Well, you're committing a bit of a reverse fallacy of composition there, by assuming that the composition of the whole makes it impossible for any constituent parts to be something else; Quebec can be liberal, yet still have a single- or set of- authoritarian laws. Quebec is probably filled with Canadians too, that doesn't mean everyone in Quebec was born there.

And if the government near you took it in mind that atheism or antitheism was fascist and banned the public display of that, would you still be okay with it?
That's the point we're making: regardless of personal feelings, and I agree with you as to the symbolism of this particular garment, it's never okay for the government or majority to start dictating how one might express beliefs that aren't immediately physically harmful. That door swings both ways.
