    At least the previous hats had some style to them.

    The red one is just cheap trash

      NJ State Police were so impressed with Hugo Boss, they hired them for their uniforms.

        That’s not actually the influence, the New Jersey State Police Class A Uniform and lots of Nazi attire are both directly taken from cavalry uniforms. Specifically the romanticized period of cavalry before WW1. The NJSP uniform has been more or less the same since the 1920’s.

      The only one with any style is the literal Nazi one, and that’s mostly because that shit was designed by Hugo Boss.

      The KKK hood is just a damn sheet with holes in it and the Confederate hat is the same the Union’s but gray instead of blue.

      … because they are trying to stick a gun in my mouth, break my legs, and take all my money?

      You’re right they aren’t (yet), they’re only cheering on a racist bigoted fascist who is actively trying to put in place a government sanctioned apparatus that will handle those kinds of things

      So much better!

          People call MAGA fascist because fascism usually involves:

          • extreme nationalism, which is obvious with trump
          • totalitarianism, which is also obvious. Trump is not seeking to work within a system of checks and balances — he’s seeking total power; he is the law, he cannot break the law, etc
          • anti-democratic stances, which is also obvious given hints at “king”, third term, etc
          • suppression of opposition, given how everyone who doesn’t agree is getting fired and how he’s signing executive order after executive order in an attempt to cement MAGA ideals and enact project 2025
          • overt flaunting of power or military strength as a negotiation tactic; again obvious with tariff threats etc

              At this point, if you can’t see Drump as a fascist, then you fall into one of these categories:

              1. You’re a conservative in denial
              2. You support him being a fascist, in which case just drop the mask already
              3. You’re just a lil troll, in which case, goodbye
