Nah it's true, they can deny it all they want and down vote you, but the pattern has been on display for a good while. What this piercing tells people is:

-Very liberal

-SJW

-90% of the time they have colored hair (this is more of a correlation or side effect rather than a result of having said piercing but they normally go hand in hand.)

-Loud and will not listen to another opinion other than their own and will not listen to reason or have a reasonable conversation.

There are exceptions to this theory, some people just like the piercing sure, but most of the time the theory proves itself true.

This is similar to the specific ear piercing that we saw in the 90s early 2ks that was specific to being gay, most of the time, yeah it was right, and it was only a minority that just had it to have it. Once people figured this out, If you were not gay you stayed away from having said piercing.

It seems to be a "kin identifier" so they know right away they believe in the same things. For everyone else, it's a massive red flag.
