Translation: I will not comply when law and order holds me accountable, but I will dance like a fucking cheerleader when the same law and order chokes an innocent person of color

Reminds me of that PJ "Boner Pills" Watson was trying to convince kids that conservative is the new punk rock.

I suppose defacing the flag is kind of rebellious. /s

When you (assumed) don't know who that is, and thus read that as "peanut butter and jelly boner pills" on offer from [Dr] Watson you start to question wtf that show was actually about, and how that tied into politics...

Well that's depressing and upsetting

He probably means he won't comply with wokeism or dei or the current right wing racist code word.

Not even a trumpsucker is dumb enough to do "yay cops" and "fuck you cops" right next to each other. They're confused.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

You'd be surprised at how dumb the average American is. And then imagine how dumb that suggests the lower half is.

But more seriously, this is exactly what "rules for thee and not for me" is. The cops are there to protect them and punish his rivals.

It's consistent. "Thin Blue Line" is a rogue movement that subverts state authority and resources.

Maybe they're trying to say "fuck the thin blue line"? 🥲

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

One can hope. But on a Mercedes 4matic, I'm assuming they're one of the types that thinks rage against the machine is a right wing band

I mean, the way the stickers are oriented, it looks like the skeleton hand is giving the finger to the thin blue line flag.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe, but this is pretty poorly thought out. Would you get a swastika tattoo and then some text next to it with an arrow, "I don't like this :-("

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

Nah if I'm gonna be tacky, I'm gonna be tacky with class and make it Calvin pissing on (thing I hate).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Well damn now I'm torn. Maybe I now like this person.

Isn't the trick with cops trying to search you/etc to comply/cooperate but never consent? Pot brothers at law have a good script for it. Or I guess if you're willing to throw your life away then by all means fully don't comply

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

To me this reads like he's flipping off a thin blue line flag.
