I just picture someone with a legitimate ear injury having to go to Walmart and getting praised and followed around like Brian from "Life of Brian".

"No I'm not a Trump supporter, I just nicked my ear doing yard work! Stop following me! Go away! Leave me ALONE!"

I was just about to reference the waving of a sandal from Life of Brian lol. These people in the picture are a few gourds short.

It also came to my mind.

Pop a vote blue sticker on it, confuse the lot of them.

— You are all individuals!
— We are all individuals!
— I’m not.
— Shh!

The same people couldn't wear a face mask to save the lives of their relatives.

The level of projection when calling others sheep.

One of those things that always boggles my mind.

Edit not you that I'm replying to, but the people IRL that called people sheep.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Don't forget that some also wore yellow stars because apparently hygiene=genocide.

The difference is they were told to wear a mask, which means they are standing up for their "rights" by not doing it.

The ear thing is to show how dedicated they are to the "cause," which is essentially opposition to what "the other side" is doing.

I haven't been keeping up with the news much, I know about Trump's ear but... Is the top image for real, are people actually doing this in the US?

You have to understand that these people are clinging to anything they can use to identify others who are in their in-group. MAGA hats, diapers, and now ear coverings.

Cults do the same thing and for the same reason.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 months ago

It’s the same virtue signaling they make fun of others for doing.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

There was a movie in 2008, "the Wave" (German: die Welle) about a teacher who wants to show his class how easily it is to start fascism by just let everyone wear white shirts for school.

It's the symbolic items from the same tier or color to identify a group, which makes it dangerous.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

It's the stigmata of the anti-Christ

[–] [email protected] 54 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I didn't think the MAGAs could find a stupider fashion accessory than those dumb, red hats but somehow, they found a way.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago

Life, uh, finds a way.

Trump wears a bandage, they follow.

Trump wears a diaper, crickets.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They actually wore diapers for a quick minute there.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 months ago (3 children)

They did?!

Well of course they fucking did.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

How to identify yourself as an idiot, step 1

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

There are many creatures in nature that warn others that they are toxic or dangerous by having bright colors, warning sounds or by wearing little red hats.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago (2 children)

They want to be him. Like they are dreaming they are Trump?

Or I can't really imagine why they'd do it.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Imagine aspiring to be a fat, old, rapist, orange loser 😂

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

But he's a rich(?) fat old rapist and orange loser.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Is he even rich? He has more debt than money at this point.

Those real bandages? If so, what a waste of resources.

That poor sheep did not have any choice. I cannot say the same about other characters in this picture.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

Hey, humans put those tags on sheep. Republicans do it to themselves.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

Mike Lindell should sell these as My Ear Pillow.

Single sheep rendition of "the nutcracker" feat cameraman.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

I believe he has downgraded to a standard bandaid or two. What will MAGAs next move be?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

If a TV drama did this with a Presidential candidate who had a cult-like grip on his followers to the point that they wore the same bandage as him, critics would say it was too on-the-nose.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

yall took too long on this one, should've been doing this from the moment the covid shit was found out to be a CIA plot.
