    Don’t get me wrong, I’m for gun control. I just believe that if we lived in some utopia with zero mental health issues, it wouldn’t be an issue regardless.

      Therapy and meds can’t fix poverty perpetrated by the ruling class.

      But I generally agree.

      And did you know utopia means “place that cannot exist” while eutopia means “a perfect place”. Not correcting you, I just think it’s funny that euphemistic drift has flopped it fucky.

        That semantic drift happened in the 1600s. It’s meant “any perfect place” for 500 years.
