A sad state of affairs but prudent and thoughtful of FB to advise this.
I wouldn't wear West Ham gear while walking through a Millwall neighbourhood. I probably also wouldn't wear big tech stash at the heat of some super frothy political times layered on top of a pandemic and other unrest.
Maybe there's an argument about behaving indifferently as itself being a political stance but I am happy not inviting trouble to myself.

The sports analogy is quite good though. For the vast majority it’s just red team vs blue team based on identity and emotion with precious little ratiocination.
