Theoretically that’s what the 2A guns are meant to be for…
But doesn’t really work out that way when the adversary is your own Government, who has access to very arguably the best armed police force and military in the world, and is more than willing to turn those on you.
The reason it doesn’t work out that way is because we aren’t organized. Yeah, sure, a lot of Americans are armed, but they’re armed and alone. The intention behind the second amendment was that groups of citizens would form their own local militias and effectively be a distributed standing army ready to defend their liberty at a moment’s notice, but the pervasive culture of individualism has twisted the second amendment into something else.
Eh, idk. There’s at least a handful of notable Nazi militia group bust-ups in America’s history. Like yeah, it was built by slavers, but there’s different kinds of bad, and pro big state fascism is actually very very far removed from the ideals of the people that founded this country.

You’re mistaken. There are armed militias. And they all support Trump.
Yeah, but they hunt down and destroy militia groups when we try to do that.
At least any of the ones that aren’t Nazis. In the past they hunted those down too, but we let the foxes into the hen house so now they get to stay.
The foxes were already in the henhouse, because they were the ones who built the henhouse in the first place.

Theoretically the 2A is for a big well organised militia to oppose outside powers and to ensure the US doesn’t need a big standing army
Yes, but most people ignore that part of the amendment.
