      You are making an assumption about someone’s everyone’s character, worldview, lifestyle and political association based on a single piece of information - how they like to dress. You’re one step away from crossing the street when you see a black guy or asking an asian for help with a math problem.

        If Nazis said “I like ice cream” rather than “Heil Hitler” then when someone went to an ice cream store and innocently ordered, I would correctly assume they are a Nazi. Not my fault the Nazis ruined ice cream.

        So don’t dress like this, it’s the new Nazi uniform. If you do, wear a swastika because there’s no difference. Or wear a tiny rainbow anywhere and nobody will assume that. The way we dress absolutely tells our story, you wouldn’t be upset if it didn’t.

        This isn’t a race thing so much, same story for Black, Asian, or White people that dress this way (in my area there’s a pretty equal split tbh).

          “Oh I’m white that must mean I’m a white supremacist because some clowns ruined being white”

          That’s what you sound like. You’ve got to understand how completely absurd what you said is, right?

            Which part of what I said, or anywhere in this thread or post, sounds like that, or even mentions skin color? We’re talking about clothing, which is a choice, and Nazis, who come in many colors.
