I think the crux of the issue is that guns are used to project power, either through the threat or use of violence

when people try to paint guns as evil, often their real position is "the state should have a monopoly on violence"

when people pretend they just want their guns for hunting often their real position is "I don't trust the state to have a monopoly on violence"

it's analgous to bitcoin - is it used for illicit activities? certainly, the reason people tout/oppose it is not to buy or sell drugs/stop the drug trade however - it's an expression on their political position on the control of money

@pasture fuck, I forgot to check the irony button

@freemo @lucifargundam @zpartacoos ideally the mathematical knowledge should be integrated with the concepts - unfortunately maths is taught as a specialisation rather than a critical component of thinking these days

once a division like that becomes part of the way we teach it's very hard to unstitch again

@pasture oh I suppose you'd rather everyone went to hell
