Nah, they're saying sales have only dropped by 10% from 2024, in the US. Which is fucked up.
Wonder if that's because left aligned types had already quit buying them in '24? He was already being a total fuckhead during the election at that point.
Hell of a way to squeeze a statistic.
Yeah reading it again, they are saying year over year, last month (June) sales were down 10%.
They phrased it very oddly. Like the kind of way you phrase things when you are trying to spin an agenda.
None of that helps. The facts speak for themselves. We don’t need to embellish to make the point. That only invites challenge to our credibility.
I completely agree. Making statistics lie is a dark art.
The fascist fuckheads and their followers are doing so much blatantly evil shit that there is no need to embellish anything. The plain facts are plenty apalling all by themselves.
