Please don't take HN threads further into ideological flamewar. The GP comment was flamebait, but this comment is the bursting into flames that we're trying to avoid here.

Fair enough. You can delete my original post if you so wish.
Yes, it's conservatives who have done and continue to do the following:
- Attacked people in the streets over a hat they've chosen to wear. A hat merely supporting the nation's elected President.
- Deplatformed, or had banned from even attending non-political events, for wearing the same hat at an entirely irrelevant place and time.
- Cornered or essentially kidnapped college professors, and then continuing on to destroy their careers, for expressing views not even contrary to their own but merely in light conflict with it.
- Started trending topics on social media lamenting a desire to kill an entire demographic of people based on their race and gender, or denouncing a race or gender as "trash".
- Held marches in prominent cities calling for cops to be shot.
- Attacked journalists from the "opposite" side for merely being at events to report on them.
etc. etc.
Long story short, I would wager that your typical radfem socialist type, adhering to the stereotypical dress attire and appearance choices, would be a magnitude of order more safe and welcomed walking down a street, or attending a university, in a major Texan city than a conservative with a MAGA hat, or similar stereotypical signal, in a liberal city.
