.agree

i think religion is a symptom of humans natural tribal desire for heirarchy combined with the best explanation of the universe a bunch of stone age people could create, thats been perpetuated throughout history by the mutually beneficial relationship between religion and state

there literally wasn't anything close to a better explanation available, there are probably more atheists alive now than in the rest of human history

its an empty hull of blind faith and god of the gaps arguments

creationist arguments after you boil off the long dead bullshit you're just left with "look how pretty the sunrise is" etc and misuse of the words "chance" and "theory"

i had an interesting chat with an ex-atheist catholic traditionalist on poldare and basically all his arguments were based on a fundamental denial of objective truth in favor of his feels

much along the same ideological lines of early fascism, unironic feels before reals

his justification was decidedly vague shit like "experiences i couldnt explain" etc

call of duty?

muslims pretending like their culture is compatible is so awkward

a mythology created by a 7th century pedophile barbarian in the middle of a desert shoehorned into normie memes

of course not

wanna be woke on muslims in the US?

reminder: all of these facts for the *non*-muslim populations are zero. literally none.

The Guardian decided to poll muslims on whether or not homosexuality is morally acceptable, they got 0 yes out of 500 responses.

these are the people the left hold in higher regard than center left moderates

new wintersun album is out

Imagine these NEETs vs. literally any right wing group

I have HIDs and they can ignite flash paper at short range.

I need new bulbs tho

$70 each 😬

the way the lights pop up when you turn the car on is 👌

is what?

@franti what is unhindet

also that shop looks really bad security-wise

lol how?

to be perfectly fair if you are not an american or you've never been to america you've got literally no idea how our gun culture works

and its not that outside observers can't be accurate its that you will never ever ever see a fair portrayal of american gun culture anywhere outside of the US

i mean even in the US the myth that we don't do background checks is still common

99% of everything you are told about us is a lie

first define what "gun culture" even is

its not like gun owners live in camps like lepers on the outskirts of town we're regular people everywhere

a subset of the larger population not exterior to it

several reasons

the biggest factor is the fucking media

think about it, if youre a lonely deranged asshole the quickest, easiest way to get your face plastered onto every TV in america for a week straight is to shoot up someplace

both are weapons

its purpose is decided by the person using it.

to think that the manufacturers intended purpose is in any way relevant is ridiculous

how about recreational shooting since thats 99% of the ammunition expended in the US

why do effectively nonlethal calibers like .22LR wildly outsell large bore calibers?

most people own guns exclusively for recreation

or hunting, or defense

yes but thats like saying we should ban fire extinguishers to prevent fires.

Why is having a gun for home defense a bad thing then?

your argument hinges on guns being used "for killing" and that somehow justifies banning them despiute the non sequitur

the number of guns is literally irrelevant

if you're safe and responsibe with one gun you will continue being safe and responsible with a stockpile of them

lol how?

do gunsafes not exist in your country? I can buy them at fucking costco.

if I use a shotgun with blanks to run a boat-to-boat line charge is it still a weapon?

whether or not guns are weapons - btw legally, anything used to assault someone is a weapon - isn't important

even so, what is your point?

at which point does a bladed weapon stop being a weapon then?

what is the distinction?

no you've already ignored the laws

im talking logically

im not interested in whatever obligatory number the bureaucrats have decided to set

lmao so we should just average up all the EU's draconian knife laws for the one true answer? what a laugh.

heres a super easy fix: stop treating people like they don't have individual agency.

I literally dont care what switzerland does

i think you've just invented argumentum ad europa

lmao sure my dude

a cave-dwelling american troglodyte like myself cannot possibly comprehend the technological and societal bliss that is europe

A gun is a tool
