Lately dumb civnats and leftypol shill as well as craposhithouse posters claim that leftists are not actually anti-gun and use the following quote from Marx to prove it:
>"Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary. The destruction of the bourgeois democrats’ influence over the workers, and the enforcement of conditions which will compromise the rule of bourgeois democracy, which is for the moment inevitable, and make it as difficult as possible – these are the main points which the proletariat and therefore the League must keep in mind during and after the approaching uprising."
The issue is that Marx was stating this in the communist manifesto which is explictly calling for an armed revolution. He was not talking about private gun ownership, nor was he even talking about a right to bear arms. He says nothing about what would happen to the guns owned by the workers after the revolution.
So what did Lenin do after the revolution? He confiscated all the arms owned by peasants and imposrd draconian gun laws.
EVERY Marxist regime has had extremely strict gun laws.
Pro-gun rights is a right-wing position and has always been one. "Pro gun" leftists like Bernie are anti-gun and support an AWB. There are no exceptions.
Politics belong on Jow Forums. Although this relates to guns, it is revolving around their politics and it is unfit for this board. See the sticky.

I'm a communist and I'm pro gun. If the proletariat aren't armed people like you can crawl out of their holes unabated.

>See the sticky. You fail to pass as a regular here just as badly as you fail to ass as a woman in real life. Rule enforcement has always been arbitrary and rare.
True. Sort of how commies have never been able to make a functioning country. Their retard ideology simply can't allow it.
Zachary Sanders
Obviously. Keeping the workers armed is the fascist position.
Jace Ramirez
You should consider Strasserism. Or NazBol gang.
Lucas Gutierrez
>Keeping the workers armed is the fascist position I dont think so m8. facists are just as anti gun as leftists
Ryan Cook
And capitalist places aren't doing this too?
Levi Lee
Which is why you should go to pol

Kill yourself
Bentley Watson
Then you grab the guns after the revolution. Fucking kill yourself leftist fuck. Not a single marxist regime had lax gun laws. You need a monopoly on force to abolish private entetprise and property.
Hudson Wood
actually hitler loosened gun laws massively
Lucas Wright
Wrong. Hitler improved gun laws. For the people who weren't just previously involved in a communist revolt anyway (Jews).

Marx and Lenin called for a permanent revolution. Stalin disarmed the people, he was a blatantly authoritarian tyrant who doesn't represent the anarchist aspirations of communists and other leftists. Democrats aren't left wing. Sanders would be considered center right in any sane country. Every actual leftist who's read any theory at all is pro-gun
