    That person deleted their account, made a new one, and deleted that one after posting their firearms collection that featured a sawed off shotgun.

    They have been reported to the FBI.

      Good. And the FBI takes that shit seriously, so that’s awesome.

      What’s sad is how many upvotes it got. And on Lemmy it would have gotten a bunch of upvotes too. Just like every pro-luigi post is upvoted.

      It would probably get upvoted here but that isn’t uncommon to online discourse to either side. Considering it’s in reference to Jan 6 and there is plenty of boomers posting about stringing up politicians because of DOGE findings

      The left is violent by nature. It’s concerning.

      Trump was elected by a democratic vote and they want to overthrow him. Not only did he win the Ec but the popular vote as well.

          The problem is they thought they were the majority and just found out they weren’t. They found out their views are unpopular.

          I don’t view Trump as a true conservative and he still beat Harris even as unpopular as he was.

          The next four years are going to be rough for the left.
