r/tuesday This lady's not for turning Dec 02 '24

Semi-Weekly Discussion Thread - December 2, 2024

INTRODUCTION

/r/tuesday is a political discussion sub for the right side of the political spectrum - from the center to the traditional/standard right (but not alt-right!) However, we're going for a big tent approach and welcome anyone with nuanced and non-standard views. We encourage dissents and discourse as long as it is accompanied with facts and evidence and is done in good faith and in a polite and respectful manner.

PURPOSE OF THE DISCUSSION THREAD

Like in r/neoliberal and r/neoconnwo, you can talk about anything you want in the Discussion Thread. So, socialize with other people, talk about politics and conservatism, tell us about your day, shitpost or literally anything under the sun. In the DT, rules such as "stay on topic" and "no Shitposting/Memes/Politician-focused comments" don't apply.

It is my hope that we can foster a sense of community through the Discussion Thread.

IMAGE FLAIRS

r/Tuesday will reward image flairs to people who write an effort post or an OC text post on certain subjects. It could be about philosophy, politics, economics, etc... Available image flairs can be seen here. If you have any special requests for specific flairs, please message the mods!

The list of previous effort posts can be found here

It’s so funny seeing redditors say this guy was a “pro” when he didn’t even have enough common sense to think his subsonic rounds would require a lighter recoil spring so his gun would cycle.

Ban subsonic rounds when?

But really, there's a lot of stuff people just don't know, even people (somewhat) familiar with guns. The last time I was buying ammo I had to explain at length to the guy working the department that I was looking for 22 long and not 22 long rifle.

I had a similar experience when I went to go ask the guy at the counter if they had any 7.62x51mm(M80 Ball) or .308 150grn FMJ ammo and he just looked me like I was asking for ammunition for an AK where showed me a shelf of 7.62x39mm. After giving up hope, a coworker told me about a store closer to me that I never heard of where I walked in and the guy at the counter knew him his stuff and sold me a 500rnd can of M80 Ball. Now I have a well fed M1A.
