But according to some far right wingers I've come across on with Facebook call me a cuck. I even had someone tell me that since I never fought in the army I shouldn't be able to have a voice and such. Or another instance a gun nut told me that they better hope they're their to protect me when we get invaded by a foreign country. [I do own guns]. I do not however tote them around to show everyone. I honestly feel the reason some do this is because they are trying to compensate for "something else".
I just never understood it. It just seems Republicans have this insecurity where they're insecure about their masculinity. Like they somehow think caring about minorities is somehow a sign of weakness. I don't even consider myself a Liberal, in fact I'm a registered independent but I am probably more Libertarian.

That must be tough. It sounds like you're in America. I don't know much about politics there but I'm for LGBT rights, minority rights, women's rights and disability rights. I'm from Sydney, Australia but I can imagine what you're saying. Republicans are ones within Trump's party, right? Generally, these people may be religious, depending on if you're in the Bible Belt. Most religious people are rude and insensitive enough to name-call someone who's different.
