On the elevator a MAGA cretin saw my army Tee, ball cap, short hair and made a very wrong assumption. This MAGA fool said lets impeach Biden over Afghanistan.
Pause
I said actually Trumps army of 5000 released Taliban prisoners are responsible.
Also Trump should be tried for Crimes Against Humanity for his COVID response.
MAGA sputtering ensued.
I laughed quite loudly.

(32,006 posts)Since Im a middle aged (cough, cough) nice white lady, the MAGAts assume Im one of them, too. Always fun to see their faces when they find out youre not a member of their cult.

(15,805 posts)Amazing how erroneous their assumptions can be. Kinda like when they assume an old lady with Biden bumper stickers will be an easy verbal target. And they seem just sooooo amazed when they get something other than agreement, hehehehehehe...

They are truly burracho.

(45,457 posts)I'm a big grumpy brown dude with a short buzz cut who tells people I'm born in the USA when they ask where I'm from, so MAGA types often assume I'm one of them.
Unfortunately a lot of immigrants assume the worst about me too, but I didn't choose where I was born.

But Im a 511 white guy in the summer when I wear sandals, cargo shorts, and fishing tee-shirts. In cooler months Im over 6 foot tall in my boots and dungarees!
I have a short hair cut, normally wear a cap and just just look like a republican. Down to the pick up I drive
Its always in breweries when they start up I just turn to them and tell them Im a Social Democrat. They shut up and leave.
Now this only happened a couple of times. Generally most people dont talk politics to stir up trouble in breweries. They are not bars.
