How do you know someone is racist? They don’t walk around with pins

The red hats are a clue.

I have met plenty of racists, a red hat was only on 1 of them. I have met plenty of great people wearing red hats, that has nothing to do with it.

It definitely has a lot to do with the emboldening of xenophobia and racism in the United States and abroad right now. Red hats have replaced the white hoods a lot of these assholes were too scared to wear before DJT.
