Have you ever seen one of these progressive “in this house” yard signs, in the wild? Poll below,

Have you seen one of these yard signs around your neighborhood or elsewhere in real life?

This is 100% new to me, but then I don’t visit liberal neighborhoods much.

Basically, people are moving inane bumper stickers to their front lawns. There is something disturbing about this. It screams dangerous, irrational mob. It also screams political ideology made into a religion. It screams intolerance and so, hypocrisy—embraced as an identity.

It's like a screaming protest. Why? Well, what other than deep passionate, intolerant contempt for your political opponents could motivate such signs? You might scream at some people, too, if you had such contempt. The sign demonstrates your intolerance.

That such signs would do absolutely nothing to improve your neighbor's benighted attitudes—that it shows your irrationality.

It's crass virtue signaling, nothing more, and that is always irrational.
