In Case I’ve Been Too Subtle
After Trump/Vance’s horrifically racist and fascist Madison Square Garden rally the other night did everything it could to invite comparisons to the pro-Nazi rally held at the same venue in 1939, it feels imperative to me to go all-out in resisting that truly awful impending future.
As I saw someone say this morning on Bluesky (the non-evil alternative to Elon Musk’s X), it’s time to think about what you would have done if you’d been a German citizen before World War II, and do that now.
As I said to my neighbors who saw me walking down the street with an orange and camo Kamala / Walz sign larger than I am, “Maybe I’m going to get pogromed for this. But I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it.”
I made these three signs and have packing-taped them to my bike trailer, which has been my main mode of interaction with my mostly conservative neighbors since I moved to this SE Michigan town ten years ago. They’re all used to having to slow down to avoid killing me in the street; now, as they hit the brakes on their big ole gas guzzling coal rolling dogwhistle-emblazoned jacked-up F350s, maybe I’ll give them a little pause.
I made easily printable PDFs of all of them in case you’d like to download and print a bunch of your own:
