Freedom of speech and assembly trump (pun intended) in my opinion a ban on something as silly as a MAGA hat swastika armbands (and they are ridiculous). I would argue that banning these hats swastikas HURT the cause of the left and liberals because it further distances ourselves from the fewer and fewer instances

freedom of speech ends at someone’s private property. political ideolgy is not a protected class by law. You’re free to kick anyone out of your private establishment. This isn’t a “free speech” issue. 

“ just like the rainbow flag or an Earth Day bumper sticker”

What exactly do you think the “cause” of the left is? People want criminal justice reform and an immigration policy that doesn’t involve placing latinx children in cages. These goals aren’t achieved by compromising or making friends with white supremacists.

Assholes Always Advertise.

Hell, I remember when the Russians were the Evil Empire and anyone sucking up a Russian dictator to even a fraction of the degree Trump does would have been eviscerated by the same people wearing the Commie-red MAGA hats. ;)

Remember when red was a color associated with the hated Commies, and wearing it as a political symbol would get your ass kicked? It’s kind of fascinating that red as a political color in the U.S. has become associated with the side of the (inappropriately binary, but whatever) political spectrum that hated Commies the

I absolutely get where you’re coming from. Pre-Trump, that’s where I was too. Trump was (is) a wakeup call. The usual stuff isn’t working, and our society is going to stay in a downward spiral until we figure out something that does work.

“please don’t call me a faggot” and “I hate faggots and don’t want to have to see them and they shouldnt be allowed to get married or adopt kids” are not equal positions. You fucking ass hat

There is never a time in my life where I want to converse with a racist. If you wear a MAGA hat you are a  racist, you support racist policies, you believe in the vilification and oppression of LGBT people and you make my LIFE more dangerous. Fuck those people I don’t want to see them showcase that they are hateful

The rainbow flag represents a point of pride for people who are born a certain way and would like not to be discriminated against for simply being who they are; MAGA hats symbolize a philosophy and view towards life and others—it is not a fundamentally unchangeable thing. They are not the same thing. And have you

We are not interested in reaching out to racist bigots. We have been reaching out to racist bigots for almost 50 years now, and the end result is that Trump is sitting in the White House telling us that racist bigots are fine people.

A ban on a specific type of ‘political attire’ is going to create the kind of trouble the owner wants to avoid. I agree with that sentiment. But there is a third option that, while still potentially adversarial, would do much to de-fang the MAGA crowd when they inevitably get triggered by not being able to publicly

People shouldn't be wearing hats indoors, anyway.

Yeah, just Google something like “Trump Yelp” and compile a few of the couple dozen news stories that inevitably turn up. Hand it over to the owner with a “Remember: You’re inviting this.”

Doooooo iiiiiiiittttttt. Fuck the MAGAts and fuck their enablers.

IP has made zero inroads here in East Asian near as I can tell, and I don’t think that would be the case if it were fabulous at making rice. An imported gadget for rice? If it were the miracle people portray, the fancy folks of Seoul would be stocking up on them so fast your head would spin, but nobody here is

You LIE! FAKE news! I have used an instant pot. Nah. The rice is just Monday rice and okay. But not the rice you could present as a competent main dish. And for sushi rice? No way. It’s too wet and overdone so that it breaks down and gets dense when you press the rolls.

I hate to keep beating the same drum, but including the platforms the game is available on should really be a standard part of any article about pretty much any game.
