So I found this rather amusing. This is a Hudson News store, which if you’ve never been to an airport in your life, is kind of like a corner store…except in an airport. Inflated prices and all.

Anyways, they have this display, and I found it funny. I work at the airport, and yesterday these two shirts were facing each other. The red one is a trump 2024 shirt, and you can clearly see the other is a Harris 2024 shirt. They’re meant to be facing each other as if they’re debating. But somebody turned the red shirt to face a pillar. So It doesn’t matter if you’re outside the store (the perspective this display is meant to be seen from) or inside the store, no matter which direction you see it from, it’s just a blank red shirt.

Now maybe I’m reading too much into this, but I like to think it means somebody saw the image of a trump shirt, and got so offended they turned a lifeless mannequin to reject the message of the shirt. Thus making a political statement about the placement of a mannequin due to it’s shirts content.

And when you think about it, that’s the MOST hard a shirt can go in 2024. It’s not quite censorship, but it IS sending a message…or hell, maybe I’m wrong and somebody bumped the damn thing.

For the record though, I’m pro-Harris. I mean, not enough to buy a $60 T-Shirt that doesn’t fit me at an airport, but still.

    I agree to your explanations. But not to this judgement. The world has so many harder topics than Usa’s half functioning president elections or their upcoming civil war afterwards.
