MAGA hats, swastika tattoos

MAGA gear or by association those stupid shirts, hats, and stickers that say “F your feelings” or “we the people have had enough” etc. most people I work and live around that’s there basic fashion and culture.

Lifted trucks are sus, especially if they have balls hanging on the back.

Being Religious.

Anyone who pays the ridiculous up charge so they can provide free advertising for any big brand. If you paid $50 bucks for a regular ass shirt with nothing but a Nike logo on it then you’re a fucking rube.

A MAGA hat. I judge them for MAGA.

Really really long fake nails. Less judgement and more confusion I suppose. How do you do normal everyday activities?? I'm baffled

Cybertrucks

It's not judgement so much as a red flag, but those sunglasses that are like a solid cylinder wrapping around your head. They're popular with manosphere dudebros, which is unfortunate because I actually kind of like them.

Lifted pickups that I know cost more than a modest house. It's the same as buying a sports car, except you're also posing as a humble working man simultaneously.

Big lifted truck with spacers, no tow hitch, and a perfect unlined bed. Why the fuck do you have a big shiny truck and flake on your promise to help your friend move because you don't want to scratch your precious unlined bed. I've had more luck asking a rando with a squarebody Chevy and made an even better better friend.

Blue line American Flag sticker/apparel, especially if it's set inside the Punisher logo.

Had a guy profess his love for crypto on the last flight sitting behind me. He kept rambling about staying connected on discord and getting a heads up before bagholders. If you talk about investment strategies in public spaces and think crypto is hot and you still fly coach then fuck you and curse your family line back to the stone ages.

Basically the only thing that really bothers me is a lack of epistemological humility, people pretending their views are objectively true.

I really love how there's one conservative going through the comments and ascribing a solitary downvote to any mention of conservative values, like trucks, crosses, Cybertrucks (cause it's super specific) and the like.

Hey asshole. How does it feel to be part of a community that hates your fucking guts?

MAGA shit, thin blue line, black US flag, etc...

In case a civil war actually happens, it's good to know the enemy.

Harry Potter merch

I’m amazed nobody has mentioned a confederate flag (or confederate anything) yet. My first assumption would be that they’re racist and proud of it.

This is a german thing, but "Camp David" shirts are the first thing that come to mind. There is a good possibility the person wearing it is the most dense and arrogant person you'll ever meet.

Könnt ihr doch sicher bestätigen Germanbros, oder?

I try not to judge people for what they're wearing or carrying, but sometimes it's difficult.

Just today, I saw a guy in all black, sunglasses, black cap, etc, standing waving a Don't Tread on Me flag.

Beside a Pride parade.

In Edinburgh, Scotland.

WTAF?

Crosses.

99% chance it’s performative.

Arc'teryx (hardshell) jackets.

If you're walking around downtown you don't need it. If you actually needed it you wouldn't be wearing your expensive gear downtown.

Cybertruck owners. That is all.

Cybertruck drivers.

ETA: Regular Tesla drivers I give the benefit of the doubt to, because they might have bought their car before they realized Musk is a Nazi dickhead man-child. But cybertruck drivers basically knew and didn't care (or still fanboi'd over him).

For me, it’s a “thin blue line” sticker. I immediately think the person is racist.
