But we also need weapons of our own to prevent the government from physically fighting us.

And the most important and effective weapon is collective action. The reason people look weird at Americans about gun culture is because alone, you can have as many guns as you want, the police will bash your head in either way. Together, you don’t even need guns, you can cripple the government in a week by just not going to work.

And that ability is incredibly heavily regulated in the US. From our perspective, the US is the country where people don’t have the ability to fight the government.

That said, guns can be good against nazis at your door, but at that point, the government has long failed at taking out the trash.
