    The scariest part of this movement for me is being targeted because somebody thought I was conservative. *shudder*

      I’ve been getting this for the last few years because I look conservative. Sigh. Seems like it will soon get worse.

        My father sometimes complains that he cant wear his red fishing hat anymore, because unless you pay close attention to the different design on the front, it looks like a maga hat.

          The red hats that say “made you look” make me laugh, but I haven’t wanted to buy one because they look a little too convincing 😔

        I’m 6’3, 300 pounds, built like a linebacker. Shaved head. There aren’t a lot of clothes that look good on me and actually fit (finding a shirt long enough is hell). I tend to wear jeans and wife beater with an unbuttoned collared shirt in the summer, and flannel in the winter. I also tend to wear the shoes the podiatrist gives me (for now. So long medical insurance after 2025).

        I have 100 percent been confused for a skin head on numerous occasions. If I’m leaving Walmart after dark, women will rush to their cars if I have to pass close by. I don’t blame them. It sucks, but I’m glad they’re acting on their safety over my feelings. But it does still hurt my feelings. :/

            I would also suggest Duluth trading. It’s been my go to for a long time. Similar in quality to Carhartt but has more material options. Their dry on the fly line of stuff is 90% of what I wear.

                Yea I have the dry on the fly pants and shorts. I know the undies are supposed to be good but I’m 100% on exofficio.
