Time to break free of traditional political ideological labeling and divisions. Time to abandon old, divisive sociopolitical labels like "liberal" and "conservative".

A new political party based on a vastly, commonly held virtures lends itself to embrace over 66% of Americans, and it clearly embraces progressive principled thinking. In the most ideal American sense of unity, a political party should not be able to be defined or placed as "to the left" or "to the right" of where the Democratic or Republican parties currently are. Just let it exist organically based on present-day principled thinking. The American Progressive Majority.

As an American the idea of living somewhere where gun violence isn't part of the background noise of society sounds idyllic. But the cops have guns and are all too gleeful to use them. And the neonazis and right wing militias are armed to the teeth. And so I should have a gun too so there's a chance that some of them face consequences.

But we need to remember what our aim is when it's all done because guns did help us get here

Agreed. I was never into gun ownership until MAGA. I just realized how stupid and evil people in the US are. My state happens to have very VERY loose gun laws, nearly wild west level actually, so I will just take advantage of those laws as a deterrent.
