Only enough time to quickly respond to one, so I pick Hogg.
I stated that the red MAGA hat was becoming a symbol (no longer just a hat) much like the confederate flag or swastika.
You can disagree all you wish, but it's a fact.
People disagreed with the confederate flag becoming the symbol which it became, but it didn't change the reality.
I'm sure some disagreed with the way the symbolism of the swastika evolved, but it didn't change the reality.
Of course I don't find wearing a hat as equally disgusting as physical assault, no one does, that's absurd.
What I find equally disgusting is knowingly displaying a symbol that has come to represent bigotry, hatred, and racism to a critical mass of society.
Luth, it's not FACT, and it ain't critical mass. You need to stay off the computer, TV, and all other avenues and go out and live life my man.
The fact of the matter is the majority of American's are decent and don't really give a sh** about the politicians and all of their lies or any of the crap the media throws out daily.
We want to be left alone, pay our taxes, be able to earn the best livelihood we can, take care of our families, and be able to go about our lives.
The vast majority don't even think about any of the racist or sexist or hate that the media thinks we do, not even a millisecond of thought a day unless it's thrown in our face from the media.
The lunatic fringe is 10-15% on both sides, then there are the rest of us. Stop believing the doom and gloom your fed daily and go out and volunteer some more, go on a vacation, do anything other than what you currently are doing to restore some semblance of reality and decency in your fellow country men.
Aside from political differences we all do want the same things relatively speaking.
As I've stated before, I've enjoyed talking with you outside of this political forum and it makes it much easier to view you as likeable, disregard the political and religious spectrums and let's start to concentrate on what we have in common, and go from there. Life would be better for everyone.
