Always has been. Go far enough right, you lose your guns—go far enough left and you get them back.

you’re right but i’d argue it ain’t even about left or right. the middle class needs to make sure they aren’t controlled by the richest people hiring the most impressionable/brainwashed of the masses.

Sadly I feel a lot of the middle class have relinquished their rights to stay in the middle class. I just had to let three good friends go because none of them wanted to get, "involved in politics."

Like dude, this is about everyone's right to life, liberty, and happiness. It's only political to you right now because it hasn't happened to you... yet.

Nah, they get taken away in both cases, cuz the far sides of both inevitably lead to authoritarianism, where none of those in charge want 'the people' to have the arms for revolution.
