Reply to comment by NewAlexandria in For all that is right in the world, time to take down the signs! by PACubsFan23

I would disagree. I don’t think anyone is persuaded by yard signs. I think it’s people low-key saying “look at me”! It is a battleground state, but leaving yard signs in isn’t a way to “keep momentum” when most of the signs I see are from the losing side. Just MO

more people are saying 'fuck off i'm not changing my stance'

"losing" is presumptive and limited way to frame it. Fetterman went pro-fracing. And other conservative-shifts of the liberal overton window in PA

More people definitely are saying “fuck off” now than ever before, that’s for sure. Dems have seemed to be more willing to venture towards the center-right on issues than the other way around, which coupled with candidate choice, pulled moderate Repubs to vote D…so although I see your point, I’ll go back to my original post & reiterate that I don’t see the need to keep yard signs up all year around & beyond…just to “own” others (if that is their intention).
