You can't overthrow violent oppressors using peaceful means
ID: 4 panels:
-
A self righteous person holds their hand up and says "Violence is never the solution."
-
Stephie replies with a smile "Oh! So you agree that we shouldn't give weapons to the police?"
-
She adds "And that we should dismantle the army?"
-
Stephie is now right up behind the other person, looking angry, saying "Or did you mean that violence is only a solution when it helps maintain the status quo?". The other person looks deeply uncomfortable.

It drives me fucking mad when people arguing for total civilian disarmament double down with "well I think the cops should be disarmed too 😏😏😏". My Sibling In Christ, what do you think is going to happen when you advocate for total disarmament of civilians and police? Civilians are going to be disarmed first, and then cops are going to be disarmed NEVER.
I know the comic isn't just about guns, but this is one instance of that larger pattern.

The comic (or this community) isn't about civilian disarmament at all
I didn't imply they were? I agree with the sentiment of the comic, and it triggered a rant about a specific instance that I've encountered.
Ah, fair enough, I misunderstood.
Bro, the comic is NOT about that. It's tongue in cheek.
