucked.
Uncle Sam does not fuck around when it comes to exterminating civilians, and pigs are just military wash outs who didn’t exceed the intelligence requirement.
No, not all things.
However, we’re - in this post - operating on the premise of immortality.
There are less and less “free” things to do as the days pass.
Something something capitalism, something something monetization.
Not entirely relevant to the hypothetical, but as LPT - it falls a little flat.
People optimize to make their life easier, less chaotic, or stressful.
I’m not gonna take an hour detour for the views and risk losing my job. I need that. To live. Of course, immortality solves that - but that falls outside of the “Life” part of the Life Pro Tip.
Maybe my perception is warped however. ADHD and the requirement for constant novelty can be draining. I freely admit I don’t have the healthiest views on everything, and what works for others may not work for me.
I’m a gamer. And I can LOVE a game. For a while. As I get older, it seems to take less and less time for the honeymoon effect to wear off. But hey, that could be the bipolar disorder clouding perspective as well.
So focus on my mental health? See a therapist, get different meds? Yeah, not in America. Not easily, and not cheaply… oh wait, back to money.
