What to do about neighbours with F*CK Trudeau flag (lemmy.ca)

We have a new rental house across the road. The neighbours have decided to put up a no trespassing sign and an F*CK Trudeau flag. Our neighbourhood has always been a mix of different political backgrounds but everyone is lovely and respectful. Seems as though someone close by called the police about the flag. It wasn’t us although we have the same feelings about it. The flag is offensive but we decided to educate our child about why the display of signs like this are hateful rather than uplifting and supportive. Since the police showed up we heard them loudly exclaim “someone has too much time in their hands”. I’m guessing it was directed at us as we have a pride flag in our front window. Shortly after that the Trudeau flag showed up. How can one approach this? We’re all for free speech. But why act like a trash human to get your opinion across?

Rant over.

Ok, here's what you do.

Buy a white Dodge Ram, the white sunglasses are free with the truck
Get some cardboard from the pile of stuff you burn when there's a fireban on
Use a sharpie to write "I am Justin ok w tRudoe Vax is gud" on it
Duct tape this to your truck and park it where they can see it

Every fiber of their being will want to agree with you but the message will be abhorrent. They will send destruct like a computer that dared to take on Captain Kirk.

Express your appreciation of the flag, agree that yes indeed Trudeau is very fuckable and you can see why they want to express that desire in flag based form

It's tacky, it's a depressing reflection of the state of the world, but why is it something that you personally have to do something about? Are you maybe looking for meditation tips?
