I really only give a shit about leafland most of the time (and even then not really all that deep into politics lol) but I've come to the conclusion that to get people angry online I need to say undeniable truths instead of my usual make shit up approach
Post undeniable truths that'd get wingcucks of either side angry

It's hard because authentic wingcucks tend to outright reject facts that make them angry.
"America has more gun deaths per capita than Mexico or Venezuela" is a true statement, but say this to an ammosexual and watch them chimp out like DDR just tried to ban their bump stocks again.
For the other side of the aisle, try telling someone that approximately 30 of the 1100ish people killed by US police last year were unarmed black people.

Gun deaths include suicides, and I suspect the mix of suicides vs. gun kills by other people may make the Mexican/Venezuelan situations less appealing than the US one.

So America is a violent shithole and also American men are kitties who rush for the easy way out at the first sign of hardship.

Nah, you're just substantially more likely to be killed against your will with a gun in Mexico or Venezuela, even if you were right about the gun death rate being the same/higher in the US, which it is not.
Kinda convenient to leave out "per capita" adjustments when comparing with much smaller population countries, isn't it?
You're four times as likely to die by gun in Venezuela in general, and at least eight times as likely to die against your will by gun there. (We know Venezuela is under 2.4 gun suicides per 100k because the proportion isn't high enough to chart.)
You're hand-waving an order of magnitude difference in gun murder rates by baking your analysis. "Indisputable facts"

Is it true how much the capita drops once you remove like 2 cities? I've seen that a bunch and it always seemed kinda fishy.
A good one for Europeans is pointing out that most European countries aren't even in the top 10 worst states for GDP per capita. I think Germany barely didn't make it

This dashboard I just found supports that, but idk. St. Louis does have an insanely high murder rate, but there are also places like Albuquerque, Baltimore, and Stockton that don't have as high a rate of gun murders but have well above average total murder rates and even higher rates of total violent crime. I'm getting off topic but basically there are lots of dangerous shitholes in the US and it's not strictly an issue of black crime like rightoids try to frame it. I'm not anti gun by any means but a lot of burgers on both sides of the argument are totally incapable of having a sober discussion on the facts.
