>Friendly if you're the right political party and orientation, I hear.
Yes, it's conservatives who have done and continue to do the following:
- Attacked people in the streets over a hat they've chosen to wear. A hat merely supporting the nation's elected President.
- Deplatformed, or had banned from even attending non-political events, for wearing the same hat at an entirely irrelevant place and time.
- Cornered or essentially kidnapped college professors, and then continuing on to destroy their careers, for expressing views not even contrary to their own but merely in light conflict with it.
- Started trending topics on social media lamenting a desire to kill an entire demographic of people based on their race and gender, or denouncing a race or gender as "trash".
- Held marches in prominent cities calling for cops to be shot.
- Attacked journalists from the "opposite" side for merely being at events to report on them.
etc. etc.
Long story short, I would wager that your typical radfem socialist type, adhering to the stereotypical dress attire and appearance choices, would be a magnitude of order more safe and welcomed walking down a street, or attending a university, in a major Texan city than a conservative with a MAGA hat, or similar stereotypical signal, in a liberal city.
Please don't take HN threads further into ideological flamewar. The GP comment was flamebait, but this comment is the bursting into flames that we're trying to avoid here.
