Man Trains Crows to Attack MAGA Hats (futurism.com)

In a particularly creative expression of anti-MAGA sentiment, a man who goes by the username “biz_dave” says he successfully trained crows to attack MAGA hats. As detailed in a series of posts on Threads, the self-proclaimed “big nerd” and “very part-time artist” stuck some tasty treats, including “peanuts, chicken scraps, mealworms, and dog kibble,” underneath a MAGA hat.

“Once they were coming regularly, it was only about three months to get them to the hat removal stage,” biz_dave wrote.

I've been torn. I have almost a dozen greek fisherman hats in various colours, including red. I often won't wear it, but I can't part with it. I do still wear it sometimes, but I am prepared for any jackass to pipe up and say something stupid to me assuming I'm on their side so I can shut them the fuck up.

But I don't wear it much because I don't want folks on my side to assume I'm a fascist.

This timeline sucks, even if this is the tiniest reason it sucks.

I've also been looking for a pin to put on it that would help make things clear, but money's tight so I just choose not to wear it except sometimes when I go to dialysis where people already know my politics. lol
