Dude, he famously wears that beanie all the time because he's embarrassed about his baldness and won't admit he's balding.

Sorry, you're not going to get me to stop telling the world about the Deep State's nefarious Hooters plan.
I’m trying to help you have a better argument. Making fun of someone for being bald or insecure earns no sympathy.
Yeah, well maybe he shouldn't put himself out there as the ultimate example of masculinity.
And?
He's embarrassed because people keep making fun of others for the way they look that's out of their control.
My point stands, don't make fun of people for things they can't control/genetics/etc...
When people do this, it just reassures their negative thoughts and good hardworking innocent people (not talking about this person specifically) end up hiding who they are because society makes fun of them for who they are. It's wrong.
I personally experience this on multiple levels and it's a huge contributing factor to why I shun huge chunks of society.
Edit: adding I have no idea who the person is, never seen them before this but my point won't change regardless of how much of a shit person they may or may not be.
Herein lies the problem.
No, not at all....you're insulting someone about baldness. What if I'm bald and take great offence to you basically saying fuck bald people because they are bald. These little insults are no different then calling someone gay as an insult, or a retard. It's insulting way more people then you might actually think AND it creates this societal norm that baldness, is wrong and you should be ashamed of it and hide who you are.
You, are being a problem right now by insulting people based on things they cannot control. All it does is reinforce some weird bullshit stigma that baldness is inherently bad.
If the guys a racist prick, call him that. Don't insult him because he's bald, has big ears, wears glasses, etc...
If I talk about Donald Trump's tiny baby hands, I'm not insulting all people with small hands. I'm insulting a guy who is very insecure about the idea of people who think he has tiny baby hands.
But I apologize to all of the members of the highly-oppressed bald community for my previous posts.
