Context: they got real upset after the Trump shooting.
Now they're fully masks off.
I would have blocked them everywhere, the moment I got that email from them.
Absolutely crazy.

If I owned a company I would have a twitter committee.
Wasn't the guy who shot at trump a Magat? They need to give their speech on tolerance to a mirror.
What's this company even do? Do they make actual stickers? Is there a reason I'm supposed to know that they exist before this?
I don't see how those screenshots show a lie
Right? It says "I support trump, many people at sticker mule do" right above "many people at sticker mule support biden." Are we saying this screenshot is somehow proof of the absence of biden supporting employees in the entire company? (In the context that he's no longer running for anything to "support," I suppose that would be technically correct, and I personally find that funny, but still lol.)
He did say 'many' not 'all' and that he, personally supported him, so no lie then showed that he supports him with the selfie. The reactions show why his third sentence was said (the one where he states that he and others were afraid to admit their support). It is very possible that I don't understand where the lie is, though. I'm very tired. I've always found politics in that country strange, so I think I may be missing something. Without getting into why someone should or shouldn't support one or the other, can someone explain where the lie is?
Didn't Paul Atreides kill this guy in a knife fight?
"Look, I should be able to say I love Hitler if I want"
I do not understand, what is the issue? Before and after both show support for Trump? Where was the lie?
Also, what is a "sticker mule"?
The "issue" is that after receiving backlash for their public support of Trump, they publicly tried to state that it's not an issue because they also have people that support Biden... then the official company account is responding to pro-Trump posts on social media with heart eyes emojis.
It proves the original response they made trying to reduce the backlash from their political commentary, with subsequent reduction in sales and massive negative publicity, was only a platitude. They fucked around, found out, released a half-assed response to try and reduce the damage... and now apparently think it's been long enough that people forgot so they're publicly posting shit supporting Trump again. They're now being called out for the blatant lie to try to save the company.
Also, what is a “sticker mule”?
A company that sells things like custom stickers. One of many similar companies. They don't produce a unique product, it just happened to be a company that was a decent price, fast, and reliable. No issue until they themselves decided the right thing to do was to have the company wade into politics supporting a massively controversial person... for whatever stupid reason.
For further context, I recommend reading some articles about the original email. A few quick ones pulled from Google randomly since I know most people won't bother to search on their own, but may click a link provided.

Mate, thank you for your time. The real MVP.
WTF is Sticker Mule?
A person that shoves stickers up their ass.
Seemingly an online printing service for stickers and more. So there are tons of alternatives.
Unfortunately they're by far the cheapest in the US at least. Alternatives I've found are like 3x the price for vinyl.
Is sticker robot not as cheap?
Post your Sticker Mule alternatives pls!
What is sticker mule?
Sticker Mule is - was - one of the better sticker printers, be it for laptops, packages etc. That includes hologram and glitter stickers, and I will say that the quality was always excellent. They also have great deals.
And as you will know by now, one of their founders/bosses decided to go full Drumpf.
In public.
Per the company account.
On X.
I am sad to say, I have to find another place to get stickers and stuff, Redbubble is nice but no glitter :(
Red Bubble is our favorite.
Watch them have no issues printing racist stickers.
They have not, they just print what you provide. Long ago they had a store, where customers could sell their designs, and these designs were never explicitly wrong but some were… challenging. But as said, nowadays you can only have your design printed, and it’s up to you what it is and what you will do with it.
