In reply to the discussion: Passed an old man wearing a MAGA hat on the sidewalk... [View all]PatSeg

I hadn't heard the song either.
I just don't want to behave like they do.
It doesn't mean they should go unchallenged, but not quite in the way they behave; i.e. crude, vulgar, violent, ignorant, profane, threatening, etc. I can put people down without swearing the way they do, especially on signs, shirts, hats, and bumper stickers. Also, I would never damage someone's property because I disagree with them.

I'm very much aware. Not saying it's a good idea, but the MAGA hat is a swastika to me.
