    The opinion of strangers should have some impact on you. Too much and too little both lead to bad places. A little consideration for the opinions of strangers encourages pro social behavior. And yes choosing to avoid accidentally signaling something is part of pro social behavior.

    Personally I like strangers to be less on guard with me, it makes my day a little bit more pleasant. I’m not going to judge people for choosing otherwise with something like a hat that happens to be red, but it’s not a choice I’d personally make

      Sorry bro but if you jump to conclusions based off the color of my hat without even seeing what’s on the hat then you are the asshole.

      I really don’t think I need to interact with an asshole. You did me a favor by avoiding me.
