Even people with private security and millions of dollars still fantasize about castle doctrine gun battles?
Just as the founding fathers intended
I have a hypothesis that burgerland's "everyone should own a gun and be ready to use it at the drop of a hat" culture was cultivated as part of the white yeoman farmer ideal so that the burger regime could offload as much of the genocide work as possible onto the average settler. I think you're more spot on than you intended.
If I remember Settlers right, Sakai basically says that.
One of the best kind of leftist moments is when you come to a conclusion you think is original only to find out someone discovered it decades ago and put it better than you ever could.
It's a nice feeling!
