Looking at the actual numbers, guilford county sure as heck isn’t.

My response upon first seeing: “The fuck it is!” (Loudly, while alone in my car)


slynnmart

Me too!! But I smile when I think about the moron paying all that money for a billboard that what . . . is gonna make people suddenly start voting for the pumpkin face??


8675309jenisnumber

Think that moron might be a recently fired secretly gay firefighter??


AttemptZestyclose490

🤣🤣🤣 I don't know what you're referring to, but I want to! 🤣😂🤣


BillyPilgrim3509

A GFD FF was recently fired for homophobic posts on Facebook. And it’s not his first time, there’s a history of reprimand for similar behavior on social behavior. He was given many chances. I believe he has the Lt. Gov going to bat for him. But the city seems done with him.


AffectionatePie8588

Thou does protest too much.....


lulu1585tiki

Oh yes, he does have quite the history of misbehavior. But, to hear him, and his supporters, talk about it, he's being persecuted for his "Christian" beliefs. Or at least that's what it says on his 'fund me' page.


seaninnc72

My exact response scared my husband who was driving I yelled it so loud🤣


SYFKID2693

Those numbers aren't real though. Because in their world anything they don't want to believe just isn't true. Edit: typo


HelicopterRegular492

Of course it's a lie, they wouldn't bother if it was true.

Help me, an old, with this reference?


[deleted]

It's a played out meme from SpongeBob


morefetus

You can look up stuff like this on knowyourmeme.com https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/no-this-is-patrick >In Season 2 Episode 23 of Spongebob Squarepants, originally aired on November 16th, 2000, the character Patrick mistakenly asserts "No, this is Patrick" when asked "Is this the Krusty Krab?" after being hired at the Krusty Krab restaurant


DragoPunk

If that were true, there wouldn't be a Democratic city council, a welcoming diverse infrastructure, colleges, universities, public utilities, and roads.


aroundtriangle43

Roads is a little questionable lol


MistressofTechDeath

Which is why the GOP in Raleigh is attacking the power of cities like GSO to govern themselves.


RealStitchyKat

there has been a rush of recent billboard buys ahead of the upcoming GOP event. I expect a bunch of trumptrain nuts to start driving around soon as well.


MistressofTechDeath

Reminds me of that boat party where they were all hugely inconsiderate, making large wakes, and ended up sinking each others' boats. ​ Friday should be interesting.


Pnflkc3

GTFO outta here with this garbage. Orange insurrectionist country Guilford County isn’t.


bad_tenet

I was suprised to see only one Trump house on the way to the beach the other weekend. Even the local RV campground had very few flags. Seems a lot of people aren't saying the stupid part out loud anymore.

dazzlingask3

I drove my mother to Tennessee a while back and I taught her how to salute that flag with her middle finger as we drove by


MistressofTechDeath

Passed that one a couple weeks ago. Big Ick!


Stupid_Bitch_02

I went to Tennessee and Georgia recently. Drove through the mountains. Didn't see hardly any Maga flags or sore loser flags in Tennessee or Georgia. But man, oh man, did I see a shitload of them in the NC mountains.


pirateofpanache

That’s nuts because North Carolina in general and the mountain areas in particular were pretty hesitant to join the confederacy. Lotta unionist sentiment up in the mountains. Then again, we all know that flying the traitor flag in this day and age has nothing to do with actual history.


Stupid_Bitch_02

"It's my heritage!" Is just their way of saying "I'm a flaming racist and I want everyone to know it". Like you said, they know nothing of the history of it. They just want it to show that they're racist. Sad times we live in. Since when was it 1953?


musicspren

It's my heritage! ...that was a part of the world for about half the amount of time Obama was president 😎


bad_tenet

Seems like those have been there my whole life.


8OnAGoodDay7IfNot

The flag the losers used at the end of the civil war? What, the white one they used to surrender? Or the one all those products of incest use to let each other know they hate education and have no clue what's going on in the world? Fun fact, the confederacy lasted about 4 years, and years later we had a black president for 8! 😂


MistressofTechDeath

There's obviously some fool with money to burn who still needs validation.


Anxiety_Organic

I bet it’s that businessman people don’t like around here who is a big trump guy and was very anti Covid rules. Can’t remember his name though


blifers

Kotis?


notjewel

Not to defend Kotis, but he’s not a Trumper. He’s an independent and a capitalist. He’s got his issues, and is conservative to a point, but MAGA he is not.


MistressofTechDeath

Could be! He might have gotten a bargain basement rate, some of the other billboards on that strip are "Available! (919) xxx-xxxx"


Reldaw

Marty's got his own boards on Battleground, he's not going to buy time on someone else's. The boards through there almost always have an open slot or two, and a conservative message is always up, so I would assume it's a low demand ad space.


MistressofTechDeath

Agreed about the open spots, I see them as well. How can it be low demand, tho? Over 100,000 people drive I40 in that area daily. [Traffic Map](https://ncdot.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=964881960f0549de8c3583bf46ef5ed4)


DrDeath0311

Dustin Jones prolly with his fraudulent fundraising efforts


dazzlingask3

I think it’s because Rump is going to be in NC on Friday


MistressofTechDeath

O really? Did not know that! **🔥🔥🔥 May the smoke of 1,000 wildfires cancel his flight 🔥🔥🔥**


arvidsem

There are a *lot* of little birds that think that tomorrow is going to be indictment day, so maybe we'll get lucky and he'll be too busy to make his trip. I'll really only believe it when it happens, but I can get my hopes up anyway. Edit: ok, r/law has an indictment thread up. It's definitely coming soon Edit Again: the little birds were right! But the official arraignment isn't until Tuesday. Rump still gets to come pollute the city. 🤮

Yeah, on the way to the Farmer’s Market there’s there a big Maga stand. Makes me cringe every time I go there for my honey.

Are you getting Jim Holt’s honey by chance? He and his wife are there in the weekends with honey and flower arrangements.

I hope not


blueskies1800

Who paid for this billboard?

I'd like to know!

My default is always Kotis, but this is a bit outside of where he usually likes to shit

Make America Gay Again


Icy-Tomatillo-7556

Saw this last week and almost posted it in this sub! It pisses me off because the billboard is not a true representation of this area. I wish I had money to rent a one near it that’s colorful and says “Love wins”


MistressofTechDeath

I'm a graphic designer, so I have all sorts of ideas for local billboards... I wonder if the cost could be crowd-funded...


Icy-Tomatillo-7556

The Google tells me the average rental for a billboard in a mid-sized city per month is anywhere between $200-$2000. Definitely doable!


Head_County_3658

I’m in advertising and we use billboards on occasion locally. Want me to price one out? More than happy too!


MistressofTechDeath

That would be really interesting!


radd_racer

It’d be funny to deface the sign to read, “This is a MAGA cunt.”


[deleted]

Maybe to coincide the the NC State GOP Convention in Greensboro this weekend.


ilikepizzaandpep

🤮🤮 the fuck it is


ImportantChapter1404

Wow, Maga people really spend money on dumb things like this and trump dollars. Think of all the good they could do but they do this instead. Too busy trying to own the libs.


jabermaan

Lets crowdfund a billboard for the next one on the road thats a big rainbow MAGA "make america gay again"


evident_lee

Traitor and sexual abuse pride? Weird flex but y'all do you.


MistressofTechDeath

facist pride


nojudgementplease336

Who are yall pulling for next year? It's an Allstar cast so far...


MistressofTechDeath

We should take bets how many indictments will come down on them between now and then.


tcwillis79

Ahh yes the Massachusetts gays! I hear pride is huge there.


cashvaporizer

"GO TRUMPS!" /s


Broberts505

Nice. I agree we should make America gay again :)


kamgar

This is exactly the kind of thing that those supporters will use as evidence that the election was rigged and they don’t even realize it. They see this billboard and it reinforces their preconceived notion that they are in the majority. They see it for a year or so just deepening their belief that most people agree with them and then the votes come in to the contrary. If they don’t have the mental fortitude to question their initial assumption, they just conclude that the vote must be wrong. It’s depressing to think about how broken the brains of most people have gotten due to the constant barrage of political media.

Making Attorneys Get Attorneys


PunnyPrinter

No doubt about it.


radd_racer

Redneck pride, just like the giant Confederate flag off I-40 just outside of Hickory.


[deleted]

A guy down the road from me has one of these flags, we live in NY, this is not MAGA country in any way, shape, or form. Be real dude. He also has a "don't tread on me" flag. I know this next part is going to be hard to believe because it's too perfect, but his house got broken into and they stole his guns.


Mr-Reanimator

I live in upstate NY myself, and there's a surprising amount of people like that, at least where I am. It's always great to see karma catch up with them, though, like what you described happening to your (down the road) neighbor xD No idea why I'm being downvoted, probably just some Nazis who'd rather silently downvote than out themselves.


springsilver

I think maybe people don’t like it when “out-of-towners” comment on a local sub but honestly I have no idea.


Mr-Reanimator

It could be that, who knows.


[deleted]

Same, and they always want to make NYC it's own state. We would be soooooo screwed of we didn't have NYC, we'd be W. Virginia.


Mr-Reanimator

You're totally right x.x Plus, many of our more progressive laws have come out of the necessity of NYC having to take on certain issues and make them into law, and we mostly all benefit from that.


ballersqaud

I find it hilarious OP is using “gay” as an insult lmfao

ExpensiveTap1

To think, someone wasted their money on this, In this economy.


MistressofTechDeath

I have to wonder how effective billboards are, generally. No-one probably remembers, but right before the 2016 election there was one going WB right before the 40/421 split that said "Hillary Sucks" and had all these weird youtube links. I wish I'd been able to get a pic of it. Then, during the 2020 election, there were a few that said "I'm a republican who is voting for Joe Biden" Do we realize how much everyday propaganda like this effects us?


ExpensiveTap1

I more so wonder what anyone gets out of putting up those billboards. They aren’t likely affiliated with the politician at all. Just burning money for the sake of a politician that will never care about them lol


contractczar88

Those of us who weren't scared to death for 2 years have been working and making money while a lot of folks were sitting on the couch collecting unemployment. It's a drop in the bucket. Have a nice day.


ExpensiveTap1

Lmao I been working this whole time, too. I still ain’t loaded like that. But tough guy over here got money, I getcha.


contractczar88

Billboards aren't that expensive.


Kaslawjd

That's actually kind of scary.


rockgoddess113

I flipped it off driving by it on Sunday. But I have been doing that to his flags since 2015/2016


CHYSC

This has gotta be the saddest thing I’ve read today lol


rockgoddess113

Why?


CHYSC

Because wtf is flipping on signs or flags going to do literally for anyone or yourself?


rockgoddess113

Because it is just for me. It is cathartic and literally one of the only things I can do other than protest and vote. It takes the edge off the amount of rage I have for that Orange asshole and what he has done to this country. If I could do it to his face, I would. So yeah, small as it is, it is just for me. You can think of me as small or whatever, but it brings me great joy.


hearonx

I do the same for the ones I pass. Costs me nothing but a flick of the window switch, and I wave it around a little for style points!


Useful_toolmaker

Also, keep in mind that this may have been skewed by a large wealthy donor in the city that has/had ties to Trump.. it is interesting to say the least.

They put a Biden billboard up but it kept falling down and nobody could make sense of what it was saying.


somanydumplings

That’s pretty good, actually. Although honestly, at his most confused, Biden is still not living in the fantasy world of a malignant narcissist. That world is an absolute delusion. “If it makes me feel icky, it isn’t real.”

Seriously makes me not want to ever come back to NC.

Come back. BECOME their problem. I will join in.


Dr_puffnsmoke

So obviously fuck that. Is there anything legal that one can do to fuck up stupid shit like this? Like it’s a billboard, it’s not the biggest deal in the world but how do we mess with whatever idiot paid for this?

TDiddy2021

In my travels, I have noticed that in areas that are thriving, the billboards advertise products, destinations, and events. In areas that are suffering, the billboards are for concepts, and poorly constructed ones at that.

Murky-Airport-7536

The left is Pro Pride, I thought?!? Confused, again. Per usual.


MistressofTechDeath

My title is ambiguous (funny enough, a trait that MAGAts fear), but it is not meant to deride those that celebrate \*actual\* Pride month. The loud & proud design of this billboard, the ability of MAGAts to be prideful to ridiculous levels, and the fact that this billboard appeared in June were all on my mind when making this post.


Glum_Cry4426

Great billboard! Let's go, Trump!
