Proud of Wichita
I regularly wear clothes that have loud messaging, like almost every day. A lot of hats and shirts with "Fuck ICE", "Eat the Rich", "Trans Rights Are Human Rights", etc. I do it because I am a large white cis man and I think it's extra important for everyone to know that these issues are salient in people's' minds, and hopefully to inspire others to also wear similarly loud clothing. I've been doing this for like 2 years now. I anticipated some good feedback, and a lot of derisive comments and such coming my way out in public. But after doing this for about 2 years, not only do I get some kind of "Hell yeah" or something nearly every time I go somewhere, but literally not a single person has said anything bad about it since I started doing it. I haven't heard so much as a grunt of disapproval. Now granted, I am a large bulky intimidating white man that walks around with a look that says "I dare you" so I expected some people to be a bit too scared to say anything (as you should be you little BITCH), but I definitely didn't expect absolutely 0 pushback.
Anyways, I'm pleasantly surprised on both fronts and wanted to share it with everyone. Very happy that people feel inspired and comfortable enough to give verbal approval when they didn't have to, and also very pleased that people that do disagree with basic messages of human decency are uninspired and uncomfortable enough to not say anything (again, as you should be 🖕🧐🖕)
