    they are just more loud about their guns.

    Liberal gun owners tend to

    1. Not make gun ownership one of the core tenants of their personality

    2. Don’t tend to make a big fuss about their guns because we don’t want to be associated with right wing ammosexual nutjobery.

      Owning a gun or liking guns is not an identity.

      There’s a lot of people that have to identify by the things they ‘like’ in weird ways. Being enthusiastic about cars is not an identity.

              Ok. Sure. Act like me and my nuerodivergent family doesn’t have to struggle and have support to do things most people don’t have to even think about. “It’s society that has a problem, not me (/s)” Nuerodivergence isn’t a blessing. Not to me, and not what my family members on the ASD side of things say.

              You don’t get to identify as things you like. Period.
