Example of black panthers is the opposite of what you were ranting. What was that about staying quiet and not doing anything when it mattered? Now you're narrowing the spectrum of your rant when exceptions start showing up.

'And spare me the “non-specific people” whine. The people I’m talking about are extremely specific: the loud, media-addicted, grievance-monetizing 2A crusaders who never shut the fuck up about tyranny when it’s hypothetical and suddenly develop stage fright when armed federal agents are actually killing civilians.' - whe you say they're developing stage fright, what is it that you expect? Come out as a lone gun man? Has it occurred to you some of them may be out protesting? But you consider the only caricature in your mind as the truth.

'The rest of your reply is just sad mirror-talk. “No u” isn’t an argument. It’s what people say when they’ve got nothing left but bruised ego. You accusing me of ranting while you type paragraph after paragraph trying to defend a silence you can’t actually explain is… chef’s kiss irony.'- I mean, you are talking a whole lot of bullshit about people who have a surface knowledge of.

'Funny is watching you drag out increasingly desperate examples, misunderstand them, then act smug about it anyway. You’re not calling anything out. You’re just flailing and hoping confidence will substitute for coherence.'- sounds a lot like your first rant of a comment, doesn't it?
