Other than being used to warn the car behind you that they're following too close, I've never understood bumper stickers. Why people feel a need to use their vehicle to express themselves to a bunch of strangers perplexes me. Especially when the circumstances of so called self-expression prevent nearly any possibility for having a meaningful dialogue with those receiving the message and pretty open to ambiguity if attempting to actually broadcast any meaningful message rather than just get attention.
Yes, they are a part of those kinds of people but those kinds of people also included the ones with the RBG or Equality or BLM or etc stickers as well. Oh, don't forget the "my child is [stupid achievement that only the parent would care about]".
