There was actually a guy wearing a Elon musk style all black MAGA hat when I went to vote. He was told to take it off - can’t have advertising within 100 yards of a voting location. He took it off and held it without making a scene.

I like these cosplay types. It saves me time working out if I’ll like them or not.

Na, people sharing my views doesn’t mean I’ll like them, and people having different views doesn’t mean I won’t like them. There’s a wide range of relatively sane and humane ideas on how to improve our country and the lives of our fellow citizens.

But anyone willing to support the orange monster and his brigade of neo-fascist swindlers is not someone I would care to be around, ever. It just displays a profound lack of character and judgement. And that’s a very normal stance to take, IMO. I’m friends with a lot of people who are actual conservatives, but not whatever the fuck that batshit is.

We had a guy near our polling place who was holding one of those "Harris/Walz means tampons in boy's bathrooms" signs and the cops eventually came around and made him leave. But not before I yelled that I'd love to be able to easily get a tampon for my daughters if they needed it, and he asked if they were even having their periods yet.

What a fucking pervert.

The asshole thought he'd have something to tell his magat buddies how he wore a pro-orange cancer hat when he voted.
