it’s just A beard, not “that beard”.
it’s just what happens to some men’s faces when they don’t shave and has nothing to do with political beliefs….

Yeah that's not true though. What happens when you don't maintain a beard is this:

There's a very specific styling that you see lot with right wingers. Something that's closer to this

Or this slightly less groomed variant

it’s the really short or shaved hair with a super long beard that makes it weird…

i agree, although i did nothing like that and nobody here did…

That as well, but saying it's just unkept beard is certainly not true.

It's a finely manicured beard that they've painstakingly kept trimmed to be the perfect size, shape and density, gotta look perfect when you're committing domestic terrorism.

It's not a fedora it's a trilby.

still basing your personality off hating a specific hat that hasn’t been popular for 20 years?

trolls always like to imagine themselves like that….
but no, i don’t care what kind of hat you’re basing your personality off of.
