A social media user from Minnesota recently spotted something that they found so shocking they couldn’t help but take a photo of it, and of course, post it on the internet for everyone else to see. In today’s political climate, it’s not surprising to see people sharing their affiliations and opinions with flags, signs, bumper stickers, their wardrobe, and more. However, this person may have taken it a bit too far.
In a Reddit group titled InfowarriorRides, a photo of the truck was shared for all to see. The vehicle was seen in Garrison, Minnesota. On the back window, several stickers were seen sharing exactly what the driver believes to be true when it comes to politics and other hot-button topics.
Perhaps the most eye-popping sticker simply reads, “White Pride.” That alone is enough to catch someone’s attention. However, the rest of the stickers are also raising eyebrows. A large sticker in the middle contains a one-word expletive to describe a female. Another says “doesn’t play well with others,” which likely sums up the person who drives this truck.

Other political messages and even Confederate flag stickers are also easy to spot on the window. Another sticker that reads “Crazy White Girl” also appears to fit the bill. Of course, Reddit had plenty to say about the truck and the person who drives it.
“It’s so absolutely absurd,” one person said of the truck’s messages. “Stickers to identify idiots on the road,” another joked.
“One has every right to stride on to the public square and yell, ‘White Pride!’ I would not advise it, because lots of people take very seriously what happens on that public square. There will be consequences,” one person wrote. “They think they are saying [expletive] you to some abstract public feature or public event, with the boney fingers, but a car is a social instrument. The other cars around one is filled with other people, the other members of society around you,” they continued.
“There is a big diff between social life and public life. America has a problem making this distinction, in lots of ways. Public life is your professional or official life. It includes your right to vote, for example, and also your right to protest, but don’t just flash a finger at the world,” the user concluded.
There seems to be no end in sight when it comes to the tension and division in the country, particularly on subjects such as politics, race, and other important issues. Of course, the internet is always there to remind us.
