Don't tread on me sign and a visceral hatred of cops is at least logically consistent. There are way worse guys out there

Love the "FUCK" peaking above the bed on the right

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sometimes an angry "FUCK!" is the only appropriate response

This isn't really a new kind of guy

This is basically just Angry Libertarian

You're right, but oh my god I've seen so many Gadsden right fucking next to a Blue Lives Matter you'd think I took crazy pills cognitohazard

[–] [email protected] 31 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Same

It's amazing how many libertarians I run into who run close to grasping things

They hate cops, they hate corporations, they know the politicians are crooked

But they for some reason think that if we get rid of the few protections we have, everything will be fine

It's maddening

"Clearly the problem is we haven't doubled down on what's failing" is a quintessential American mindset. It exists elsewhere, of course, but the USA has a unique flair for it.

Blue lives matter - it's brain matter - pig been dead about an hour

Fuck it, I ate the opp

I'm glad I'm not the only one who made this connection

[–] [email protected] 39 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

This reads to me as someone who has personally experienced cops not being there to protect them, and has had a hard time processing that.

E) I didn't notice the combat veteran sticker before, but this is an understandable "type of guy." They did a tour in Iraq, then came home and found out that the america they killed scores of Iraqis for was one that had youtube videos of american police not protecting their kid(s) at Uvalde with the sound of children's screams removed on the cnn coverage.

the sound of children’s screams removed on the cnn coverage.

They actually did that? That's so fucked up. How does someone censor something like that and live with themselves afterwards?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

It's hard to find an appropriate link.

I was being flippant invoking CNN, I think it was the footage provided without that audio; but it was fucked up.

E) Not that it was fucked up to remove the audio because it's fucked up to hear children screaming or whatever, but the fact they had a graphic stating that it had been removed, or even showing the footage in the first place, I don't know. It's all fucked up.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Even if they didn't remove it, someone did. And I have no idea how someone who did something like that could sleep at night.

More ideologically consistent than like 90% of don't tread on me guys.

A cop in my neighborhood has a Gadsden flag license plate on his lifted pickup truck

This could just be, like, a REALLY big fan of Ice-T's Body Count project

[–] [email protected] 31 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I still remember the Pigs getting upset by Cop Killer

It's why I still pop it on real loud from time to time, even though I live like 30 feet from the police station

[–] [email protected] 29 points 3 months ago

That and N.W.A's "Fuck Tha Police"

It's weird to think that this guy is closer to understanding the core of international geopolitics than like, the DSA

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Libertarians are sometimes VERY close, but inevitably they slip into "muh property", "freedumbz" or "heil hitler" on the last step.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

They’re only close in the sense that they understand the state to be opposed to their class interest. But the correctness ends there because their understanding of class is the state versus everyone else. This smushes the bourgeoisie and proletariat into a single class, and it separates the bourgeoisie from the bourgeois state.

This is literally what no material analysis does to a mf.

I meant specifically geopolitics, like the first libertarian of Poland and successful grifter Janusz Korwin Mikke have the best takes on geopolitics of all Polish mainstream and semi-mainstream politicians. Which isn't much to be honest it mostly meant rest of them have unconditional reflex of hating Russia and bootlicking USA, but still. Also every time he is about to get elected he staves off the danger with praising Hitler or something similar - he does that purposefully because actually getting elected is bad for his grift, and to the point it became a meme in Poland.
