I don't have that hat, but if I did get one, could I feel safe at your rallies?

I have not been to one in more than a year now, but no, I wouldn't advise it. I don't think you will be unsafe but you would be unwelcome.

I saw one that said "Make Israel Palestine Again" once at a rally. I am sad to see that you have such a low opinion of collective action. It doesn't always work and the motivations aren't always pure but the status quo fears it for a reason. Look at the public reaction to Jan 6th, or the BLM summer of 2020, or the Arab Spring, for examples. It always seems messier in the present moment. Sometimes it is messy in the present moment. Your opinion on this reminds me of the white moderate MLK lamented in his letter from a Birmingham jail.

"During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their theories with the most savage malice, the most furious hatred and the most unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander. After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it."
