I found it highly distasteful and so did a couple others, but most of you said nothing. Maybe the hatred of Lucie made many of you think or overlook it and being ok for someone to say those things towards Lucie.

In a way, Lucie is just like the hat. Fair game for all and any blowback is acceptable.

Dude made a post that the way to raise real (straight) men was to go back to the good old days when fathers took their sons to brothels so they learned that sex was between a man and a woman.

Someone asked if he could take his daughters there too. (That post/thread is deleted)

StL decided that meant the guy wanted to "do his daughters" and wouldn't let it go.  THAT'S why it mentioned more than once.  Because HE kept trying to make it stick when it was never said.

On topic: The "hat" is a hat.  If the people who wear it think it means more than an advertisement for Trump and his campaign that's on them.  Some people like to attribute a lot of "meaning" to inanimate objects and then get pissy when someone else doesn't feel just as strongly as they do.

On the other side if a lot of people wearing the same piece of clothing do a lot of stupid things ("Mexico will pay for the wall!" "Lock her up!" "In the old days you could rough a guy up!") then sooner rather than later the one piece of clothing will get a bad rep.  Fair?  Nope.  Just part of life.  

Personally?  I don't think people wearing MAGA gear are necessarily racist.  But then I tend to judge people on the actions and words not their appearance.  I do think they've been hoodwink but a Class B conman but that's a different discussion.
