    Largely because the left is less interested in hating and killing everyone around them over irrelevant differences. There are many armed leftists, they just don’t cosplay government overthrow or post apocalyptic warlord on a regular basis.

    Also, have you ever tried to organize anarchists?

      Have you gone to your local shooting range? I guarantee you it’s populated by all right wing gun people. If there ever will be a social disruption and it’s one side pitted against another, the blue team will not only be out gunned by overwhelming numbers of red team gun nuts but even the most morbidly obese right wing pieces of shit practice their marksmanship.

        They’re also lazy cowards. Most of them.

          I hope you’re right. But hope doesn’t fucking fix the fear of Orange Man taking over and lining us up against a wall to have the morbidly obese Cleetus Gravy Seal shoot our backs.

          Either you train to resist something that never will happen and lost nothing of value training up for it, or will roll over and die because you never prepared for the worst.

        That’s libertarian, not liberal. Similar stance on social legislation, but vastly different economic ideologies.

        Edit: Why the downvotes? Anarchists are still on board with civil rights and personal liberty, right? Did Anarchists suddenly start supporting tax funded civil services, public education, and public assistance programs?
