>Every time there's a school shooting or spree killing, we're lectured about that being a price we should be willing to pay for our right to keep and bear arms. Every time gun control comes up, we're told that America's well armed militias are the only thing keeping our government from sliding into tyranny, and that all of our rights are vouchsafed by the second amendment.

Americans don't have a representative government, europeans do. Lets be honest, you know in your heart that the vast majority of americans want to stop school shootings, don't you??

Even to this day, a majority of americans are in favor of universal background checks, and an assault weapons ban. Check pew, gallup, anywhere you'd like.

Over 60% of americans when polled, say they want universal healthcare. The difference between american and europe is: over here we don't get what we want, even when the vast majority support it. Over here the cops just shoot us in the face.

>Also the vast majority of Twitter users are American, and Americans aren't exactly quitting it either.

And they should quit too, but right now we're talking about europe.

I also want to circle back and say, portland was not turned into a war zone over george floyd. The protest spanned over a few city blocks, and 99% of the city carried on as normal. You're parroting disgusting propaganda, straight from the mouth of fox news.

Can't you see that we have a media machine that's invested in making the left look violent? Don't believe everything your hear from the american news.

> They were willing to revolt over covid restrictions. They were willing to riot and coup over imaginary communists stealing the election.

Its fitting you bring up these examples as if they weren't proving my point. These events were both largely orchestrated on twitter. Same thing they did in myanmar.

You can help fight against the machine by leaving twitter. Its free. Its easy.
