Members unicorn Posted 7 hours ago Members Posted 7 hours ago A married couple and we were in Miami Beach before we'll be embarking on a cruise tomorrow. One of the couple bought a muscle hoodie at the store. After we'd left the store, his husband asked him if he'd seen that the store also sold MAGA caps. The hoodie-purchasing hubbie said he wouldn't have bought the hoodie had he known. I wouldn't have either (I guess I have to look more carefully). Later that day, I was surprised to walk buy another tourist store which sold both MAGA and rainbow flag caps, and prominently displayed them in the front window! I thought that was a strange combo. One would think that LGBTQ-friendly people wouldn't patronize a store which sold MAGA hats, and that MAGAts wouldn't patronize a store which sold gay-friendly clothing. Would you patronize a store which sold MAGA caps? Isn't this a strange business model? TMax 1 Quote
jimmie50 Posted 7 hours ago Posted 7 hours ago That's a difficult question. I avoid businesses that I know their primary customer base would be MAGA. For example, in the area of Denver where I live is a small, drive-thru coffee shop. They have MAGA signs, flags, and just about any and all paraphernalia letting you know precisely who they are. I would never, ever stop there even if it was the last place on earth to get a cup of coffee. I don't know that you would find MAGA caps in mainstream stores like Target, Penney's, Macy's, etc., although I can't say I have looked around for such things, either. I think it is more likely something you would find in a more conservative state, such as Florida, and especially in tourist areas. I don't know that they are necessarily promoting MAGA, but are probably more interested in making money from many different segments of the tourist population....trying to appeal to everyone. I would be more inclined to shop at the store that had both MAGA and LGBTQ friendly merchandise than one in which only MAGA was available. TMax 1 Quote

Go no further than the vile Scott Bessent and Miss LindsayBelle, and the closeted JD Maybelline.... There is NOTHING I could want that I wouldnt be able to find in another store or online, so my answer would be NO, I would not patronize any business supporting MAGA, unless of course they sold Hot muscle boys with 10" cocks ! Then I might be SWAYED ! 😁 TMax 1 Quote
