Voting is not a medium for self-expression, or at least not a good one. It's a tool to affect outcomes. People get angry about voting for harm reduction, but choosing to not even do that much just makes everything worse.

"2020 The Sequel"

Lmao, I don't think that phrase conveys what they think it conveys

Self expression is pasting someone else's name all over everything you own?

part of the GOP indoctrination is the mindset "you're not a true american if you're not shoving the party's ideology down everyone's throat"

How Christian of them.

I hate these groups where they have been conditioned to believe you hate America if you're not sporting at least 1 flag on your current clothing, a flag on your front porch and some form ideological decal on your vehicle.

How are there no truck nuts on that thing?

[–] curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 months ago

There is just one nut repeatedly plastered all over

Exactly. In most cultures, keeping who you’re voting for secret, unless specifically advocating for issues or having a discussion about the candidates themselves, is the social norm.

i can't imagine how not-exhausting that must make everything in life

Honestly if I could get away with it I’d pop that guys tires. His poster is misogynistic as fuck.
