idk, i try not to judge people based solely on outward cultural signifiers. i agree an aversion to politics as such usually indicates some reactionary tendencies. and obviously i don't like people who are casually cruel to strangers no matter what their avowed politics are.
alternate answer: if they're straight, i spit on them
What if they're into it?
then we can be friends
I had multiple people just assume I'm some kinda libertarian from how I dress and it throws them for a loop when I start saying some communist shit.
Its sorta funny but it makes me feel bad, like what if a queer comrade is weary of me because of how I dress despite being the person most willing to go to bat for them in the room?
its not like I'm even wearing military surplus shit or something weird. Just boots, jeans, sweaters, and a ball cap.
mil surplus means anarchist imo
of all kinds
