The thing about reactionaries is that they think rules are for other people. It’s only hypocritical if one takes them at their word, but they only care about winning points in arguments. They’ll argue any position if they can twist it into sounding reasonable, and they’ll steal the language of liberation from the left to do so.
Their singular principle is that entrenched power must defend itself, because they know benefits them directly. They sincerely don’t care about the second amendment; they don’t think it applies to everyone, only “real” Americans who look and act like white supremacists.
Yeah, that’s how I read it too.
