Letting the Market Decide

Almost all respondents on social media were enthusiastic about banning the garb at left.

Two points:

1) I’m thrilled to live in a country that protects its people’s freedom of expression.  As an older American, I’m not crazy about massive tattoos, face-piercings, and young guys walking around with their pants worn down around their knees, but I’m a real fan of the United States Constitution.

The author of the meme might want to take a peek.  It’s a good read.

2) What actually works on a societal basis, and what no one can regulate, is public acceptance or rejection.  You’re free to wear extreme forms of the hijab, or claim that the Holocaust was a hoax, or believe that the Earth is flat, or tell your neighbors that the 2020 presidential election was rigged, that you, with no training in science, think climate change is a hoax, or that vaccines are often lethal.

However, you’ll pay a stiff price in terms of acceptance into refined society.  Want to get a high-level job or join a country club dressed like that?  Do you think that spouting off the gibberish of uneducated MAGA slobs in the workplace will advance your career?

Good luck.
