This is some closeted Republican shit.

The only freedom that is truly sacred in America is the freedom to exploit the working class for profit.

[-] fozid@feddit.uk 1 points 1 hour ago

Freedom to say what you want to somebody? Freedom to kill somebody? Freedom to hurt somebody? Freedom to go to war with anybody? Freedom to choose to exclude whoever you want from society?

This is some white people shit.

I really dislike this dumbass meme and it just gets worse the longer it's been around. Letting rednecks have guns creates a lot of our problems. Letting Christians be Christians creates a lot of our problems. America is about freedom? Tell that to Black people. Tell that to immigrants. Shit, tell that to people who aren't immigrants but who are having their citizenship challenged because they're the wrong shade. Tell that to women and trans people who need healthcare. America is about freedom for some and not for others, and this meme is for the some.

Rednecks hanging black people from trees is as American as apple pie! Every one ought to have a little bit of freedom (may vary according to location).

Any man who has to say "I am the king" is no true king.

Ask people who posted Charlie Kirk quotes after his death how "free" the US is.

Why the focus on Christians in particular? There are a lot more religions in the US than just Christianity.

Also, a lot fewer people would have something against Christians if Christians quit trying to infringe on everyone else's rights. Gay marriage, abortion, and unnumerable other things are only an issue because Christians make it one.

Before anyone says it, yes, I know that's not all Christians, but it is the "Christians" controlling the government right now. The kind of Christian who doesn't understand or care about the teachings of Jesus.

i wish we could leave religion behind as a species. believing in made up bullshit has held us back for thousands of years, regardless of what flavor of made up bullshit people happen to believe in at the moment. anything positive about religion can be had without the made up bullshit.

I’m guessing the ubiquity.

So brave. Needs updating for things that are more controversial today. Trans rights, open borders, kicking police out of your neighborhood, etc.

[-] yesman@lemmy.world 13 points 4 hours ago

Guns equating to freedom is straight up NRA propaganda. Do we really think people in Australia, the UK, and Japan are oppressed by tyranny?

The 2nd is the only "right" that the lowest government official can execute you for exercising. That's what passes for freedom in America?

[-] A404@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 hours ago

Guns alone wont provide freedom unless you organize

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 28 minutes ago

What, into some kind of, what, a militia?

I mean, I guess so, but what about regulations? Would they be well?

i-think-that Yes obviously because they are states, and they impose capitalist economies on their subjects anarchy

Nah, the lowest government official might execute you for exercising any right or none at all, especially if you're Black or Indigenous. AmeriKKKa

Tyranny of the majority, and of the crown for those 3.

[-] Godort@lemmy.ca 6 points 4 hours ago

This is one of those things where there is a workable middle ground.

There isn't anything inherently wrong with gun ownership, but it should be heavily regulated and require a license which to acquire, requires that you prove you have a fundamental level of safety.

[-] Zier@fedia.io 3 points 4 hours ago

Nice message. However, the whole point of christianity is to prevent everyone from having any fun. Christians are free to enjoy their religion, in PRIVATE.

[-] kboos1@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

The funny thing about Christianity is not all Christians are equal so bringing religion into government leads to hating themselves and they don't realize that they will be the ones to marginalizing themselves.

~~AmeriKKKa~~ Turtle Island should be about freedom. Fuck colonizer trash AmeriKKKa AmeriKKKa AmeriKKKa AmeriKKKa
