I have put my first bumper sticker on my new car. It simply says "I resist". I have one or two more I can give away; if you'd like one, ping me here or personally

Not relevant at all to your post, but I have three bumper stickers on my car. The one that says "Never Trump" went on in early 2016 and will stay until the day he leaves office. The one that says "Cruz 2020" went on the day after Trump won the nomination, and will stay there until Cruz pisses me off sufficiently, which I fear is likely to happen sooner or later. And the one that says "196884=196883+1" causes some bafflement, but when anyone recognizes its significance, I know I've found a true compadre.
I remember at one point you wrote a blog post about those numbers and their significance but it was sufficiently long ago I'd forgotten the gist. I did not recall you'd gotten it on a bumper sticker.
I usually have a motorcycle awareness sticker; we no longer have many friends who ride regularly but still it's something I feel helps my friends so I do it.
Beyond that... I dunno. I lean toward something to remind people of the verses that appear on the Statue of Liberty but that's hard to convey at bumper-sticker resolution.
The latter might be a sticker you and I would both be proud to display.
On a separate note, I see that my comments here (on LJ) are not showing up on Dreamwidth. I'm going to repost my comment on Dreamwidth and see if it shows up here a second time. If it's duplicated, I'll delete the duplicate.

Real people are complex. I suspect we disagree on 9 out of 10 issues but that doesn't mean we can't be amicable. I was theorizing recently that America's winner-take-all political system promotes polarization and furthers the inability to have dialog. A proportional or ranked voting system might produce different behaviors.
Besides if RBG and Scalia could find things to agree on, surely it's a smaller feat for you and I to find common ground ;)

There is no mechanism I'm aware of to push comments from DW to LJ. When I import material to DW I can ask it to pick up the comments and thus they can be duplicated LJ->DW but that's a one-time process, afaik.
