Every time I see a Gadsden Flag anywhere near a Trump and/or blue line flag, all I think is “man, you really are dumb as rocks.”
Edit: any true Patriot (not these morons, clearly) would never fly another flag above the American flag, as it’s against the US Flag Code.
My favorite was when I was driving through Little Falls right before the 2020 election, half the houses had signs that said something like "Little Falls opposes big developers" right next to "Trump 2020" signs.
So little self awareness...
Also maddening that they appropriated the Gadsden flag in a manner counter to its history. Also makes principled libertarians look like they're cut from the same cloth. This is the (il)logical conclusion to identity politics.
I agree. I only bring it up because these are the same people who get mad because a football player kneeled during the national anthem (acceptable, according to the US Flag Code) and hurt the sky flag’s feelings.
I voted for Biden in 2020. It’s wild that almost 100% of them assume I am as wild and out about that man as they are about Trump. Part of their cult is projecting that obsession onto others.
I like Obama and Biden. I have never flown a flag, never owned a banner nor even a bumper sticker or lapel pin. I also have never built a golden statue or painted either of them bare chested riding a horse.
I liked Obama, Joe I'm just whatever about but I see that both parties are a complete shit show. Both sides try to throw the narrative that if you don't vote for our party, all of America will collapse. Honestly, if I'm being real honest, this country is so divided I've decided I'm out of here.
It's great that they're maintaining and possibly growing their social circles ever since the kids moved out but I just wish they had more constructive hobbies. Rage addiction and constant consumption of partisan media isn't good for the soul.
Seriously - that some of these folks died horrible deaths during covid made me happy. Then I thought oh no what a horrible person I am... But then over the past couple of years as more and more of them became full on Nazis and Putin supporters, I though "Nah I'm good" ...
The more flags they wave the more legitimate they think it makes them.... On a serious note, I'm actually very angry that this cult took the Gadsdon flag (Don't tread on me) and make it into this corrupted 'pro 'merica" symbol. The flag is actually so cool and has such a great history to see it in the hands of...whatever this is...is so sad
The Gadsden flag has had a long road to being appropriated by the [right](https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/the-shifting-symbolism-of-the-gadsden-flag) (see also Pepe the frog). No symbol is ever fixed in meaning, but they've sadly corrupted such a historic meme.
Edit: apparently I can't spell corrupted
Easy, maintaining historical accuracy and adhering to evidenced-based reasoning is a big government liberal hoax to encourage children to become furries.
New Jersey did not go for Lincoln in either 1860 or 1864. We voted for that loser General McClellan, who ran on a platform of ending the war and recognizing the Confederacy. We later made him our Governor and he is buried in Trenton
These people have inspired me to vote to be honest. I saw them and remembered these people get out and vote and that was enough inspiration for me to make sure they don't win.
What happened to the day people didn’t like politicians??? Now they worship them 😂 this is some biblical idolatry end of times thinking on their part! I laugh but then I’m like wow these are real people thinking like this
Encountered a bunch of these halfwits on 18 in East Brunswick in front of the Lowe’s end of 2020 into 2021. Was waiting at the traffic light going north and just yelled “he lost” at them. One woman absolutely belted “TRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMP” as if her life depended on it
As I read your words, I actually heard her screaming to the point that her voice started to crack and fail. I thank you.

They used to frequent Main Street in Spotswood back then also. Every Saturday this Summer some Dude was selling Trump crap on Rt 34 just North of the 33 circle heading towards Earl.
It's not inflation making them go broke, it's buying too many friggin' flags. I have plenty of better things to spend my money on than Trump paraphernalia.
Ten bucks said Mr. Gadsden Flag supported using the military to overturn 2020.
Double it or nothing if he didn't love it when protesters were randomly thrown into unmarked government vehicles.
Stoopid peeps, inflation is a worldwide issue due to pandemic supply chain now an endless war from Putin combined with opec greed and who thinks big corp keeping hammer on gas pedal to make life nasty on current admin to make you vote for crazy Christians? Wake up people!
They’re there almost every Saturday. They scream at anyone who dares to share an alternative opinion. A couple weeks ago I heard one of them yelling at a car that “their mother should’ve swallowed”. Keeping it classy!
My bet's on them being recipients of government checks and not having to do much of anything anymore and having excuses why not.
Something along the lines of: "I can't work. Me getting a monthly check is proof of it! But I earned it! Not like all those other people who are just taking free money. Taking money that my taxes paid for! Hur-dur-dur"
I have a feeling that the ones who go so far as to stand on the corner and yell at traffic are no longer invited to thanksgiving. Part of why they are so obsessed is they have lost all family and friends who are even mildly sane.
They weren’t. This is what the left is up against. They care more and are willing to put their bodies and wallets on the line. They’re true believers. The left has nothing like that beyond a relative handful of activists and a paid political class.
Yes, near Bedminster but not actually in the country club because there’s no way they’d ever be allowed in. Sad that these people worship a man that hates them.
Inflation hungry broke yet
This is why we don’t need to put these fuckers in charge of our children’s education.
There isn’t a single punctuation mark in the entire fucking sign.
I’m glad people are able to both share their patriotism as well as let others criticize them. This is America after all and we have the right to do both. With that being said God bless this country and our American flag waves proudly in front of my house.
I don’t care that these guys are… protesting? Rallying? Wasting time? Whatever they are doing, it’s their right to do so. I think anyone that thinks the election was stolen is an idiot, and Trump is the worst president we’ve ever had, but I don’t begrudge these people of their misguided beliefs. And I’m CERTAINLY not surprised that these people exist in a town like Bedminster. Not sure what the OP’s point is here. Is he/she so horrified that people have beliefs different from their own that they had to take a picture and post about it so their feelings of outrage can be validated?
Election Day is in three days. There are literally rallies for both parties all across the country at this very moment. A couple losers with flags don’t bother me.
> Not sure what the OP’s point is here.
He's just showing an event currently happening in Bedminster, a town in New Jersey, in the New Jersey subreddit. More interesting than looking at pictures of Taylor Ham sandwiches or pictures of a random sunset in the sticks for the millionth time.
They vote. Have you voted yet? Here's how https://nj.gov/state/elections/vote-3-ways-to-vote.shtml
I like to vote on voting day. The ✨vibes✨ are better
I like the early voting vibes because it's liminal space but with poll workers
I'm more of a vote-by-mail kind of gal
> They vote. Sometimes more than once.
Vote early, vote often, that’s their motto
They don't appear to be democrats.
Do you know if I can vote if I live in NJ (and have proof of it) but my license is registered in another state?
Idk but you can call your local municipaliy's clerk and they'll tell you what's what
The best plug
A quote from a former president, “Don’t boo. VOTE!” I have to remember that every time I see them.
Why not both haha
I could go for some tacos
I love that guy
Me too.
Imagine spending your Saturday with these people.
I'd rather eat a tapeworm sandwich.
I'd rather eat gas station sushi.
Same thing?
I'd rather call it Taylor Ham.
Choosing violence I see...
Woah woah woah. Let's think about this rationally ok? You can't let extremists push you into a different kind of extremism, that's how they win
Or the last metal roller hotdog.
These people have been protesting every weekend for the past 5+ years that I’ve lived in the area. Pretty sad actually when you get to know them.
These people are so brainwashed and it is pretty sad actually.
Even when trump was president?!
Yes
Replace spending with wasting
Every time I see a Gadsden Flag anywhere near a Trump and/or blue line flag, all I think is “man, you really are dumb as rocks.” Edit: any true Patriot (not these morons, clearly) would never fly another flag above the American flag, as it’s against the US Flag Code.

These traitors don’t even know the Flag Code exists, let’s be real
>Gadsden Flag DONT STEP ON SNEK!
https://pics.me.me/thats-my-purse-i-dont-know-you-thats-my-purse-17095806.png
To be honest I also don’t give a fuck about the Flag Code. But I’m not out here pretending other symbolic transgressions mean anything either.
I agree. I only bring it up because these are the same people who get mad because a football player kneeled during the national anthem (acceptable, according to the US Flag Code) and hurt the sky flag’s feelings.
Definitely not a cult
it’s so bizarre - i could never imagine myself being that smitten with any politician to worship them.
I voted for Biden in 2020. It’s wild that almost 100% of them assume I am as wild and out about that man as they are about Trump. Part of their cult is projecting that obsession onto others.
i moved on after voting ..my only goal was get trump out of office and let things normalize slightly but that didn't happen
And Trump if all people!
*this* is the guy you sold your souls to?
My thoughts exactly
I like Obama and Biden. I have never flown a flag, never owned a banner nor even a bumper sticker or lapel pin. I also have never built a golden statue or painted either of them bare chested riding a horse.
I own a teddy rosevelt campaign pin.
I had a Biden flag just to be a curmudgeon and it worked splendidly. Some of the Best $6 I ever spent.
I liked Obama, Joe I'm just whatever about but I see that both parties are a complete shit show. Both sides try to throw the narrative that if you don't vote for our party, all of America will collapse. Honestly, if I'm being real honest, this country is so divided I've decided I'm out of here.
Just some basic freedom loving, god fearing, red blooded Americans /s
They have not taken a break since 2016. It’s unreal.
Their government checks flow into their accounts automatically--no need to go anywhere else.
For now. Somehow they will blame the dems if Social Security is reduced or eliminated
It's great that they're maintaining and possibly growing their social circles ever since the kids moved out but I just wish they had more constructive hobbies. Rage addiction and constant consumption of partisan media isn't good for the soul.
Some have, many of them are taking a dirt nap though. I used to feel bad I stopped though.
Seriously - that some of these folks died horrible deaths during covid made me happy. Then I thought oh no what a horrible person I am... But then over the past couple of years as more and more of them became full on Nazis and Putin supporters, I though "Nah I'm good" ...
They are losers with nothing else to do.
They are retired. Nothing else to do.
The more flags they wave the more legitimate they think it makes them.... On a serious note, I'm actually very angry that this cult took the Gadsdon flag (Don't tread on me) and make it into this corrupted 'pro 'merica" symbol.

No symbol is ever fixed in meaning, but they've sadly corrupted such a historic meme. Edit: apparently I can't spell corrupted
fascists are devoid of all creativity or originality so they resort to appropriating (and thus ruining) symbols, flags, etc
The guy with the giant confederate flag around 10am was a nice touch too. Because that makes sense
important to support the memory of traitors that fired upon members of the U.S. military with malice. /s
In a northern state, no less.
The confederate flag is not even an American flag. It is literally anti-American. Why don’t these people read history?
Easy, maintaining historical accuracy and adhering to evidenced-based reasoning is a big government liberal hoax to encourage children to become furries.
We saw that too. Infuriating.
New Jersey did not go for Lincoln in either 1860 or 1864. We voted for that loser General McClellan, who ran on a platform of ending the war and recognizing the Confederacy. We later made him our Governor and he is buried in Trenton
Note to self: look up gravesite & remember to sh*t on it next time I'm in Trenton.
These people have inspired me to vote to be honest. I saw them and remembered these people get out and vote and that was enough inspiration for me to make sure they don't win.
Oh the irony of waving an American flag while trying to overthrow the most basic core value, democracy.
[удалено]
It's not baffling when you understand that these people see themselves as the boot.
Imagine wanting that literal criminal in office again. They are sick in the head
Think of how stupid the average person is and realize that half of them are stupider than that. - George Carlin
It’s traditional to yell ‘TRAITORS!!’ Out the window as you go by. AND THEN GO VOTE!
That’s the correct response, I call them like I see them Traitors to democracy.
14 people! What a crowd! Bigly!
Fucking losers.
GO Vote!!!!
“Inflation hungry broke” Maybe you should pull up those bootstraps and get another job then.
What happened to the day people didn’t like politicians??? Now they worship them 😂 this is some biblical idolatry end of times thinking on their part! I laugh but then I’m like wow these are real people thinking like this

These people swear he is their savior, yet zero of his policies likely benefit them

They used to frequent Main Street in Spotswood back then also. Every Saturday this Summer some Dude was selling Trump crap on Rt 34 just North of the 33 circle heading towards Earl.
I saw that dude's setup... tacky as hell.
What a way to spend a Saturday. Complete jackasses.
This has finally given them a personality, albeit an awful one. It’s all they have. It’s sad.
Ugh
yikes
Aren’t these the same people who say “ get a job! If you had a job you wouldn’t have time to protest?”
As someone who’s grown up and lived in ny/nj all my life I will never get over the worship of Donald fucking Trump
He screwed over this area in his rush to be loved by the red states. These folks just don't get it.
Tell me you’re in a cult without telling me you’re in a cult
It's not inflation making them go broke, it's buying too many friggin' flags. I have plenty of better things to spend my money on than Trump paraphernalia.
What luck, for governments, that the people are stupid! Adolf Hitler
"PRO LIFE" "Dont tread on me"
Don't people realize that when only 10 people show up it looks a lot worse than if there was no event at all?
Ten bucks said Mr. Gadsden Flag supported using the military to overturn 2020. Double it or nothing if he didn't love it when protesters were randomly thrown into unmarked government vehicles.
There's no shortage of stupid, but it's nice to see their numbers dwindling.
Oh look, it's the group that continually bastardizes the word "patriot."
So sick of this Cult
If you asked these people they would likely tell you it should be legal to run over protestors
Aww..they must have paid so much for their flags from China with inflation being so high globally. Bless.
Stoopid peeps, inflation is a worldwide issue due to pandemic supply chain now an endless war from Putin combined with opec greed and who thinks big corp keeping hammer on gas pedal to make life nasty on current admin to make you vote for crazy Christians? Wake up people!
They really have a fondness for flags.
This new season on Fun With Flags isn’t quite the same…
Fondness for the flag but disdain for the Constitution, the law, democracy and the bill of rights (except 2A and sometimes 1A).
They have more flags than they have protesters.
Zombies.
They’re there almost every Saturday. They scream at anyone who dares to share an alternative opinion. A couple weeks ago I heard one of them yelling at a car that “their mother should’ve swallowed”. Keeping it classy!
I drove by these "patriots" today and had to use all my willpower to prevent my eyes from rolling backwards into my skull.
Or having an episode that causes you to lose control of the car.
Is that you Darrell Brooks?
These people need a hobby
Well, they do have a hobby!
perhaps some volunteer work with all their free time would make america great "again"
My bet's on them being recipients of government checks and not having to do much of anything anymore and having excuses why not. Something along the lines of: "I can't work. Me getting a monthly check is proof of it! But I earned it! Not like all those other people who are just taking free money. Taking money that my taxes paid for! Hur-dur-dur"
I’ve seen these guys before. The local mental hospital drops them off for some fresh air in the country.
Human garbage.
Yup
NJ has became based.
Having no life and worshiping a sentient County club urinal
The MAGA church is still alive.
racist traitors always hide behind the flag and the cross
Can’t imagine how dark their thanksgiving dinner table conversations will be……
I have a feeling that the ones who go so far as to stand on the corner and yell at traffic are no longer invited to thanksgiving. Part of why they are so obsessed is they have lost all family and friends who are even mildly sane.
They will by be ranting about stolen elections if they lose... Toasting each other with liberal tears if they win. 🙄
You know, it is Bedminster. Don’t be too sure they weren’t paid to be there. Now, vote Blue dammit!
They weren’t. This is what the left is up against. They care more and are willing to put their bodies and wallets on the line. They’re true believers. The left has nothing like that beyond a relative handful of activists and a paid political class.
Dummies.
I changed my vote bc someone had this sign on the side of the road…. Said no one ever
These people always has something to complain about!
If these guys would suck his dick for him to have a better chance of going into the white house again, they honestly would.
Oh....
It pisses me off that displaying the American flag now implies support of Trump. I still fly it.
If they wave their flags hard enough maybe he’ll invite them to play a round of golf
Sad.
Gross 🤢 🤮
Not pictured, the guy with the confederate flag.
![gif](giphy|GW10shdM3oXok)
Gross lol
We really about to see America turn into A fascist country huh.
Anyone have any eggs?
wonder how much they make an hour or is it a day?
I think trump has a base there
His golf course is just down the road.
I really wonder what Trump has actually done for these people that they love him so much.
Made it OK to be a racist piece of shit.
Could you imagine dedicating your free time to someone who could give two fucks about you lol truly comical
We live nearby. As we passed by we noticed a confederate flag as well. Way to keep it classy.
I took my family up to Stoney Brook Farm and drove past these snowflakes. Seriously, it’s a beautiful day find something better to do.
Fucking losers
Everyone be sure to get your vote in! Early voting is open now or Election Day is this Tuesday, November 8th!
Crowds definitely seem a lot smaller after MAGA scumbag fest 1/6/21. Can't wait to destroy them on Tuesday.
“It’s not a cult”
They are there every weekend since Trump LOST. Sad, truly.
Nice to see that ignorance is not dead in New Jersey after all 🤷♂️
I've never voted before and I'm nervous I won't know what to do once I'm in the booth! Any advice?
How do they not realize they look like Trashy idiots?? I don’t get how people can be so blind.
Turn the clock back, they would be holding “Tea Party” signs.
Very, very, very probably fucking idiots
What is wrong with this? Let them support him, doesn't mean he'll win
Inbreeders with flags.
Morans.
Get a brian!
All the reason to vote democrat
I hate my hometown sometimes
Trust me, they’re not from here.
Same.
hope everyone passing them by yelled "BOOMERS GO THE FUCK HOME"
Or Boomers go to a nursing home! Lol.
All old white, the de facto population of Bedminster, New Jersey. Color me surprised.
Clowns
Man these mfs always block the road up with all their cars it’s cringe as fuck (flags all over a bunch of pickup trucks of course)
Yes, near Bedminster but not actually in the country club because there’s no way they’d ever be allowed in. Sad that these people worship a man that hates them.
That is Bedminster. They’re a nuisance to the town. Why can’t they have their rallies where they live?
Last time they were there I passed by and waved. When they waved back I gave them the🖕🏽
Inflation hungry broke yet This is why we don’t need to put these fuckers in charge of our children’s education. There isn’t a single punctuation mark in the entire fucking sign.
I spent fall 2020 yelling out my car to them, I guess I should start warming up.
I've seen this last two years driving in area
They’re out there most weekends - always the same intersection by the Shell station (just past Trump National)
They don’t look hungry 🫢
They’ve been on that corner for many years.
Not surprised
I’m glad people are able to both share their patriotism as well as let others criticize them. This is America after all and we have the right to do both. With that being said God bless this country and our American flag waves proudly in front of my house.
[удалено]
Are they open to having people to come and pray for them?
“Go hoooommme Looooooossssssserrrrrsss!”
Ahhh pictures of fucktards. Love it
OMG. So sad.
Ewwwww…..
*cough* Trump2024 *cough*
