  • Since conservatives always get around to politicizing everything, I’m wondering if conservatives don’t start agitating to have gas stations no longer put their prices on big signs you can read from several hundred yards away.

    Even the most low-info people that do any travel whatsoever are driving past signs that put the lie to conservative bootlickers talking about how we are a “golden age” and how they are working to overcome a supposed terrible economy that Biden gave them. The golden age has gas at $4+? Even complete dumbasses can usually recall that gas was not over $4 when donnie took office in Jan 2025.

    If the conservatives find a way to cover up gas prices and grocery stores are able to do dynamic pricing - two places where cost of living and inflation are staring most Americans right in the face right now as an everyday experience - they may be able to pull more shenanigans in the future.



  • I imagine that is what moved the fence-sitters, the apolitical, aka, the “center” and the “independents” - usually people that are extremely low-info.

    You combine oil prices and inflation and then: seeing donnie fussing over vanity projects like ballrooms, arches, reflecting pools and putting up gaudy gold shit in the WH, all while making 2+ BILLION in under 2years (assuming any of this broke through at all into the low-info bubble, that is) and I imagine that has to absolutely enrage even somebody mostly tuned out of everything else.
