Since Trump’s election, gun groups catering to progressives and people of color report a surge in interest as they look to defend themselves in a country that, to them, feels increasingly unstable.

    performatively afraid

    I can’t get over how this is phrased. It feels so dismissive.

            I don’t think someone could have proved your point about performative behavioirs faster than that. They even felt the need to announce their block so no one would miss out on their preformance lmfao.

                Feel like it should be required in High School to learn enough psychology to understand how your brain works. No one is gonna be immune to the peculiarities of the human brain, like the proclivity to narratives you mentioned, or how flalliable memory can be, but being aware those things exist helps so much. You can at lest start to identify patterns.
