West coast in the US doesn’t really have this problem. I travel for work and it’s fucking insane how much the rest of this country will make crosswalks with no way to reach them.

I guess they and some is complicated for you, dumbass.

I never claimed they should banned, you fucking idiot. You are arguing against an imaginary person. Easy access to guns is objectively stupid.

The storyline is a fascism. Frank thought libertarianism would stop what he was writing about. He didn’t want fascism but wrote about it. The second book is mostly about Paul falling apart and dying. Even though he thought he could follow a perfect path to being a perfect leader.

I personally don’t care much about literary complexity. I find it interesting, and that’s all that matters to me. If you disagree, that’s fine too.

Yeah, but that isn’t why people like it. Like Harry potter and Wizarding world of the transphobe.

It’s likely not ok. But focusing on every source of carcinogen in your life won’t stop you from getting cancer eventually. Eating healthy and using Teflon pans will probably give you a better life than eating like shit on cast iron. No real way to know the future though.

Tritan is a good example of this hyper focus on not consuming bad stuff. It has 3 components, 2 of which imitate estrogen. It’s the plastic that replaced polycarbonate. Which is derived from BPA, but in reality contains very little after you wash it once.

I’d not looked into Frank before now, but I’ve read 2.5 of the dune books. It’s weird to see he was a self described conservative and libertarian. The whole dune story seems to mock everything he stands for politically. It’s like he was completely unaware of the power structures he was writing about exist across all US (and non-US) political parties.

I keep wondering when you will ask what i mean by easy access to guns. Dumb people always take several steps back into their beliefs before fighting back.

Yes. Fascists don’t need to seize guns and have a complicated relationship with them. Nazi Germany is the easiest example. Gun ownership for true Germans and completely disallowed for ‘the other’. It does vary though, which is part of the difficulty in defining fascism and identifying fascists.

I’d argue you are more of a debate lord. Telling me you won’t respond, then making more false stupid statements.

Gun people have sanitized history to support improved sales in the past. Its completely accepted these days that removing guns from a population under fascism is required.

Expanding the argument doesn’t disagree with my point, easy access to guns is stupid. Never disagreed with mental health or education. Stupid people tend to imagine who they are arguing against, which is why you imagined i disagreed with you on those points.

Fascism does sometimes include siezing of guns. But it’s not a required component. The talking point about guns saving us from Fascism is a sales pitch from the 50s and 60s. Guns don’t save anyone from Fascism. It does drive sales up though.

Keep talking past the point all you want, i guess. Doesn’t make anything you say more correct.

Banning some guns is part of regulation, unless you don’t understand how regulation works.

My ‘wut’ is about you fundamentally misunderstanding how regulation works. I’m not allowed to drive a semi because I don’t have a class A license. Just like I shouldn’t own an AR-15 to control the local deer population.

Wut?

I dont want firearms to be removed, beyond restricting access. Including logical fallacies is how I single out people with weak ideologies. Weak beliefs always lean on logical fallacies when challenged.

Move the goalposts again if you wish. Individual harm caused by thermite is relatively limited, even in a war like setting. Lighting a forest on fire doesn’t require thermite. Unless you’re a fuckin idiot or in middle school

The current administration is too inept to effectively remove firearms. Fascism has always existed in the US, but its more obvious today than in 1940. We don’t win by clinging to guns and pretending they will provide retribution.

I won’t elaborate on the very basic knowledge I have of explosives because you seem to think knowing about thermite makes you threatening lol.

Put the meth down.

Thermite is only dangerous in very specific situations. You aren’t some scary bad ass because you think you know how to make bombs. Bigger and better explosives are made with other things that get you put on a list for buying to much of.

Guns need to be regulated is such a broad statement. Its meant to allow dumb people to interpret it however they want. Easy access to guns is objectively stupid.

I’m not afraid and don’t think they should be banned. I like going shooting in the woods for fun. Cars require registration and a license like guns should.

Easy access to guns is objectively stupid. Read what I say without implying things.

Napalm is not styrofoam mixed with gas, full stop.

It must be the 90s again to see someone saying that styrofoam and gasoline makes napalm lol. That is not actual napalm. It could hurt people, but it’s more like being lit on fire in modern plastic clothes than it is napalm.

Having easy access to guns is just objectively stupid.
