I think this may be a relatively effective angle for making MAGA second guess themselves. The “did I do a good job daddy?” characterization is accurate but also pushed hard against their completely unearned but overactive sense of individualism and independence.

Wonder if anybody’s had any luck making red hats deeply uncomfortable with themselves this way.

Back in 2017 I knew a rightoid who this absolutely worked on, same with all the dipshits he hung around. They'd tag each other in FB comments to try and prove their manliness while I and a few others would just reply with memes similar to the one above, one of their girlfriends confirmed how pissed off it made them and how they'd see the for days about it

I need big pile of stickers or magnets of this to plan on slapping on trucks but chickening out and finding them bleached and brittle in the glove box years later.

They can take a magnet off much more easily than a sticker. Not that I would dream of suggesting you do such a thing...

That's mighty democratic of you.
