You cannot 'ironically' wear a symbol of hate.

I'm not against having a maga hat as a relic, since it hopefully has historical context if we still study history in 10 years, but wearing it endorses the movement regardless of your intent.

Maga people will see you wearing the hat and have no context. They will see the hat as validation, even if you're just doing it for the lulz.

What you consider a "symbol of hate" -the red hat- is only seen as that -a symbol of hate- by a relatively small group. And by comparison a group at least as large as the "red hate haters" are a group that see the red hat as an expression of freedom.

No... its not even a symbol of hate. But you have been convinced otherwise. And im not hoing to argue. Carry on
