Yeah I mean I get what they are trying to say. They don’t want to be lumped by that association. They don’t want that commonality I guess.

For instance I’m a recovering alcoholic. I’ll always be an alcoholic, I just don’t adhere to those thoughts.

It’d be weird of me to get upset if they started calling trump an alcoholic. It doesn’t change my situation and I can still choose to not drink.

Calling someone else an alcoholic doesn’t make the world think of me

I can’t say I agree with their stance.
