It's a reasonable assumption. There might the occasional idiot out there who doesn't know, but the vast majority know exactly what they are communicating to everyone around them.

What does this flag mean? I see a few wealthy guys in my neighborhood/kids’ school who have this. Frankly, I judge them to be maga supporters. Am I wrong?

Not true. You need a commitment of a certain number of plate purchased before VA DMV will create one. I forget what the number is, but several years ago, a “Virginia wine country” plate didn’t make it.

Good. The wine is terrible.

Should be called spiked grape drink.

There’s already a pro-abortion plate.

Reflects mainstream values. Most of America is pro-abortion, at least in the sense of keeping it legal. Overwhelming support. One reason Republican political candidates are so terrified of the upcoming election.

Most Americans also want some restriction on abortion too. The pro rights people keep ignoring this. Something like a European abortion compromise would suit most Americans. Legal for first trimester but banned afterwards.

Most American's supported abortion under Roe which had restrictions.

Roe was very reasonable. Protection for women, up to a point.

Tell me you don't understand European healthcare without telling me you don't understand European healthcare.

I always laugh when I see those on foreign cars, especially British ones.

Those people have no concept what the Gadsden flag actually means. And all MAGA boosters hate America and all that it stands for. They’re all traitors.

Wasn’t aware there were any MAGA in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rican support for Biden over Trump is huge.

Unlike some of you I do know a thing or two about American history, warts and all. And while I have no love for Turnip and many of his voters, the irony is that their stances are much closer to the original American dedication to liberty. Muh freedom is actually about you know, freedom.

People will certainly disagree over extent of freedom and liberty. For some the freedom to abort babies is very important, for others it's a profoundly moral issue because all fetuses are future human lives. But outside abortion, it's hard to see the Democrats as more pro-America than Turnip's followers. Modern Democrats are much closer to the European social democratic model than the traditional liberal democracy of the United States, which, by the way, requires broad and open support for things like freedom of press, freedom of assembly, freedom of speech, the right to own guns, transparency, and rejection of a nanny state where unelected bureaucrats dictate policy. The modern Democratic party has substantially embraced restrictions on freedoms in the name of public safety, aka the combating disinformation campaigns and policies (despite that a lot of what was called disinformation turned out to be true, har har). And the COVID restrictions, and the refusal to question CDC despite that they were often contradictory and even wrong. Anyone who spends time in red areas versus blue areas knows that rainbow and BLM flags outnumber American flags in blue cities by a staggering amount whereas the reverse is true in Magaland. We know who the new gods are for the Democrats and it's not the stars and stripes.

I don't have a particular love for Turnip, as already mentioned, but nor do I find the Democrats particularly admirable and in many ways, they are much worse. But I am sympathetic to the don't tread on me if it means I just want to be left alone from busybodies.

I'm still sad they pulled this one.

Most people aren’t happy about Republicans treating women like trash.

Women treat women like trash and everyone knows it.

Yes, there are some Republican women too. Inexplicably.

Maybe in your part of the DMV, not in the real world.

Which real world? Ohio? Kansas?
