>Wearing a Gadsden Flag hat to work could be considered racial harassment, according to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the government body that oversees “hostile work environment” harassment claims against federal agencies.
>The iconic flag, which originates from the Revolutionary War, features coiled snake above the words “Don’t Tread On Me.” In recent years, it has become a favorite symbol of the Tea Party movement and conservative activists.
>Earlier this year, the EEOC received a complaint from a “Shelton,” an African American, who charged that his employer (the federal government) had subjected him to racial discrimination when a coworker “repeatedly wore a cap with an insignia of the Gadsden Flag.” Shelton (not his real name) said he found the cap to be “racially offensive” because the man who designed it in 1775, Christopher Gadsden, was a slave owner and because the insignia was a “historical indicator of white resentment against blacks stemming largely from the Tea Party.”

That's the direction the world is going, collective anons. It's a good thing we spend almost all of our time on the internet and don't have to deal with the world's ever-increasing slide towards leftist bullshit in person.

Just wait until they realize Betsy Ross's husband John Ross owned slaves.

Does that mean it's offensive to fly an Israeli flag, since Jews were the biggest slave owners?
Nicholas White
Now I'm no American so correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the whole "don't tread on me" thing just mean that you want the government to mind their own business?
Austin Murphy
Yep. It's like poetry in motion.

For all the hate against law enforcement the black community seems to support, it's pretty ironic they're trying to go against a flag that was flown by dudes that killed law enforcement 240 years ago.

On March 6, 1961, President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order 10925, which required government contractors to "take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, creed, color, or national origin."[4] It established the President's Committee on Equal Employment Opportunity of which then Vice President Lyndon Johnson was appointed to head. This was the forerunner of the EEOC.
JFK killed our freedom, so the Communists killed him!

I was called into HR for wearing a MAGA hat during my commute to work, and leaving it in my car.

Blue Cross Blue Shield. They said they had gotten an unspecified complaint about it. I still wear it.

Good on ya. Fucking HR departments are the worst. I worked for a bookstore that originally had Ben Carson booked for a signing during the debates and publicly marketed it for almost a month. They ended up canceling it with less than a week remaining and told all of us to play stupid. Everyone knows the higher ups are big time leftists, but if that is true, why book him at all? Do they even pay attention to the election coverage at all? Needless to say, he went to a competitor and the line was around the building. Ridiculous.

It's not a racial thing. EEOC needs to be sued to settle this in law.
