“If you don’t wear Special Clothes around me I’m going to lose it.”
When are we going to move past costuming for work?
The only costume I wanna wear for work is a mascot costume for a sports team that named themselves after an animal.
It’s ok to admit you’re a furry on the Internet. We run the damn thing, after all
Look at the instance that user is from
Best I can do is racist caricature
I still think instead of changing their name, the Red Skins should have changed their mascot to a potato.

Dress codes serve as class signifiers. Like most rules of decorum, they’re cultural artifacts used to delineate the haves from the have-nots. They don’t dislike the fact that Fetterman refuses to wear a suit. They dislike the fact that he dresses like the common people he actually represents. Whereas they dress like the people they represent - capitalist oligarchs. They’re wanting to close ranks and keep people from realizing that not everyone in the senate serves the same masters.
People with their little collars and jackets and ties to make them feel important
Probably never. People will always judge others based on how they are dressed. We subconsciously attach a certain image of what people should look like. And these dress codes are often enforced by society indirectly. 99% of people would not want to have a lawyer dressed casually to court and will pick someone else even if the alternative is by all accounts not as good as the casually dressed lawyer.
My knee jerk reaction to seeing anyone in a suit is “Asshole”.
Once the Miserables found themselves outvoted in the Estates General of 1789 by about 3% of the population (the ones with money), it became very uncomfortable in France for aristocrats.
Just saying,
American’s don’t have the drive or the energy to care. We willingly lost 40 years ago.
Not willingly. What can I do I got work tomorrow
You see, this impacts them. Never mind that there’s no actual impact, they only want those among them who behave as expected. Also, he got excessive attention due to his attire, which gave him a bigger audience for his political views.
So youre saying that things need to impact these people?
Only very small things though. A few millimetres at most.
Also, he got excessive attention due to his attire, which gave him a bigger audience for his political views.
Not necessarily.
People who disagree with his dress attire may not care to pay attention to his message/opinions (ex.: “This guy’s a joke, I’m not listening to him”).
Those who dismiss him because of his attire would, most likely, not listen to him, regardless. It’s the others, who otherwise would know nothing of this man or his policies, who may be swayed in some way.
Look, I’m all for raising the minimum wage, and if it ever comes across the ballot I would always vote yes. But this is such a shit take, of fucking course dress code is easier to deal with than the economics of the whole country. If you’re going to critique the government, make sense at least.
