I think you are misrepresenting the left/right divide. First, what does it matter if it is followed by state lines? Second, Fighting in the streets is unlikely to be the only thing to happen in a scenario where the democratic party starts gun bans/buybacks/confiscations/etc. In that case there will be confrontation after confrontation with the feds and things will get far more heated than just a shooting during a protest. Local police in certain areas are known to refuse to enforce laws and sanctuary declarations (in regard to gun laws) from towns/counties in protest have happened in plenty of rural areas.

You do nothing? What does that mean? You don't have a job? How do you get food into you? Dumpster dive? Sleep on the streets?

Edit: Forgot that it is creator of GenZanarchist I am talking to. Nevermind. You live with your parents and probably plan to for five years after your eighteenth birthday and yet think you can talk about how we should work ourselves to death for your sacred communist religion of from each according to ability to each according to need.

I don't see a need to or the benefit of extending the concept of anarchy to apply to non-human beings. What does it matter to me if the nightshade is living in anarchy? It provides nothing to further anarchy by explaining that a nightshade's life is anarchic. Humans aren't nightshades.

Would you say that an individual has no culture? I would say even if an individual is alone, they have a culture of their own, as in values they have, what they enjoy, etc. In that sense I don't think culture requires socialization, albeit it almost always has it.

A worse scenario would be that he’s saying “we” to speak for all of “humanity”, or if that term is too civilized and not primal enough, “hunter-gatherity”.

One of the few good parts of this text haha

Quite plainly it isn't the end goal, unless you are a communist desperately trying to gather all the support you can possibly get. Then maybe you could spin rhetoric that way to convince some anarchists to work with you. That's what you must resort to if you are well aware of your failure of an ideology.

Anarchism is rejecting authority. To prevent semantics:

Authority is the right to command, and correlatively, the right to be obeyed. It must be distinguished from power, which is the ability to compel compliance, either through the use or the threat of force. When I turn over my wallet to a thief who is holding me at gunpoint, I do so because the fate with which he threatens me is worse than the loss of money which I am made to suffer. I grant that he has power over me, but I would hardly suppose that he has authority, that is, that he has a right to demand my money and that I have an obligation to give it to him.

Now, as such, the "right" of the people to have power over me is something I, an anarchist, oppose and do fight against. Marxists on the other hand (communists in general) believe in the "right" of the people to own the means of production, the "right" of the people to collectively rule and have power over me. I do not have the same end goal as marxists, no matter how many times you say I do.

I also oppose whomever has power over me, as in the example of the thief forcing me to do something

like anarchist biohackers getting yeast to produce critical cheese proteins without e

He must really need his CRITICAL cheese proteins

A dirty critique indeed. I'd say shitty. It's so shallow

The whole paragraph about mining in the Congo completely ignores the point. You cannot have Coltan without having people mine it. And I'd love to see William Gillis mine some Coltan. We'll see how he really likes it when he is forced (in his utopian society) to witness his own exploitation of other people. Then again, he probably won't care. "I traded my paintings for this sick Coltan!" he will say

He starts talking about primitivists who don't think like he generalizes them to think and immediately gets off that train before it backfires in his face

I was thinking about that as I posted the comment, but my mindset was that it might be legit and maybe abundant warning would suffice. Really torn as to what to do, but since I can't edit titles and add a warning there I will probably just make a rule against soliciting and chalk it up under that

Why buy guns from the black market when you can just head to a gun show or festival? Or from a friend?

You cops are clueless

My thoughts are fuck them. If they are elected and get what they are wanting with gun confiscation I will unfortunately be heading somewhere I'd like to avoid.

My point is that isosceles stance (especially the power isosceles) allows one to draw faster, acquire the target faster, get the first shot faster, and absorb more recoil naturally which allows faster target re-acquisition to follow up with more shots faster.

Extrapolate on this please, I do not understand how it allows me to draw faster, or do anything you described faster than any other stance. I draw about the same speed with both stances, unless you are talking about assuming the stance, which is much slower for me in the isosceles stance so I could argue the weaver allows people to draw faster (but I'm not going to, because it only allows me to draw faster, apparently).

What you should have said is this:

My point is that isosceles stance (especially the power isosceles) allows one ME to draw faster, acquire the target faster, get the first shot faster, and absorb more recoil naturally which allows faster target re-acquisition to follow up with more shots faster.

This stance is particularly useful for smaller stature people who may have more difficulty managing recoil as it isn't as much dependent on active muscular tension.

I agree, and if the stance works for you and your situation, wonderful! But other stances work for other people, believe it or not. And they will not "get people killed"

Also, I take offense that you would assume my preference of the isosceles stance, that the winners in competitions since the 1980's have adopted, is equated with spending my time hanging around bootlicking tools and cops. I care about my community, including you, and want them to train with the best known tools available.

Great, then perhaps you understand why I took offense to you telling me that the stance I use to shoot handguns in will get me or other people killed, when it obviously will not. There is no universal best, absolutely perfect stance that everyone should use because a competition shooter uses it

Did you read my comment? "...what was it for?"

Enjoy slaving away for 50-60 years and then the next 30 (if ""lucky") addicted to pain killers and in a retirement home and in/out of the hostpital. Oh, if you are rich enough to afford it. Otherwise you probably aren't living to 80-90. Life expectancy means nothing without regard to life satisfaction. A 10-20 year difference (in life capability) is not much. I don't know if you are old enough to have had a moment in your life that was satisfactory enough to be able to justify sacrificing a few years just to have that time in your life, but I am. The link you posted only confirms what was stated in the link I posted, if you were bothered enough to read the comments.
