Not really. The guy with 25 guns can arm 24 friends. The state would hardly be arming people, the military would be directly involved on one side or the other. A civil war between left and right would absolutely not work out well for the left.
The stats are on number of owners, not guns owned
Statistically not really. I’ve been part of liberal gun groups in the past and it was hard to get any traction. Many of the members were also extremely fuddy and mocked people for having “evil black rifles” rather than their preferred .38 cal revolver and 130 year old bolt action rifle.
Republicans own guns at nearly 3x the rate of Democrats, according to Pew, and only a portion of democrats would be considered “liberal” and even fewer leftist, while nearly all republicans would be considered conservative globally. I would wager a lot of money that the proportion is even more skewed if you were looking at just ARs and other types of guns that would be decently suited for combat rather than grandpappy’s hunting rifle or a rusty old revolver.
Reddit hasn’t been an open place for intelligent discussion in ages, it’s slop to draw in the morons plus propaganda to control their ideology. No one with a brain takes a redditor seriously… So yeah, the remaining people/fleshbots can stay there.
Yeah that’s one of several reasons I host my own plex server, I control my content and don’t have ads shoved in anywhere. Jellyfin also a great option if I wasn’t sharing with friends who wouldn’t be able to use it remotely as easily.
The experience pirating is superior to the paid options now too, smoother and easier to navigate - none of this random series of categories with low budget crap I don’t want, but the algorithm thinks is the only thing I’m interested in so 1000 iterations of horror sci fi it is.
You’re making a baseless assumption that the 24 friends wouldn’t want to fight. Doesn’t open a gun yet doesn’t mean won’t join the fight. Liberal states won’t arm citizens, that’s inconsistent with their core principles. Besides that, they’d end up arming conservatives too because we’d just fake being liberal to get a free gun. Already take advantage of liberal gun buy”back” programs by forcing you idiots to buy pipeguns and shitty broken guns to fund our ammo budget 😂
