I find the effervescent glee with which the (mostly white dudes) gun world sneers at women and people of color who say stupid shit like this to be bothersome. There’s an extra level of enthusiasm beyond when white dudes say similar shit. It gets to me.
They almost always choose to single out women first, especially women of color. It is a feature, not a bug.
I'm not saying she's ignorant because of her skin color. she's ignorant full stop. why would you think any of this is because of racism? she's an elected official from Texas with a demonstrated ignorance on guns spouting lies. where does race come in at all?

I didn't accuse you of anything. Just pointing out that most of the right-wing videos and memes attack Shiela Jackson Lee (TX), Frederica Wilson (FL), Maxine Waters (CA), and, now, AOC/Omar/Tlaib. When the Dem men say idiotic things, we laugh about it here on this forum. I don't see that same scrutiny from the right-wing.
It is an unfortunate human failing that a full pocketbook often groans more loudly than an empty stomach.
