Alyssa Milano is one bad Lifetime movie away from the official end of her career. She’s trying real hard to stay relevant. I applaud her effort, but still wish she’d just go away.
As I have stated many times, I am certainly NOT a Trump supporter, but in my opinion, many people who do support Trump are just angry and disgusted at the increasingly liberal direction that U.S. has been going, and they long for the comparatively simple and generally more pleasant "olden days" (if one was straight, white and not poor, that is). These people are not necessarily racists or "haters", and they don't deserve to be treated as if they are.
ALL people are entitled to a difference of opinion and to express it, imo, as long as it does not actually harm anyone else.
First, I'm not a big fan of this particular tagline or some of the connotations it is associated with for various reasons.
But someone does have a fundamental, constitutionally protected right to wear things with various political statements on them that others may find off-putting.
And physical assault for this is inexcusable whether someone likes the message or not. We can't be giving passes for that kind of behavior, short of physical self defense, even if the message bearer is offensive in their viewpoints (going beyond the MAGA hat, but in general).
Beyond that, a question that people need to put a little more thought into is not just whether you can do something but whether you should do it. Just because you choose to do something that you can do doesn't mean there won't be consequences that aren't so pleasant.
For instance, if you are a business owner and wearing these kinds of things you may be sabotaging yourself by turning half your potential customers off to you and your business and tempting them to go to someone who can provide the same level of service at the same price without politicizing themselves publicly.
Or someone may be going to a family event in honor of someone and choose to wear something like this. The person has just turned the attention from the honoree to themselves because it's going to get peoples' political opinions stirred up. They may have had the right to wear this but it really wasn't appropriate or respectful in the circumstances.
Good judgment and basic decency is really a precious (and sometimes rare) gem here.
People losing their stuffs over a baseball hat are the problem. If Americans learned to mind their own goddamn business just a *little* more, we wouldnt have this steady stream of utterly infantile confrontations occurring. People need to re-learn how to internalize things that offend them a little more, instead of lgetting lathered up and melting down publically as if the world owes them apology.
You are not a model citizen for wearing a MAGA hat, and you are not a model citizen for picking a fight with someone wearing one.
