Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Just replace Trump with Kamala or whoever the next Dem nominee will be. I've seen houses set up the same way and clothing merch with all the nonsense. They act exactly like MAGA. You can't criticize their chosen God cause then you're seen as the enemy and they will fight like hell to protect their precious neolib from criticism.

Really? I haven't. Not once.

Should be easy to share a picture demonstrating that then, right?

Something like:

Edit: The last time I asked this question, I was shown a tshirt, a hat, and a banner about Gavin Newsom poking fun at Trump, as three separate photos. The T-shirt wasn't even on a person.

If its so common, surely there must be some pictures.

Their car:

Thats all removable.

Edit: To be clear, I mean that doesnt even survive rain. Its soap. And tape. Not a sticker, not a paint job, and not even a single flagpole!

Closer! But not remotely near what maga territory looks like.

Their costume

A hat and a T-shirt... Still seems a little bit like just regular stuff you see at a rally or convention...

Their every day wear:

Ah, t-shirts again. Not a vest with 80 patched on it that say Kamala, no coverage in ridiculous flags...hell, no Kamala tattoos in sight!

Sorry, none of that is remotely close yet. I appreciate the effort though!

[–] Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zip 1 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Oh so you're wanting

Stickers

and flagpoles?

[–] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 1 points 19 hours ago

Much more like it!

Still not anywhere near that maga territory though, gotta get all that on one car, plus some paint jobs for permanence and that flag pole needs to be permanently mounted to be remotely close to... Even 2016 maga.

But a much better attempt than I have seen before! Well done.
