@divVerent @enigmatico @theorytoe there is a line in one of their armament papers about "civilian ownership of firearms threatens the power monopoly of the state"
which is the whole point of why the USA is the only country in the world that said you *will* have guns. literally we put it there because tyrants always come to disarm free men.

@icedquinn @theorytoe @divVerent @enigmatico i much more fear the state than my fellow men. the overwhelminh majority isn't criminal, the state has to be by definition.
@bonifartius @theorytoe @divVerent @enigmatico the state does not have to be criminal by definition. the divine right of the state actually comes from food distribution.
when the population is too numerous for foragers they need active management of the food supply. this means industrial processes need coordinated and bread needs to be distributed. The word Lord literally comes from Bread Lord or he who distributed the loaf (this is also where "give us this day our daily bread" is referencing)
the problem is that power magnifies and so condensing authority in to a small position greatly arms sociopaths; while decent people don't even conceive of ways to abuse bread distribution.

@icedquinn @theorytoe @divVerent @enigmatico i don't see why food distribution requires violating the natural rights of people. if the people were armed, they could very well defend themselves against the few criminals. they need even more arms to defend a tyrannical dictator taking power of something state.
