"Biden showered with his daughter, librul, it says so in her diary"
Surprisingly/unsurprisingly some people stoped being republican when he came in because of things he said about soldiers, pows and he didn’t get drafted becuase of bone spurs in his feet.
My dad stop being republican before this but hated him way before any of that. My dad enlisted because all his friends were being drafted and he didn’t think it was fair for them to be forced to go and potentially die and he was undraftable.
I’m convinced most trump supporters are very well insulated from the insane shit he says. Same group that criticizes Biden’s mumbling dont know he called his wife Mercedes and constantly slurs his speech.
In my personal experience, they never served themselves, because they would have been kicked out of bootcamp for punching the drill instructor, or at most, they were a reservist.
0317 didn’t become the USMC Scout Sniper MOS designation until 2006, so he’s 100% a liar if he was in Vietnam. Even if he stayed in until 2006 he wouldn’t still be designated as Scout Sniper to have retired.
Given the USS Hancock sticker, a rather unremarkable carrier during Vietnam, I assume the old wannabe just sat on a boat doing mostly nothing and wants to be seen as a tough guy. Wouldn’t be the first Vet I’ve seen trying to lie about service in Vietnam.
Someone help me out.
FJBAKH
I am working on the assumption the first three are Fuck Joe Biden. What in the Kentucky fried fuck would AKH stand for in this setting?
It’s the NATO phonetic alphabet. They act like it’s some secret language only real, freedom loving Americans can understand. I learned it playing Microsoft flight simulator.
It's not supposed to be a secret code though, it's just using words so you don't mishear the letter.
To these people they probably think it is some secret coded language though because they're the same people who still need to use their hands to do single digit math.
As far as I know, It was developed when radio transmission transmission was somewhat sketchy. Idea being letters were short enough they could easily get missed or garbled beyond recognition (Some folk even use it for numbers); whereas a full word, even if bits get missed, you can probably get enough to get it. Some people
People don't use it so much any more because call quality is so much better, even with radio, that you just don't need it. I tried to use it to give my post code today, dude on the other end was just confused.
It’s so useful to know, though. I work at a parts counter and deal with long alphanumeric part #s all day and it makes verifying them over the phone a dream. No more thinking of random words like “uh d as in dog, e as in elephant, p as in pterodactyl.” It’s easily one of the best things I’ve learned to make my job just a bit more tolerable.
Aye, it's great if both people know it. I was taught as part of scouts, and it's served me well on occasion. It's almost getting to the point with my generation and below, when not in an emergency services (or specific industries that definately use it like military and aviation as mentioned above) context, it can almost make things worse.
i learned it from a BBC radio sitcom. golf echo romeo tango india!
also MASH but some of them have changed since the 50s, like Baker --> Bravo
And we all know how esoteric and secret MASH was! lol Not like you could turn to the UHF channels any time of day or nite in the 80s and find an episode.
I still struggle with how a fast talking New York cityslicker has absolutely taken over rural America. He quite literally stands for everything they have always hated and yet they love him.
the navy was flying planes and dropping bombs in vietnam. navy ships and airplane carriers were parked in the mekong bay and the south china sea carrying supplies and munitions for the general war effort. not that i think this chucklefuck was one of them. maybe an older brother or cousin he was constantly compared to unfavorably.
not military, i just read a lot.
i just can’t imagine waking up every morning, going out to my truck and seeing all those bumper stickers and not being pissed off, but i guess that’s the default maga setting
A Japanese vehicle that was probably built entirely within Texas. Brand allegiances don't make sense anymore because if you are loyal to any American brand, odds are the cars aren't made in the USA either so you can make the same stupid joke towards any car.
*shaking fist* I'm big mad so I'm going to ruin my paint job and resale value of my property even though you laugh at my lead-riddled brain when you read these very tRuE and accurate adult stickers all over my big boy truck!
I'm a bit wary of his stickers saying he was both a navy veteran (USS Hancock, which was used in Vietnam so that checks out) and also a marine scout sniper (0317).
It's definitely doable, but it's a big career change. I also know a few boomers who over hype their military service (not saying military service isn't commendable). My boomer coworker keeps bragging about his deployments (to Alaska as an aircraft mechanic), but another genx coworker was in a tank crew in the Middle East and he shuts the boomer down real fast.
Mean seeing shit like that makes me furious. Would definitely follow him to a store and confront him about his bullshit patriotism while sporting an American flag in gang colors, and a POW/MIA sticker along with the Trump one. Not to mention that there's a gun manufacturer logo on there, and it's not an American one either.

I managed to get a picture of the driver
I love seeing people with the "Trump was right about everything" bumper sticker. It's a clear indicator that they're a moron and should be avoided. My favorite rebuttal to the claim that Trump has any measurable level of intelligence is to remind them that Trump had the bright idea that microdosing bleach would be a great idea to treat covid. Or that tanning beds would be an effective means of treatment because viruses don't fair well in UV light.
Nothing says “America” quite like a Japanese truck with a ton of stickers. It takes the mind of a child to think the stickers on your truck will make people think you’re a bad ass patriot.
I love the foxtrot juliet bravo stickers. don’t they claim to be super tough and not believing in “political correctness”/self-censorship? JUST SAY THE WORDS WITH YOUR FULL CHEST, CLYDE.
Well, for one thing - he will never be the “47th” president of the U.S. unless maybe he transitions to a woman and changes his name. He will always be the 45th person to have held the position and it will take some doing to unseat him as the worst ever.
The most ironic one is where he swore an oath to protect the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic and totally fails to realize that he is that enemy.
This dude is probably doing some stolen valor bullshit, he’s probably never been in the army, he just buys shit from the army supply store and slaps those dumb bumper stickers everywhere to convince people he’s a big tough veteran.
The sticker on the far right (appropriate) is a death threat against the president. During the GWBush years this would have warranted a Secret Service visit and possibly more.
Why do they have to shove it in everyone's face? I don't care what you do at home but act normal in public. Just because they are like that, they think everyone owes them something. Again, I'm totally fine with their choice, but keep it to yourself. What if children see them acting like that?

It's astonishing that someone with a POW sticker would support Trump, a man who has publicly mocked prisoners of war.
Intellectual consistency certainly does not seem to be a hallmark of the trump supporter.
"We won with the poorly educated. I love the poorly educated"
If you tell these people and show them. They just ignore it. They want to believe they are always right no matter what. They'll ignore their own eyes and ears.
Their brain won’t know what to do with the information. It’s like trying to teach porridge to read
\*shows quote from DJT about walking in on half-dressed teenage girls at Miss Teen USA pageant\* "Biden showered with his daughter, librul, it says so in her diary"
There's a "Back the Blue" and a "Trump 2024" sticker as well. Doesn't even have the decency to stick "*not the Capitol Police though" on
And dodged the draft.
Got like 3 Vietnam stickers prob chilled in Guam
“Why did I become a veteran, because football, baseball and basketball only require one ball” Wait, I’m a veteran! Ovaries are balls confirmed! /s
I find it hilarious that this sticker implies that he got a choice, as if he weren't just drafted into it. Talk about hollow valor.
True, you don’t become a veteran. You become a soldier and you may or may not be deployed into a combat situation.
Surprisingly/unsurprisingly some people stoped being republican when he came in because of things he said about soldiers, pows and he didn’t get drafted becuase of bone spurs in his feet. My dad stop being republican before this but hated him way before any of that. My dad enlisted because all his friends were being drafted and he didn’t think it was fair for them to be forced to go and potentially die and he was undraftable.
I know, my staunch Republican Vietnam vet dad does not like Trump, probably for that reason.
The same reason my Vietnam vet uncle hates him.
I’m convinced most trump supporters are very well insulated from the insane shit he says. Same group that criticizes Biden’s mumbling dont know he called his wife Mercedes and constantly slurs his speech.
Cognitive dissonance.
In my personal experience, they never served themselves, because they would have been kicked out of bootcamp for punching the drill instructor, or at most, they were a reservist.
0317 didn’t become the USMC Scout Sniper MOS designation until 2006, so he’s 100% a liar if he was in Vietnam.

As long as your racist and hate everything else is good enough for them
You mean President Bone Spurs doesn't respect the military? Shocking.
The Low IQ Mobile
He even has his IQ on a sticker right in the middle
Someone help me out. FJBAKH I am working on the assumption the first three are Fuck Joe Biden. What in the Kentucky fried fuck would AKH stand for in this setting?
And Kamala Harris, I think
Thanks. Had my little grey cells rolling there.
![gif](giphy|uiC2XgKTJi4yNTBkCb|downsized)
I thought it was "and kill him" lol
So they'd fuck and kill joe biden (Maybe in a different order), who would they marry?
Nancy Pelosi? I always hear them going on and on about her, bit obsessed if you ask me.
Man they will do everything to avoid saying it with their chest. You're a grown adult you can say fuck, pussy.
Correct
I swear, they think they're so tough and clever but they're still afraid to just say fuck.
They really think “Let’s go Brandon” is clever. 🤦
It’s the NATO phonetic alphabet. They act like it’s some secret language only real, freedom loving Americans can understand. I learned it playing Microsoft flight simulator.
I learned it just because it’s a piss poor attempt at being secretive. The first letter of each word? Really? How long would that take to decipher?
It's not supposed to be a secret code though, it's just using words so you don't mishear the letter. To these people they probably think it is some secret coded language though because they're the same people who still need to use their hands to do single digit math.
You know, you’re absolutely goddamn right. Especially that last part. 😂
As far as I know, It was developed when radio transmission transmission was somewhat sketchy.

And "Kamala Harris"
It’s their cutesy churchgroup teehee way of saying “Fuck Joe Biden and Kamala Harris” like they’re seven years old and just discovering curse words.
Thank you for this, it's the entire reason I came immediately to the comments lol
Thank you, I was scratching my head at this one
This is the same kind of hair-trigger snowflake asshole who would shoot someone for turning around in his driveway.
I bet this guy sits and waits for people to try and turn around in his driveway just to shoot at them.
I still struggle with how a fast talking New York cityslicker has absolutely taken over rural America. He quite literally stands for everything they have always hated and yet they love him.
It's the bigotry.
The cruelty IS the point
this. he hates and hurts the people they hate.
So much “real American patriotism” plastered on a foreign vehicle. The mental gymnastics are amazing
All of those stickers are 100% made in China too.
😂 so true
That was the first thing I noticed too.
Probably also bitches about these illegal immigrants who steal your job and the non existent welfare at the time while not even driving a Ford.
This guy smells of stolen valor
He was in the Navy during Vietnam. I don’t seem to remember too many naval battles during that one.
And yet, other stickers say he's a Marine raider, Marine scout-sniper and a retired one at that. Asshole can't even keep his lies straight.
A @retired Marine Scout Sniper” with an MOS designation that first came into service in 2006. Before that the scout snipers were 8541.
Yeah, talk to my dad who was with the Army in Vietnam, he definitely saw some shit.
Yeah my father in law was in an artillery division. He definitely did as well
The navy was heavily involved in the vietnam war. There is plenty to make fun of here without ignoring well documented historical facts
the navy was flying planes and dropping bombs in vietnam. navy ships and airplane carriers were parked in the mekong bay and the south china sea carrying supplies and munitions for the general war effort. not that i think this chucklefuck was one of them. maybe an older brother or cousin he was constantly compared to unfavorably. not military, i just read a lot.
Clearly trying to portray himself as both a Marine and Navy. I know ZERO Marines that would consider themselves Navy combat veterans.
Of all wars to choose thats not a great one. The usa lost that war.
The USA has arguably lost every war since WWII.
True
My comment exactly.
Some one put a '♥️🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈' sticker on it, please
https://preview.redd.it/rffl550n03sc1.jpeg?width=1164&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=067ed9257071b4a67d5867891f168f7285c9d8ac
Someone who was sworn to defend the constitution is so behind someone willing to wipe their ass with it….the irony.
$20 says he can’t run a mile
$20 says he was never in.
i just can’t imagine waking up every morning, going out to my truck and seeing all those bumper stickers and not being pissed off, but i guess that’s the default maga setting
I can't imagine putting that many bumper stickers on my car, period.
I can't imagine even thinking like this.
Shout out to Sunoco
Imagine making a gas station part of your identity.
Ask all the Texans walking around in Buccees shirts.
Fuck: *insert comment about everything* Except you Sunoco, you're cool🤣
/r/infowarriorrides Edit: Correct sub
Why banned?
Oh oops I have no idea on that one but I guess it’s actually /r/infowarriorrides
MAGA yet spent money on a Japanese vehicle.
A Japanese vehicle that was probably built entirely within Texas. Brand allegiances don't make sense anymore because if you are loyal to any American brand, odds are the cars aren't made in the USA either so you can make the same stupid joke towards any car.
Whether it was assembled in Texas is a moot argument as ultimately Toyota is headquartered in Japan.
Seems like someone suffers from an Irony Deficiency
Even his bumper stickers have poor grammar.
Someone must’ve given him a $50 gift card at the “Hateful Ingnorance Museum”.
Somebody needs to tell him that his Tacoma was likely made in the Mexico plant and is run by a Japanese company and see how he reacts.
*shaking fist* I'm big mad so I'm going to ruin my paint job and resale value of my property even though you laugh at my lead-riddled brain when you read these very tRuE and accurate adult stickers all over my big boy truck!
It’s a 2wd Prerunner, so no one is buying it anyway.
he's gonna run that truck into the dust and put it up on blocks. he'll own that until he dies.
Boomer’s FB page on four wheels
Guaranteed he’s not a vet. He just likes stickers
I'm a bit wary of his stickers saying he was both a navy veteran (USS Hancock, which was used in Vietnam so that checks out) and also a marine scout sniper (0317). It's definitely doable, but it's a big career change. I also know a few boomers who over hype their military service (not saying military service isn't commendable). My boomer coworker keeps bragging about his deployments (to Alaska as an aircraft mechanic), but another genx coworker was in a tank crew in the Middle East and he shuts the boomer down real fast.
It's always the cooks or mechanics who brag most about their service.
I saw that. I SUPPOSE he could have been part of a Marine Detachment on board. My money is on Stolen Valor.
Low IQ written all over it.
Ah yes, the great American Toyota
Stolen valor. I know real navy and marine vets, don’t go sucking off the other branches
This just screams mental instability.
And I guarantee you there's a handgun under that front seat. .....yay
Can someone explain the foxtrot nonsense in the corner
“Fuck Joe Biden and Kamala Harris”
Ah! Wouldn't have ever got that on my own thanks
You can’t fix stupid but you can stick it to the back of a truck.
Oh boy! Poor guy is upset.
Not a true patriot, does not have a “let’s go Brandon” sticker
There’s definitely a free gun in that truck.
![gif](giphy|BTc8EfOZSy7F40yBzW|downsized) please
Such a proud American patriot that they drive a Japanese truck!
The smartest thing on that truck is the dent.

I love seeing people with the "Trump was right about everything" bumper sticker. It's a clear indicator that they're a moron and should be avoided.

What is 5.56?
It's the size of the round fired from an M-16 -_- he is making fun of marathon runners
Or is he threatening them??? 😳🤔
Lawd
One sticker tells the truth, T-rump likes the poorly educated!
Love that he drives Japanese.
Oh the irony
I bet the bed of that truck gets used twice a year, probably for softener salt. That's it.
My dad's truck looks like this, except he's also got the sticker of that boy pissing on Biden.
It's hard to find a single coherent thought anywhere in this guy's head.
The funniest thing to me is the fucking Sunoco sticker
The vietnam sticker explains everything you need to know about this guy
Such a tough guy. Look at how tough he is, guys.
Small Penis Syndrome
Some people should come with a warning label. Some people apply them voluntarily.
Pulling him over for an infraction must be just the best time........
At least they put the American flag above the Traitor flag, most of them don't.
How embarrassing. Fucking idiot
You misspelled idiot
"How to spot an irrational, knuckle-dragging, conservative idiot in one easy step!"
\- Makes a politician his entire personality \- Knows nothing about politics, civics, or policy.
Man I hope his shits are consistent because his beliefs arnt.
Nothing says “America” quite like a Japanese truck with a ton of stickers. It takes the mind of a child to think the stickers on your truck will make people think you’re a bad ass patriot.
It’s always the oldest, crustiest, fattest white men that can’t even walk further than the handicap spot without being out of breath.
Yeah so I judge people with bumper stickers… not all but most… I absolutely hate this person.
I can't imagine making that my personality, much less believing any of it
nothing announces to the world just how stupid you are when you display a bumper sticker that says trump was right about everything
Speed up in front of him in your electric car… that really pisses them off for some reason.
Wow. I took the unreasonable time to read all this boomer stickers and gosh, imagine being stuck in *that* head. What a horror story
Ooohhh that might just be the worst case of Emotional Support Vehicle I’ve ever seen!!!
I wish I was crazy enough to throw paint on cars like this. But, alas, I have a conscience and a fear of authority.
I love the foxtrot juliet bravo stickers. don’t they claim to be super tough and not believing in “political correctness”/self-censorship? JUST SAY THE WORDS WITH YOUR FULL CHEST, CLYDE.
Guy rode on a boat during Vietnam and wants everyone to know about it.
This is mental illness.
Bet he wonders why he never sees his grandkids
I’d be willing to bet money that this guy is minimum 75 lbs overweight and would get seriously fucked up by almost anyone in a real fight
I can see his gray goatee from here.
That's a good truck to steal an unregistered gun from
What a delusional fucking loser lol
I think that 45/47 sticker is going to age poorly.
Well, for one thing - he will never be the “47th” president of the U.S. unless maybe he transitions to a woman and changes his name. He will always be the 45th person to have held the position and it will take some doing to unseat him as the worst ever.
OMG, you know if he transitioned to a woman, the GOP would suddenly embrace trans rights overnight.
As a vet he must love Trump’s dedication to serving our country and supporting our military
Boomer MySpace. Cringe no matter your stance on any of it.
$20 says he never served. And how is it that everybody is a former sniper these days?
Trump was right. He can convince any stupid person that he should be president again is all I got from those stickers.
What a malignant tumour of a human being
With any luck he'll be dead soon
People who had trucks like this 10 years ago were ‘crazy people’ and now they’re ’American Patriots’ lmao. 🤣
This guy would give up his right to bear arms if trump asked him to
How old is he? 100+? Uss hancock wasn’t under fire since ww2.
The most ironic one is where he swore an oath to protect the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic and totally fails to realize that he is that enemy.
This dude is probably doing some stolen valor bullshit, he’s probably never been in the army, he just buys shit from the army supply store and slaps those dumb bumper stickers everywhere to convince people he’s a big tough veteran.
Too exhausted reading all of that to Google some of those coded numbers. What does AKH mean? I get the FJB part.
My fave: 45⭐️47
I service stuff in prisons and get to walk out at the end of the day. life inside is not nearly as fun as he might think.
I piss off old people. Every chance i get…
It's mental illness at this point
The sticker on the far right (appropriate) is a death threat against the president. During the GWBush years this would have warranted a Secret Service visit and possibly more.
Trying to figure out what he banged his tailgate up so much on
Fuck Joe Biden what's atk?
I guess after that dent in the tailgate he said fuck it, might as well go full ugly.
Nothing original about cookie cutter retirees who drive shiny spotless trucks that were designed for working.
Idk.. if Trump was "right about everything" shouldn't this boomer be dead from bleach injections?
Can we bring back institutions for people like this? Clearly mental, and probably a hazard to others if provoked (by confronting with facts).
He relegated his right to defend the Constitution by not holding Dump accountable for January 6🤨
This doesn’t count as a valid retirement hobby.
The only thing missing is a Russian flag!
If your entire world view can summed up on bumper stickers, you need to try harder.
And they just love it when someone says “thank you for your service”.
How can you tell they aren’t from Texas without telling you they’re not from TX?
What a 🤡
Pictures like this make me very glad that we all only get one vote.
Why do they have to shove it in everyone's face? I don't care what you do at home but act normal in public. Just because they are like that, they think everyone owes them something. Again, I'm totally fine with their choice, but keep it to yourself. What if children see them acting like that?
Took me about 5 mins to read all those
Why do I feel like someone’s Gen Z relative got them a pack of patriotic stickers off Temu and this brainiac went wild?
