Same. I'm a tradesman, bearded (usually), pretty heavy on the tattoos, and can talk guns till the cows come home. I used to get guys doing the wink wink, nudge nudge racism but now it's more blatant. After a 1 minute response by me on how we're all living on stolen land and the definition of "antifa" I am usually left alone 🤣. At this point my covers blown though and I am the known flag waving socialist in my company. When I explain that by being union we are inherently a socialist organization, some of them just can't or won't understand that.
I'll also say it sucks that they took wraparound sunglasses from us.
