That Coexist
Bumper sticker...
I hate bumper stickers especially the political ones. By reading
your shitty beliefs on your car , am I supposed to instantly change
my world view? Because of this tiny stick I am now changed forever.
Thank you, bumper sticker guy or girl. I've never understood the
concept of political bumper stickers. Yes, I know I have the right
not to look at it, but when you're sitting at a light, your shitty
views just pop right out at me.
There really is no other way people express themselves in such a
blatant political manner other than bumper stickers. We don't put
Ass Stickers up asking to end abortion or gun control. While I pass
you, take a look at this.
Other than the anti-abortion stickers (If you're reading this, your
mother was pro-life), the ones that really bother me are the Coexist
bumper stickers. It is so naive and simple minded. All these
religious groups hate each other and have been killing for years.
And, now your trendy bumper sticker will end this?
Because I am reading the back of your Nova or Prius, I all my
religious bigotry will be lifted and I will accept all religions in
my heart equally...including Scientology. Is this how it's supposed
to work?
Perhaps, when I was young, I probably wanted to see religious groups
work together and “coexist”, but my jaded older self just says,
“F' it.” And, I know these hipster/hippie types believe the
coexist concept, but a mere bumper sticker won't change a damn thing,
other than annoying me. Plus, I am already pissed off at you because
you're driving too slow and your mini-car is too loud.
I'm more into actions speak louder than damn signs, t-shirts and
hash-tags. You see someone of another religion, you treat them with
respect as long as they treat you with respect.
However, I did
see a coexist parody with a bunch symbols of various tech logos that
spelled out coexist. That is truly brilliant and clever. We need
more of these funnier ones than the serious ones.
As far as I
know, world peace hasn't been commissioned due to a damn bumper
sticker.
Now I approve of the superhero one.
This is the one I saw out in the street and I loved it.
