And they would be just as certain that most of the Confederate flags they've seen were displayed by redneck white supremacists.
Of course, when they judge you, they're "ignorant"; when you judge them, you're right.
Thanks for the chat.
Gee lemmeesee! If one has to pull up and ask a couple flying a rainbow flag if they are gay or not, that would be kinda stupid seeing as how they're putting it out there for all to see. But I will not judge them unless I see them packing fudge, ok?! Yeah its been a real nice chat, now I understand why this country doesn't have enough sack anymore. Because people are too afraid that if they are perchance of the white race, and they speak up for their Constitutional rights, they'll be viewed as a "racist redneck" whether they are or they aren't, - AND GOD FORBID THAT SHOULD EVER HAPPEN!
As a result of this chat? Man, you really don't have a clue what we've been chatting about.
Wrong answer! I know very well what we've been chatting about - its called appearances and perceptions. And all I can say is that people who tailor their appearance to suit someone else's perceptions are PC geeks. There's a judgement fer ya! ;^o
Or, maybe it just doesn't bother you that people think you're a white supremacist. ;O)
LOL... You should realize your whole purpose in putting that Confederate flag (or any sticker) on your car is to "tailor [your] appearance to suit someone else's perceptions."
It doesn't bother me if people see my NRA sticker and think I might be a gun enthusiast (which I am) or a hunter (which I'm not).
Similarly, you don't mind if people think you're a white supremacist.
