“Queer liberals view guns, the same way conservatives view queer liberals. You’re so against it, but then you find one in your hands, and you’re just like, oh…this ain’t too bad.”

Emma has a love/hate relationship with the country that raised her. While working at the infamous Mall of America, the mecca of American capitalism, Emma sat around and dreamed of a different kind of America, where conservatives and queers shoot guns together, women get free abortions in churches, and poor white people finally realize that rich white people have never had their backs.
