    How do you go too far with images of poppies, especially when they represent remembrance for people who died fighting nazis?

      Ironic that you mentioned Nazis.

      There are some people who have become obsessed with the idea that if you don’t wear a poppy you’re some kind of warmonger.

      They go around and try and shame people about it. I don’t know why they just don’t hound out white feathers.

      Honestly it’s just people with nothing better to do with their lives then harang everyone else for not exactly conforming to their personal worldview.

        That’s a bit much. Like yeah, if someone asked “should I wear a poppy”, I’d 100% encourage them to. But there’s no sense harassing someone who doesn’t lol.
