I have this weird plan to dissuade fascists from voting. It’s totally legal and I kinda think it could work.

  1. we buy rolls of “I Voted” stickers off Amazon

  2. On Election Day, we go to polling places in swing states. Pick a district that’s heavily fash, and with long lines.

  3. As people line up outside, go down the line and hand out the stickers. People in line get frustrated by the wait, but they figure “I already have the sticker. I can post on social. Good enough.” They go home without voting.

  4. The fascists lose.

I don’t think this is totally nuts. And as long as it’s just a generic “I Voted” sticker it’s totally legal. What do y’all think?
