you *must* read the Battle of the Dildo at the Minneapolis Graduate Hotel (where ICE is lodging):

"The revolution did not arrive with speeches, pamphlets, or a carefully moderated Zoom call about optics. It arrived in a cardboard box full of clearance-bin dildos, under purple neon light." 🤣

one of the most beautiful things I've ever read

THE DILDO DISTRIBUTION DELEGATION

The revolution did not arrive with speeches, pamphlets, or a carefully moderated Zoom call about optics.

This is brilliant. And hilarious. And probably a good model for protests against ICE everywhere. The revolution will be rubberized.

It reminds this moose of a "flying dildo" that someone released into an important (political?) meeting. It was radio controlled and stayed just out or reach of anybody trying to swat it. Chaos ensued. 3:O))>

The video is probably still around somewhere. (I can't find it with a quick search.) 3:O(>

Also, remember a few years back when the Bundy gang took over the national wildlife refuge in Oregon? They put out videos asking supporters to send them snacks and people sent them bags of dildos instead. Then they were stupid enough to take the bait and film themselves opening up boxes of dildos complaining about it. Which, of course, led to more people sending more dildos.

I think "dildos as a political weapon" has not been explored sufficiently.

@Mikal
It's being explored...I saw pictures earlier in Minnesota...
@Mikal @susankayequinn @Cadbury_Moose I dimly recall a video of someone throwing a large wobbly dildo at a politician. Sadly I can't remember any other details, not even the nationality of the politician, but sometimes they're actual weapons too.

Ice dildo carving festival?
Snow dildo making festival?
