I don't understand comments like this. Obviously a lot of gun nuts are the fascists, but what are you expecting from leftist gun nuts? you expect them to be leaving public comments on lemmy, a platform which is surely being ingested into palantir, about their plans or intentions to use shoot federal agents?

what do you WANT to hear? Do you want to hear leftist gun owners who might be plotting to do the highly illegal, guaranteed to be extremely high profile, guaranteed to incite overwhelmingly disproportionate response from the fascists, things you might want them to do to tell you about them in advance in public? What would be the point of that?
