I thought a white pith helmet was a “symbol” of keeping one’s head cool(er) in a warm climate. Crazy me.
You’re right. Unless the wearer is a republican. Then it becomes rife with symbolism of hatred and oppression.
Just like all of those Oppression Hats people wear at Trump rallies. If they could just submit to wearing pussy hats . . . No, actually, the left would still be beating the crap out of them.
