The angry and scared conservative mind is always on the lookout for a way to let some hatred loose without it looking bad to the people they care about. That plus the persecution complex is a nasty combination. One they have been intentionally conditioned to have.
I remember hearing old racists in the 90s yearn for the day the race war comes. THEN they were gonna do all the violent stuff they’ve been talking about doing to all them dirty insert-exactly-the-word-you-think-they-saids.
It’s the same thing with everything from gun nut home defense fantasies to “just let them say something to me” warriors acting like somebody is going to hold them back.
Not only is it all hollow bluster and superficial iamverybadass image, but they are pretending to be an even more hateful and violent person than they really are, in order to seem cool. They don’t just act like children. They act like the bad kids.
And to be fair, they were probably raised by angry violent conservatives.
