Gipper, you are clearly correct. You usually are. I just wanted to state that in case you may ever start descending into madness from constantly being bombarded by unfathomably stupid responses to everything you say. Not everyone around you is a moron. There is a clear idea what a neo nazi skinhead looks like and matching that idea indeed makes you look like a neo nazi skinhead. It doesn't matter what the origin is. People still associate the ancient and positive symbol of the swastika with nazis. Anyway, carry on. This is entertaining.
No, he's still wrong. He's correct in "his experience" and "your experience" but wrong just like you because you both lack a broader understanding and experience with "this look". Where you grew up this is how Neo Nazis dress, where this look originated i.e. not where you're? from it doesn't carry the same negative connotations.
Those get ups might be cool within their little subculture, but the majority outside of the culture in the United States identify that style with Neo Nazism. Most people don't realize that the types of people that support Neo Nazism in the States would have been gassed by Hitler if their timelines somehow magically intersected, but that's kind of a moot point as perception is reality for most.
I kinda see it from the same vantage point as gang colors. Just because wearing a red shirt and hat doesn't mean anything to me, I'm still wise enough not to walk through a crip neighborhood without thinking that I'm welcoming trouble to come my way. I think people who share Ben's fashion sense should be conscious of this sentiment.
New years, 2016 maybe? Parked downtown in the neighborhoods, everyone's a blood there. I was blue shoes, blue jacket, and blue tupac bandana B. I walked up to this dude blooded out ( I was on meff and benz so didn't care ) and asked him for a cigarette.
He started all that doo doo doo shit whatup wit that blue nigga? I started crip walking and throwing c's (I'm not in a gang) then was like nah just kidding homie this shit just looks cool on me and matches with my eyes I'm tryna get girls, why you mad over a color?
He wanted to drop me for a sec, maybe shoot me cause dude obviously had a gun, but then I could see him thinking, then he was like aiight, aiight, then gave me 2 newports.
I don't know what it means, actually I do. You just gotta explain yourself so you can shatter perceptions? ??
