look i get the main point and i’m not trying to wellactually here, but that droll saying is actively misleading, it’s a motivational motto from a 12-stepper in the 1970s and has nothing to do with any definition of insanity
gun horror isn’t madness: it’s purposeful cruelty and willful ignorance. relating gun law obstruction to actual well-intentioned humans whose sense of reality is broken just diffuses causality and blames the victims (us) of greedy gun sellers
@KristenWixx @breadandcircuses
the gun lobby is doing the same thing over and over again precisely because it delivers the same results
blaming society in general is their tactic
blaming the mentally ill is their tactic
blaming human nature for their own greed and cruelty and corruption is their tactic
