    Edgy leftists forget that the “treading” in question is state oppression and ergo “I’ll tread where I please” is openly signaling your intention to be the boot in an authoritarian nightmare country part 83,737,478,392,929.

    Look I find the gadsen spamming as annoying as anyone else but for the fucking love of god stop pretending like them being media illiterate is a valid excuse for y’all to act media stupid.

    Where’s the gator version that makes it into F.A.F.O? Why don’t we get more turnabouts like that anymore‽ Just anything that implies the maker actually goddamn understands what they’re working with and isn’t just going for the perceived easiest “no u!” to an annoyingly overused piece of media?

      Your “state oppression” is my “collecting taxes, enacting gun legislation, providing public services and enforcing age of consent laws” and to tell you the truth that sounds pretty good to me

        No, my state oppression is the police sanctioning my family being killed for not being right wing enough you fucking gaslighty lunatic.

        Especially right now, not everyone worried about this country becoming an authoritarian hellscape is worried about common sense gun reform or minimum standards of medical care, some of us are worried about the fact that the guy who set a lynch mob on the capital is a breath away from having the legal authority to do it next time, and being so damned flippant about Anti-Authoritarian messages really doesn’t make me think you’re taking that very real threat seriously enough.

        Fuck all the way off and choke on it if you’re gonna go out of the way this hard for the sake of defending a stupid turn of imagery that doesn’t signal anything except that you feel smug about identifying yourself as a probable bootlicker to be clinging this much to “Imma step on the snek all I want!”

        It’s not clever. It’s not cute. Especially in today’s day and age, it’s just fucking tone deaf.

          What.the.fuck.are.you.talking.about. Have you not clocked that your comment comes off as if you’re a classic libertarian? If that’s not what you intended, take a goddamn internet break and work on your communication skills
