Title: "Texas man punched election worker over Trump hat at voting site, police say"
Ambiguous. This could mean a Harris voter walked up to an election worker who happened to have a Trump hat while working, and punched him. And was the election worker not also a Texas man or woman?Something tells me this is more US journalism fail, and a normal title would have been:
"Texas man wearing Trump hat punched an election worker when asked to remove it." Let's check:

You can tell from the post slug in the article URL, that the author of the piece agreed with me!
Eg, this is in the URL:
"texas-man-punched-election-worker-told-him-remove-trump-hat"But whoever is responsible for getting people to click on the article, decided to be intentionally ambiguous.
️These title shenanigans are not an effective way to avoid fascism.

He's got a lot of really unhinged people voting for him, and they're riled up and being told they need to resort to this: violence was inevitable, and it will only get worse for as long as he is relevant.
