Thankfully no one cares when Forbes posts their hit list every year.

I think the cards are hilarious but they have something the other referenced sets (Iraqi, COVID) do not: silhouette targets on the back.

I am by no means defending their removal but cards but maybe don't give them a plausible excuse to remove them by implying that these cards are for shooting??

Yeah. Threats are speech that attracts repercussions.

Having the suit one corner and the rank in the other is going to make these a bastard to play games with. How would you hold them in your hand so's that you can see both?

If all the suits have their own color then it would be OK to play with I think. A little annoying at first but playable

Just highlights once more that we are ruled and suppressed by the rich.
