CW: US Culture, US Gun Culture, Guns
The amount of confederate flag, thin blue lie, own the liberal, punisher skull, 2nd amendment, don't tread on me, come and take them, toxic masculinity surrounding firearms products and information is such a high barrier for entry for someone who has actively disdained, derided, and been scared of for their whole life.
Also, gun website design makes me want to cry. Or shoot someone. So, working as intended?

@kelseyhusky I told you my story right? Where for a while there I bought gun magazines for art reference, and they'd be like "hey! Today was sunny, so we went to the range and fired this a vintage Enfield 303 to find out if they were good" and I'd be cool with that?
And then I didn't really look at gun magazines for a decade after moving to the Bay Area until I had to poop in y'all's house during games, so I was reading Val's gun magazines and they were all "best handguns to cack the hundreds of intruders who will definitely show up at your house at 2 AM."

@Leucrotta That tracks. They haven't gotten much better. Youtube is worse cause if you click on the wrong video, suddenly the Algorithm has taking your suggested videos on the front page in directions you never wanted it to go.
