Upcoming Social Experiment: A MAGA Hat In Melbourne, Aus

Hi all,

Today I purchased myself one of those evil red hats.

I plan on wearing this hat in the CBD of Melbourne Australia between my office and the train station and on my commute back.

The results shall be interesting. I ordered it today so probably won't have it until next week but will be sure to post results.

If you're in Melbourne and you see a handsome, early 30's guy in office attire come say hi. Or punch me in the face...such is trhe experiment.

I do not suspect you will get physically accosted while brandishing said hat, I would caution you to be aware of those around you. Sometime politics makes people irrational.

a reply to: randomtangentsrme
I sure hope not although I am quite capable of defending myself and apparently have a 'menacing' appearance.

I'm likely to only do it one day or two and note the results which should be interesting.

You should top it off with a Bernie 2020 shirt.

YES! Brilliant idea though he's not as divisive a figure for the masses

a reply to: IAMALLYETALLIAM

pretty childish.

a reply to: oloufo

Agreed. But sometimes you need to be.

I think it's more childish believing a hat has magical evil powers though

Well, if you're going to get a reaction, you've picked the right city for your experiment.

Tell me about it.

On the tram travelling in from the inner northern suburbs yesterday a plump 50'sish woman got on and the lady next to me and the one across both sighed, gave me (a young white male) an annoyed look and offered their seats (we were in the seats reserved for the elderly and those with disabilities). They all looked of the same self righteous ilk, the new passenger included.

I had my large travel case in front of me as I was heading back to the country that evening which would have made I t very difficult for me to do so on a packed tram.

Since when does not looking after yourself constitute a disability and the need for me to offer my seat?

a reply to: IAMALLYETALLIAM

Just a polite word of caution.

I''m regularly punched for crimes against fashion.

Apparently, socks and sandles is a real red flag with some folk.

Aussie humor at its best.

Just a bit of fun being an Australian.

Mate, interesting experiment.

You need a name for the operation.

Operation Snowflake!

See how many you can catch.

pretty childish.

So is running around in masks attacking people because they support a candidate that you don't like and spending 4 years trying to impeach somebody because you don't like them.

He's just having some fun.

Melbourne is full of libtards - make sure you swing by a Uni, you'll likely get a viral vid from your encounters with our friends from the proactively triggered.

100% mate aka 'takin the piss'!

A calm response and the sort of calm reasonable conversation I would look to have may hopefully help some of them look inwardly to the source of their dissatisfaction and stop blaming old white men, hot days and hats

There's on right in the CBD between my office and Flinders Street station

You can't be serious?!

The hell is wrong with some people. I'm sorry to hear that.

a reply to: IAMALLYETALLIAM

I bet you $100 you won’t get any reaction at all and anyone who even notices your MAGA hat will just roll there eyes and think your a tool.

*you're, as in, you're a tool.

Well, arn't you a judgmental little bugger? Some disabilities can't be known just by looking at someone.

Why so mean about middleaged women?

Must be nice to be young, still thin and male.

Ever heard of chivalry? I'd like to meet your parents.

a reply to: Subaeruginosa

You may be correct in all estimations.

$100 if I get a reaction then?
