If yall are going to these events, please be fucking polite drivers and not assholes to whoever lives around where the event is. Being cunts is something DJT supporters are notorious for and its clear that Harris and Walz are running a positive campaign. Keep it kind. Keep it clean. Keep it positive.

I agree but it’s important to note that it won’t matter if it’s 1 person that’s an asshole or a majority. Cons will claim whatever benefits them.

I dont give a shit about con's or their claims. I give a shit about the community.

Cons will just make shit up anyway, so there is not reason to do or not do anything in particular because of how they will react.

The reason to not be an asshole is because not being an asshole is the right thing to do.

Just because they're ready and willing to throw their own shit and claim it was someone else does not mean we should be giving them more ammo. 😶🤷🏽‍♂️

I said I agreed. I’ve just talked to a lot of people that get discouraged over stuff we can’t control.
