    Well, I will be donating to David Hogg’s org mentioned in the article from here on out, instead of the Democratic Party.

        Yeah, it’s important to remember that Hogg has only talked about his desire to see younger voices, which doesn’t necessarily equate to progressive, and the only issue I know he has strong beliefs on is gun control. Thar doesn’t mean we shouldn’t give the DNC hell for the rat-fucking they have time, but we should be cautious in case he endorses any young Abundance Dems.

            I know it’s not rational, but the more fascistic the government gets, the less interested in gun control I am.

                Well, if your plan is to defend you home from a fascistic government’s intrusion, you’ll be killed in a hail of gunfire. But if your plan is to take up arms against a fascistic government, you’ll be killed by predator drones the first time you step into the open.
