Yes, semi-automatic, detachable magazine.
Execpt that doesn't live in reality.
So by your own rules, ok. But you can never again call anti-ship weapons used by submarines *"torpedos"* because the term *torpedo* was coined for what we now call naval mines.

2019-09-05 16:39:06 UTC  

I really dont know what this argument gets you other than assuaging your anal retentiveness

2019-09-05 16:39:17 UTC  

Oh, and long arms are now muskets, because "rilfe" is the groove inside the barrel of a gun.
Oh, and... And... And...

2019-09-05 16:39:21 UTC  

He's upset about the term assault weapon

2019-09-05 16:39:37 UTC  

And wants it to just mean assault rifle

2019-09-05 16:39:48 UTC  

Again, it's a shitty metric.

2019-09-05 16:39:51 UTC  

Which is what dems want people to associate it with

2019-09-05 16:40:04 UTC  

And often conflated, unfortunately.

2019-09-05 16:40:52 UTC  

Also everything, including recent legal definitions is a personal metric, if it disagrees with his position

2019-09-05 16:41:09 UTC  

So, you know, the usual

2019-09-05 16:41:15 UTC  

who was it that has a YEET CANNON

2019-09-05 16:41:58 UTC  

Beeman's right. I am. I see both sides weaponizing the term to use *what they want it to mean,* without considering the term... Like calling a shack a house *"because I live there."* (They meant well, but those aren't homes. 😔)

2019-09-05 16:42:47 UTC  
2019-09-05 16:43:20 UTC  

And o really wouldn't call people leftist if I were you Leag.

2019-09-05 16:43:20 UTC  

I have the YEET CANNON G1

2019-09-05 16:43:36 UTC  

YEEEEET

2019-09-05 16:43:54 UTC  

sleigh

2019-09-05 16:44:04 UTC  

Slay!

2019-09-05 16:44:10 UTC  

ho ho ho

2019-09-05 16:44:17 UTC  

I would just abandon the term, as it's politically charged while having no utility outside of that context

2019-09-05 16:44:50 UTC  

Okay.

2019-09-05 16:44:57 UTC  

Legalize is a dirty dirty smearmerchant.

2019-09-05 16:45:12 UTC  

Ban this Mod.

2019-09-05 16:45:15 UTC  

I still question the utility of "left" and "right" tbh

2019-09-05 16:45:33 UTC  

Damn straight!

2019-09-05 16:46:01 UTC  

That's essentially the extent of it. To those that identify as left, right just means things they dont agree with, and vice versa

2019-09-05 16:46:40 UTC  

It's just Communism v.s Facism all over again.

2019-09-05 16:46:58 UTC  

Bring on 2020!

2019-09-05 16:47:11 UTC  

What.

2019-09-05 16:47:21 UTC  

Well communism and fascism are actually real easy to delineate. I assume you mean socialism though, which is still somewhat different if very similar

2019-09-05 16:47:42 UTC  

oof

2019-09-05 16:47:48 UTC  

Quite likely the former.

2019-09-05 16:47:59 UTC  

I think it might be easiest to split socialism and fascism by the goal of the state, but even then people would argue otherwise

2019-09-05 16:48:11 UTC  

Because there are "socialists" who dont want communism

2019-09-05 16:48:33 UTC  

And it's also sort of a hindsight designation

2019-09-05 16:49:35 UTC  

I think it might be because fascism is a purely political designation while socialism is an economic one, really

2019-09-05 16:50:28 UTC  

Socialism is a misguided pathway, regardless. But, yes, terminology does get muddy.

2019-09-05 16:50:38 UTC  

Maybe @Mandatory Carry can explain it.

2019-09-05 16:51:11 UTC  

👀

2019-09-05 16:51:31 UTC  

Socialism is such a broad term nowadays it's almost lost its meaning

2019-09-05 16:51:56 UTC  

Prolly
