I'm a well armed Canadian leftist/labour unionist and people are always surprised by this combination (especially in Canada where non-conservative politicians are almost always gun grabbers). I always have to remind them two things:

  • left wing and "woke liberal" are two different things

  • when you get far enough to the left you find people aren't willing to give up their guns anymore
