Same boat here (PNW big bearded dude). I actually got handed a 'White Pride's card last week. Before I had the full beard nobody ever said racists shit to me unless it was accusatory. Now they think I'm on their side.

Doesn't help that I'm into survivalism, permaculture, and off-grid living. I'm constantly fighting the algorithm that wants to feed me ultra conservative bullshit.

The algorithm is insane for that crap. I'm in a band with a bunch of other 40 something dudes and the shit they get inntheor feeds is wild. I'm too paranoid to raw dog the Internet or have conventional social media so I miss most of the hateful crap. The screen shots they share in the group chat are wild.

One of the guys owns a roofing business and that's likely the most toxic feed I've seen. Its a miracle he isn't fully maga-activated.
