I just picture someone with a legitimate ear injury having to go to Walmart and getting praised and followed around like Brian from "Life of Brian".

"No I'm not a Trump supporter, I just nicked my ear doing yard work! Stop following me! Go away! Leave me ALONE!"

[-] Plopp@lemmy.world 29 points 3 months ago

I was just about to reference the waving of a sandal from Life of Brian lol. These people in the picture are a few gourds short.

[-] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 16 points 3 months ago

It also came to my mind.

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 16 points 3 months ago

Pop a vote blue sticker on it, confuse the lot of them.

The same people couldn't wear a face mask to save the lives of their relatives.

[-] hungryphrog 19 points 3 months ago

Don't forget that some also wore yellow stars because apparently hygiene=genocide.

[-] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago

Well, it does, kinda, but not in the way they think it does.

The level of projection when calling others sheep.

One of those things that always boggles my mind.

Edit not you that I'm replying to, but the people IRL that called people sheep.

I didn't think the MAGAs could find a stupider fashion accessory than those dumb, red hats but somehow, they found a way.

[-] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 21 points 3 months ago

Life, uh, finds a way.

please tell me they actually wore diapers

[-] Sunroc@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

It is my ~~regret~~ pleasure to inform you yes, Yes and Yes.

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

this is hilarious in a cringy and slightly gross way

i love it

[-] irreticent@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

They did:

Donald Trump supporters wore diapers at rallies in spring 2024, holding signs that said "Real men wear diapers."

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 64 points 3 months ago

I haven't been keeping up with the news much, I know about Trump's ear but... Is the top image for real, are people actually doing this in the US?

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 49 points 3 months ago

You have to understand that these people are clinging to anything they can use to identify others who are in their in-group. MAGA hats, diapers, and now ear coverings.

Cults do the same thing and for the same reason.

[-] Samsy@lemmy.ml 18 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

There was a movie in 2008, "the Wave" (German: die Welle) about a teacher who wants to show his class how easily it is to start fascism by just let everyone wear white shirts for school.

It's the symbolic items from the same tier or color to identify a group, which makes it dangerous.

[-] orca@orcas.enjoying.yachts 18 points 3 months ago

It’s the same virtue signaling they make fun of others for doing.

[-] SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

It's the stigmata of the anti-Christ

[-] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 30 points 3 months ago

Trump wears a bandage, they follow.

Trump wears a diaper, crickets.

[-] b161 22 points 3 months ago

We are living in the dumbest timeline.

[-] prma@programming.dev 20 points 3 months ago

That poor sheep did not have any choice. I cannot say the same about other characters in this picture.

[-] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 19 points 3 months ago

How to identify yourself as an idiot, step 1

[-] NutWrench@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago

There are many creatures in nature that warn others that they are toxic or dangerous by having bright colors, warning sounds or by wearing little red hats.

[-] p5yk0t1km1r4ge@lemmy.world 18 points 3 months ago

Jesus this is so creepy and weird

[-] helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world 18 points 3 months ago

Those real bandages? If so, what a waste of resources.

If a TV drama did this with a Presidential candidate who had a cult-like grip on his followers to the point that they wore the same bandage as him, critics would say it was too on-the-nose.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago

They want to be him. Like they are dreaming they are Trump?

Or I can't really imagine why they'd do it.

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 31 points 3 months ago

Imagine aspiring to be a fat, old, rapist, orange loser 😂

[-] abfarid@startrek.website 11 points 3 months ago

But he's a rich(?) fat old rapist and orange loser.

[-] Renacles@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Is he even rich? He has more debt than money at this point.

[-] abfarid@startrek.website 6 points 3 months ago

I share your doubts regarding his financial wellbeing, which is why I included the question mark in braces. But the main point is that he's perceived as rich by those people.

[-] TheDarksteel94@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 months ago

He's still better off than a lot of his voters

The interesting thing about this to me is that they're doing it in solidarity with Trump and to draw attention to the assassination attempt, but 1) he wasn't really injured significantly, 2) the assassination attempt seems to not have had a political motive. So, there's not much to show solidarity for, and there's no enemy they're calling out.

[-] justme@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 months ago

I read on the poster "make America wrong again"... Sounds appropriate

[-] AgentGrimstone@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Ha. Who's the sheep now.

[-] robocall@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I believe he has downgraded to a standard bandaid or two. What will MAGAs next move be?
