Leftists are so edgy and the actual offensives every time we offend chuds it makes national news.
We literally exist and that’s enough to ragebait 99% of the population, and we make headlines when we insult chuds back. Remember the legendary crashout of ‘ok boomer’ and “gammon”? If we can convince fascists that “skibidi” is a slur for white people, it will make headlines.
Please. I am begging for the left to have its own 4chan or any other cultural mafia, the crashouts will be gold.

God I love you guys. Don't get near me without a respirator, but god I love you guys.
Nah, thats leftypol
No worries there
I don't go anywhere without an n95, a extendable riot baton and a hilarious baseball cap
Thank you for your service 🫡
I know this is a shitpost but I was thinking the other day if there is ever any use for an extendable baton as a self defense weapon and I feel like the answer is no. My understanding is that if its use were legally justifiable then you're already in a situation where you are in grave danger. And the baton would let you hurt someone but not really disable their attack if they were determined to getcha. Whereas pepper spray would temporarily disable them, hard, while also not putting you in legal jeopardy if you were a bit too quick to use it. If I'm wrong lemme know cuz I'm totally the kind of rube who could be convinced to buy an asp or collapsible baton or whatnot.
Also Brace Belden says he carries a sap which is pretty funny and also a point in favor of bludgeoning weapons.
Thr law will never protect and always punish you.
So ask the real question: what's the funniest self defense weapon you could get real utility out of?
I always liked those little self-defense pens
They're basically just a very pointy rod
I could see myself jabbing someone's throat real good and screaming "THE PEN IS MIGHTIER, THE PENIS MIGHTIER!"
Add a hip thrust and I'm in.
Lol that's not where I thought you were going with this, okay uhh how about granddad's sporterized Mauser M18 with a $2,000 scope?
You've already considered effectiveness. Legality will never be on your side. I'm reminding you of the things that really matter.
I don't think collapsible batons are very good. Unless the telescopic part is really sturdy and the end of it is really heavy, basically just making it a medieval mace, it's going to be mildly annoying at best, and picking up a random brick off the ground and throwing it would probably be more effective.
My understanding of a lot of that "self-defense" gear is that it is made to trick rubes who are scared of "crime" (
) to buy bullshit that doesn't actually work, but it's ok, because the nightmare scenario Fox news has planted in their heads doesn't actually happen in the real world, so the company doesn't need to be worried about getting sued when their product doesn't work.
Any of that "tacticool" mall ninja shit is never actually going to be effective, you'd be better off carrying either a knife or a gun (as long as it is completely legal of course). I don't know about how effective pepper spray stuff is, but fumbling with a bag and the cap and then making sure you're aiming the spray end at your attacker, all while they're coming at you seems like it would not be very effective either, though with practice and making sure you can stay cool in a crisis and not panic it would probably be fine. That's the biggest part really, not panicking, calmly assessing the situation. Sometimes the most effective defence against a mugging is to just take out your wallet and toss it at them and run away. It sucks, but it's way better than getting stabbed.
I've always maintained that the most effective form of self defense training is to go to the track and do sprints. It's not flashy but 99/100 people (including cops) either can't or won't keep up with you if you've trained your running speed.
Yep, being able to outrun people chasing you is never not a useful skill to have.
the real secret though is that most people won't even bother to chase you. They'll see you take off, maybe chase for 100m or so, then decide it's not worth it.
I knew it, the true left 4chan was the Hexbear comrades we made along the way
The fact that you actually pointed to this place and not leftypol is the reason Zinn made that comment lol.
