We’ve become a society with no limits. And while I don’t pretend to be a prude, I still believe there’s such a thing as common decency… in action and speech.
I’m a democrat who dislikes Donald Trump, but I wouldn’t install a “F*ck Trump” sign on my lawn like the family down the road who have a giant “F*ck Biden” poster prominently displayed on their garage.
Decency. It’s definitely in short supply.
You’d think I’d be used to it by now. Heck, after a years worth of that Cosmopolitan smut nothing should surprise me… but the ads I saw for apparel the other day did.

As someone who always needs a cocktail, I find myself more than a little offended.
Sarcastic, slightly off color, double entendre humor? Big fan.
Rude and crude, put it all out there without nuance, shock value humor? Not so much.

The last one at least has a bit of wit. The first two are not only witless, but totally vulgar. So what else is new these days?

Vulgarity is what all of this is, I don’t mind a witty sense of humor, hell even a dirty joke or two, but this is what the current generation is made of. Vulgar, think your right, unfiltered smut that they think is funny. No decorum, no sophistication, no morals……NOTHING.

Every time I see that sign up the road I picture a grandparent driving by with their grandchildren in the car.

Tell me about it, it’s hard enough trying to keep one’s cool in this political climate. But having to explain to young children what all this is about, ugh.

I think about this too. We have a few around who fly flags saying f**k Biden. And yes, school buses drive by these houses.

Where do you find these gems? I don’t think I even know anyone who would buy one, let alone wear one.

I totally agree with you; although, we are on opposite sides politically. Remember the saying, “Not My President?”. While I don’t like Biden, as an American Citizen, I would never say he is “Not My President.” because he is.

Agreed. I miss the days when we could agree to disagree with respect for other opinions. The divisiveness is splitting this country apart.

In my old neighborhood in Rapid City, there was a house flying a F*ck Biden flag. God, that pissed me off, because there are little kids in the neighborhood who do not need to be exposed to that shit. I’d say the same thing about a F*ck Trump flag (though I’d certainly agree with THAT sentiment). Crap like that only intensifies the political divide. I’m all about coming together.
So to speak.

I’m the same as you, I have colorful language, and I might say a few of these things to a dear friend (you know the kind), but I’d never advertise it outside of my home.
Rude and gross.
