The “READ” bumper sticker. . .

Can I get a list of things that aren't virtue signaling? Y'all claim damn near every opinion or display is virtue signaling. Calling something "virtue signaling" is the worst king of virtue signaling.

Show us on the doll where the bumper sticker offended you...

I said in OP that "READ" was the second most cringe because "COEXIST" is at #1 by a mile.

The "READ" sticker like most bumper stickers is just people with shitty instincts thinking that they're impressing strangers. It's elevated to #2 though because of it being a command. Wagging a finger and barking orders at complete strangers demanding that they do an activity so that they can be as virtuous as the sticker owner is hilarious. And that is a fact.

"Coexist!", on the other hand, checks all the same boxes as "READ!", but what takes it into the stratosphere at #1 by light years is how shockingly ignorant the command is.

We should do an experiment:

-everyone walk up to a group of strangers, put hands on hip while poking out lower lip, then yell “Read!”

-report back and tell us how it went

I've still never seen one of these bumper stickers. On the other hand, my state isn't known for being able to read.

Do you realize that all bumper stickers are some kind of pathetic “signaling”

I said exactly that in a separate post in this very thread.

Here’s a word of advice for you. READ!

You are a liar. Your nonsensical convoluted doublespeak fools no one

No. I typed that that the sky is blue in a post in this very thread, and then she jumped in and wagged her finger at me lecturing “Oh yeah, well did you ever consider that the sky is blue.?”

Beyond that, this is the Book Board, An entirely appropriate place to mock the hilarity of the “READ!” sticker.

And the schools are doing it too.Currently, I’m seeing a lot “my child read a million words” . I’m seeing such signs as that on front lawns in neighborhoods. And one school’s marquee was congratulating all of their “million word readers”. I don’t think it’s a good theme, to focus on the number of words a child has read. I can imagine kids speed reading through a book, just to increase their word count or whatever and maybe surpass another classmate, and possibly they don’t absorb the proper level of enjoyment or enrichment from the story they’re reading. It becomes all about reaching a number. ( and I haven’t seen the “Read” sticker here in Lafayette, but my liberal sister has the cringy “Coexist “ sticker on her car, plus a BLM yard sign that says “Hate has no home here”. Yeah, right. LOL. She hates Trump, hates conservatives, hates white guys.
