"No government employee can wear political symbols to work" is 100%, clearly and entirely not the same as "No political symbols may be shown anywhere on any government property" Seriously?? A downvote?? You asked why it matters, I explained why it matters, jfc, leave the nasty Reddit behaviour on Reddit tyvm. permalink fedilink source parent
