My brother basically does whatever his wife tells him to do and his wife is a hard left wacky doodle. So for his birthday I got him a weinermobile sign. It was his 80th and I tried to get the weinermobile itself to visit his house but they’re not doing that because COVID.

“We believe in science.”

Put it next to “The Germans are the Master Race”

This is a Universalist "Church" near me:

Recently, I was driving by that church, and they were having a fund-raising car wash. There were young teenage girls with signs laughing, yelling, jumping enthusiastically up and down, waving the car wash signs, looking for all the world as if they were raising money for their cheering squad, softball team or something like that.

As I drove by, I could see they were having a car wash to support Black Lives Matter.

Those poor, young, brainwashed fools are who Rush Limbaugh used to refer to as "Skulls full of mush".

It saddened me, and really stuck with me.

I want a sign that says, “In this house we don’t care what you believe”. Those “We Believe” signs are still up around the neighborhood. They’re so trashy.

Usually the people who post such drivel are the most hateful racist intolerant jerks you will ever meet.

There is a home in my town with a big banner hanging from the port porch which reads: “A diverse community is a strong community.” The lawn has had no attention whatsoever for a year and it’s the worst looking house on its block.

The one I liked the best was an NRA sticker in the window that said something to the effect of *This house is defended by a gun owning member of the NRA four days out of each week. You guess which four.*

When I see these colorful yard signs they seem that the people are claiming they love everyone, but they hate you.

Put up a Sign that says “THE ONLY GOOD COMMIE IS A DEAD COMMIE” and every DEMONCRAT who sees it will take it as a threat.

Virtue signaling is cheap

It’s free

The Woke are the new church lady

No shit when I was a kid religious folks pointed fingers some....holy rollers

Now the woke occupy the smug self righteous perch of superiority

It’s the same motivation

To feel accepted and to be morally superior

It happens even here...

Remember the old harpie packs that roamed the forum screaming for zots over criticizing Bush or Sarah Palin or being a bigot or racist or anti semite or any smear imaginable or if you were anti Bush amnesty....yes it is true kids

The main target were paleos like me and Matt bracken and Marine Inspector or Jackelope Breeder or objectivists and libertarians like OWK or tpaine or mercuria ....and so forth

It was a much bigger tent here then...but what I noticed was otherwise good posters would go wobbly and join the herd simply from fear or wanting to be accepted

It’s human frailty

And virtue signaling so easily converges there....

I think anyhow
