On the origin of rubber(clad) bullets, repost with CW
Rubber bullets were invented by the British Ministry of Defence for use against the civilian population in Ireland. With these lethal and deadly bullets the British Security Forces killed 17 people between 1972-1989, 8 of those were children and all but one were Catholics.
The PSNI still uses rubber bullets to this day.

ACAB, Sarcasm, Capitalism.
If the police don't want to be Defunded and restricted by laws that severely punish Brutality, they should just Not Be Cops and go get a job somewhere Else in our great and vibrant capitalist economy!
Why, there's all sorts of jobs Violent, overweight, aggressive men can do in our modern society!
They just don't get Authority and Legal Plot Armor as an Accountant, or a cashier or construction worker, so when they abuse their spouse, they're gonna go to jail.
USpol, masculinity in the USA
Something about the current iteration of the #BlackLivesMatter movement that only just struck me? The number of men--young and old, of all races--who have told the press that the video of George Floyd's death made them cry. Now, AMAB folks who grow up in the USA are trained from birth that "men don't cry", and indeed, that most emotional expression is "unmanly". But seeing a real murder? That broke things open.
Normalize men expressing emotions in healthy ways.
@Waces oh god it's me.
@orkuduk@snouts.online @Felthry Yeah we solved that issue by having a goddamn Arsenal of talismans, foci, and other specializations.
Shit I just realized that metaphysically speaking we fill the same role as we do IRL: Toolmaker/Prototyper.
Magic stuff gets made when there's a Need for it.
@orkuduk@snouts.online @Felthry Join it with other harmonic stuff. Some of the most potent totems we have just kinda fell together from... Stuff.
But the Right stuff, ye ken?
@Felthry @orkuduk@snouts.online I mean, my staff is off a bradford pear that concussed my stupid ass.
When Magic happens, it happens hard. That being said, I'm more metal turning than forging, At The Moment.
As for not being fash? Pfff. Cops are Pigs.

@hyratel @DragonNamedRedd@snouts.online Yuppp. It's like a accidentally knocked myself to the Sweet Spot where my body actually knows what to do with it's hormonal levels.
Oh, and all my sexual dysfunction is Gone. I have a regular feeling of needing to be Railed, but that was pre-existing.
@DragonNamedRedd@snouts.online Oh I mean I get the boob hurt, got more butt and belly, I'm super smooth now, my BO isn't 'Rancid Dude' anymore, my Bipolar and Anger management issues Evaporated, and my acne is gone.
I wasn't prepared for the massive muscle growth, or all the masculine affirmations. Or like, suddenly being able to Appreciate more masc stuff.
...Also, my beard is super soft now, used to be like Wire Brush.
