The conservative version is the same but removes the poster from the left window.

Fucking weird that someone would even feel the need to put the left one in their shop window 😳

That’s what happens when hateful racists wage war on an entire group of people.

I went to a Cracker Barrel a few years ago and they has a sign that read "Proudly serving people of color since 1973" or whatever year it had. Weird brag

That is unbelievably odd!

It's to counter the racism, biggotry, and xenophobia present in pockets of American culture.

These shitty types of people avoid or hide within large cities - everyone is typically fine in these places. But small towns can sometimes have a serious problem with this if they are too "red" (Conservative).

In short, pockets of America are very tribal. People bond over similarities, and their shared disapproval of anything different, or out of the ordinary.

This woulda been way funnier if you'd Photoshopped out the text in the windows too.

[–] Zoboomafoo 10 points 6 months ago

I think those are two different shops

[–] JE2SJWMKLS@lemm.ee 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That would be Capitalism not Liberalism.

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 9 points 6 months ago

the two are fundamentally inseparable

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 3 points 6 months ago

It's rare a agree with you but today I do

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 1 points 6 months ago

So where you come from, you welcome no races, no religions, no countries of origin, no sexual orientations, no genders; you don't stand with them and they're not safe, and the restrooms are a complete free for all?

Everyone can use toilet. Nobody can use shop
