[Brain Hole] So this series is actually a satire on gun rights?

When I watched the third part, I suddenly felt that the so-called "Purge Day" was not a reflection of gun rights in modern American society? On the surface of the cleansing day, except for the privileged class (officials above tenth rank), everyone has the right to kill each other legally, reflecting the apparent "equality" that everyone can carry a gun. However, in fact, the purge day has become a good opportunity for a small number of organized perverts (masked people) to slaughter the underclass (a generation of black people) and vent their discordant relationships (a generation of neighbors). The fact that individual sociopaths rely on automatic weapons to inflict mass casualties is highly consistent. The protagonist’s family in a generation is the middle class with the most sense of security other than the privileged class, and has complete security measures. The rich and middle class can move to safer areas and buy a lot of safety equipment - many American TV shows and movies - to defend themselves, but the poor can only endure "violent neighborhoods", and it is said that the police rarely even patrol the slums), on the other hand, even having such A middle-class family with full security equipment is also threatened, perhaps reflecting a growing sense of middle-class insecurity?

In fact, if you think about it carefully, isn't the setting of the purge day as hypocritical as the right to own a gun? On the surface, everyone is equal. In fact, most of the good people in society do not need such rights at all (except for hunting, but shotguns are not exactly the same as guns in the general sense), so they have become a very small number of psychological shady people to vent and low-level crimes. A hotbed for the authorities to become a tool for the authorities to divert social conflicts? (Although I am extremely suspicious of the setting in the movie that the crime rate is greatly reduced due to the setting of the cleaning day)

Unlike the general self-defense equipment such as anti-wolf spray and electric shock, I think that a gun is essentially an offensive weapon, especially an automatic weapon. very. It's hard to imagine the need for the average inhabitant to have automatic weapons (the overthrow of tyranny and the Red Dawn, etc., can stop). In fact, the number of innocent people killed by shootings every year is far more than the number of gangsters killed in self-defense. At the same time, it has caused a lot of abuse of police power. Only Americans can measure the gains and losses.

It seems that there are some political dramas in this short review, hurry back and continue to watch __________________________________________________________

After reading the third part, I can only say that I only serve the American Emperor because of my self-deprecation. The Confederacy + Templars + Nazis, white elitism combined with mutant Christianity, this is so black and cold. Of course, it goes without saying that the bottom black + immigrant shoulders the shoulders of morality and assists the white people to legally seize power through universal democracy. Although there are three households in Chu, and Qin must be killed by Chu, the American emperor still has such a strong spirit of social criticism, and there are so many voters who support Sanders in reality.

Also what is the opportunism of independent senators + pro-black white women? 2333 In fact, it doesn't have to be that way, Sanders was doomed to lose the primary the moment he ran for the election. Just like the comments on the Nice incident seen on a certain network, "the people are still unable to wake up"
