Its only a flex to extraordinarily insecure (and in some cases paranoid) men.

Your average working Joe who isn’t a MAGA moron looks at this with disgust and a desire to see his ass taxed more heavily.

Your average MAGA cultist dipshit thinks this is peak existence and what all [white] men should strive for, and anything else is subhuman and beta. This is because this appeals to men who are deeply insecure and desperate to compensate for that insecurity by hiding it behind wealth and weapons.

These types of pathetic shitheads aren’t just American, BTW. Cunts like Andrew Tate have a lot of international fans. Just look up the big “free Andrew Tate” protest that occurred in Greece when he was arrested.

I personally think its the idea of “don’t touch me or me and my gang gon’ fuck you up”.

At least that’s what I see after watching newer rap music videos romanticizing old gang war concepts in newer popular hits. Then seeing shitty streamers doing the exact same thing the videos show.

I know it’s not just rap stuff, but that’s just the easiest example that comes to my mind atm.

As an American, I do not understand it at all. I think most of it is just juvenile and they don’t want to be told what to do and like to see shit blow up. Which is fine. I like watching a good action flick and understand it’s a story telling device. But when you go deeper with them it turns into a dumb joke. I really don’t think they think more about it then “come stop me”.

I think it’s a pretty specific (and stupid) sub-culture.

Most Americans I know see being careless with guns as “Darwin award” kind of flex.

I know some gun collectors with valuable collections. Typically a decent portion of the value of the whole collection is tied up in clean secure safe storage: gun locks, gun safes, dehumidifiers, separate amo storage, locking display cases, etc.

As one told me “I still treat guns like toys - I just treat them like really fucking dangerous life threatening toys.”

Gun = power!

Or some such ammosexual nonsense 🤷

A high end custom gun is pretty expensive. So it’s the same kind of flex as showing off an expensive car.

😂

I’ve always wondered the same thing about the guns, also real people with money don’t need to flex, its just the grifters that do this shit.

Yeah, he’s posting this cause his ego is bruised so he wants to remind everyone that he’s cool and rich. He swears. He’s cool and rich everyone, right? Cool and rich…

European with the same condition, here. What are some good remedies for heartburn? (Some that don’t require retroactively eating less, please)

I’m the US, you wouldn’t need to see three different doctors to get some heartburn medication.

Am American. That number must be inflated.

Nah, more like ANDS - American Neuron Deficiency Syndrome
