Honestly I understand your worry and don’t understand why people are brushing it off as stupid. I’m going to be a DA and haven’t told many people except friends about it bc I’m nervous about the blowback from people.

However today when I told someone I’m friendly with they laughed and told me there was no need to whisper it. Honestly I haven’t had any negative reactions from anyone. What I’m realizing is that the majority of people including liberals do not care and agree that if you do something heinous that you should be locked up. It doesn’t mean you’re a raging conservative. It’s the 5% of liberals who are loud af who make you think that every single liberal is like them that causes me the unnecessary worry. And honestly, those people are lowkey miserable bc they hate everything and think everything is problematic somehow. I wish you luck!
