This is what a no-star T-doll looks like. This one actually debuffs your other dolls. If you Oath this doll, it cuts to a screen of the other T-Dolls and SF lynching both of you, and you deserve it.
As context: Hi-Point has a contest going to pick the name for their next 9mm pistol and they got Boaty McBoatface'd. They then attempted to remove it from the list of contestants because apparently their PR people confused the term with "skeet". A couple other companies started offering "yeet cannon" engraved AR receivers, and H&K's PR people then got in on the action and claimed that the Mk23 was "the original yeet cannon" and told Hi-Point to do it and now the YC-9 is back in the running against whatever wins in the second round of voting.
I wouldn't be surprised if this lass can have insane crit hits if she ever lands one as well as be incredibly tough as nails as Hi-Point apparently makes them gritty as hell
I actually quite like the character design tbh, apart from the whole Yeet thing.
The Punisher skull and 3%er (anti-government militia/domestic terrorist org) patch are kinda ehhhhhhhhhh but since the artist is British I suspect they might not know the full context on them.

I thought it was meant to be a reference to the 1 percenters, aka Hell's Angels.
I want this T-doll so badly now. She is like a better CZ-75 (ಸヮಸ)

Militias typically are not anti-government, they are simply against any lawlessness or threats to the country, foreign or domestic. Many LE departments and local governments actually have regular participation from them for things such as emergency preparedness/response (big influence during the past few years with natural disasters) and law enforcement. Depending on the area, many crime tips can come from the militias as it may not be legal or prudent for an agency to run an operation, but if a non-LE element collects the intel, then it can be brought to court along with other factors to get something actionable. Probably the most well known militias are doing work along the southern border to stop illegal aliens and drug trafficking. Many in the active militias are composed of former LE and Mil guys. Of course, there are militias that don't do jack shit. Typically the easy way to spot a poser vs a real militia is that a fake one will have ranks, do the marching, etc. While a real militia will have regular schedules for training, meetings or calls with representatives in the local government, participation in community, and members will typically hold active credentials in first aid, EMT, amateur radio, or firearm training.
The media of course loves reporting on militas as domestic terrorists, but these days their opinion doesn't have much weight with their current narrative of protecting real domestic terrorists like BLM and Antifa, especially hypocritical since many reporters were actually protected or escorted by various milita during those riots.
Survivalists and "preppers" are typically where anti-government ideology resides (during the Obama admin it was composed of republicans against Obama, and now with Trump it is composed of democrats against Trump), which was pretty much an evolution of the old hippie "utopia" projects. Even then, they are a really small portion of the overall emergency preparedness community. Most people just want to have stuff stored away so they are economically stable in case they lose a job or lose the house due to an accident. Basically a tangible form of insurance.

3% is supposed to be a reference to the American Revolution where only 3% of colonists fought for independence. Personally I don't like that title since it is misleading. 3% fought, but another 30% supported the revolution through auxiliary and intelligence tasks. That latter part is often much more important since you could have a company full of SOF that have over a hundred thousand dollars of training in each one of them, and they are useless if they don't have the supplies or the guidance to do what they need to do.
EDIT: Wow, judging from the downvotes I guess there are a lot of anti-gov guys on danbooru, or wannabe militia members.

Hmm, more downvotes = hidden comment? Never knew that's how Danbooru works. Thank you for the paragraphs, quality info. I second your liking to the design btw, I have no knowledge on the whole "Yeet Cannon" situation but her design is gorgeous.

A small number of people properly organized and motivated can cause a considerable amount of damage. You mention the American revolution, but they're all like that really. Another case in point; the Communist Revolution. Lots of isolated rural communities, maybe as small as a few families, they stand no chance against roaming bands of Bolsheviks, who are better armed and coordinated, and all looking to stick it to "the man" even if he's just a peasant farmer who's got it slightly better than his neighbors, all a pretext to raping and looting and ultimately taking over the country.
It doesn't matter if you're outnumbered a hundred to one if the opposition doesn't want to fight and you do. And after the fact, you can brag about it, how the odds were totally stacked against you and how glorious and righteous you were.

That is true. It only takes a few people to start the herd mindset that "those guys are doing it, why can't I?". However I meant more in the context to how when fighting for a specific cause not just for pillaging, you need a lot of auxiliary support in order to coordinate your forces well not just to keep them supplied but to make sure they aren't going up against the wrong people. It is easy to just cause chaos, it is a lot harder to end up with a desirable societal outcome. Additionally, some "militia" guys think it is all about fighting and guns and that others that aren't deep in the Gecko45 lifestyle are inferior to them. The militia is at the core is really about community service, and that often doesn't involve using a gun. Emergency response during natural disasters for example, many people had supplies and skills to go back in and help their neighbors (who didn't choose to evacuate when warned) while they waited for the state/federal response. Militia and other decentralized civilian efforts are basically the last line of defense, if an armed response is needed then something went terribly wrong a long time ago. People should be working to avoid that situation in the first place, not just waiting and preparing for the "next revolution" or a civil war. Even if you have victory in those WORL situations, you don't "win" if you are fighting over what you already had. Winning when it comes to a militia really doesn't mean conquering, it means protecting people, order, and rule of law wherever the government fails to do so, not necessarily fighting the government just because they are the gov.

It technically isn't always hidden, since you can change your comment rating threshold in the settings (or you might need a chrome extension, I am using Danbooru EX). Like mine is at -9999 because I want to see all the comments. The way it was explained to me is that some users absolutely do not want to see any controversy or discussions on danbooru at all, just positive messages so they might even set their threshold to +x rather than 0.
I think I like her because she looks a lot like Uzume from Neptune, and she has the chibi dab as a victory pose. Plus red haired girls are my weakness, I'm marrying one IRL. To this day I still don't understand Yeet, despite reading the page on KYM, but it sounds like something invented by a shitposter, so I approve. :)
