42. I get that vibe here a lot more than I should.

Nov 2021

I feel like I am constantly called crazy for being a Christian, stupid and uneducated for being a rural resident, a gun humper for being pro 2A, and my rights are often referred to as freedumbs.
It is insulting to me as I am a loyal voting Democrat and always will be. I try to just ignore it, but I don't think some people understand the damage they can do with such comments. We are supposed to be inclusive. I fight for what is right and all things Democratic, but it literally makes me wonder if I belong here sometimes.
