    Rural Idaho is sure to love their new neighbors. Hope they keep their I Voted for This flags high.

      r/Conservative unironically thinks it’s great, so they probably do too.

      Fox told them it was, after all. We have always been at war with Eastasia.

        How can anyone know what that place thinks when every thread is a graveyard? I can’t take 30 remaining comments of 600 deleted seriously lol

          True lol

          Their ‘free speech’ seems to mean ‘freedom for me to be a bootlicking asshole and for the rest of you to shut up’

        If Fox News isn’t shitting on it, they won’t bat an eye. All sheep, no brains.

      I mean, rural Idaho is basically Qatar already. It’s just a christ-o-fascist tax haven for businesses hiding under a flag.

      I noticed every day there are less and less of those stupid flags up when I drive through rural areas

      Are those flags real, by the way? I saw some trolling with similar sentiment, but I wonder how many would be bold enough to put those up IRL?

        They definitely exist, but rare in my personal experience. There’s a large house near me surrounded by high, castle-style walls. Along the wall facing the street they have multiple flag posts displaying an american flag, a trump flag, a gadsden flag, and a “Yes I voted for this!” trump-like design flag. They used to rotate the flags with POW/MIA, Blue Line and others but it’s been pretty unchanged since inauguration.

        I’ve also seen a smaller banner flying from a cybertruck, once.
