The handle should be made of bone with knobby spurs on it large enough to make it uncomfortable to use.

Wild that everyone is focusing on the absurdity of selling knives, as opposed to the url being PatriotAddictDeals.com

Wait, fuck how are they so beyond parody‽ Fucking losers

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Lol. They call a zippo a snowflake lighter compared to this electric one.

That's what I was going to point out. Beside that sounding like the most obvious scam domain ever, reading it at face value would indicate that the Republicans think their supporters are a bunch of addicts. Did they fire everyone with any marketing background or are they all so far down the rabbit hole that this sounds perfectly reasonable to them?

Is that a "combat knife"? Cause it looks like the box cutter I use at work

[–] NiHaDuncan@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I sincerely hope you are not using something like that as a box cutter, because it absolutely isn’t one.

[–] harmsy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I don't think it even qualifies as a knife. It's probably made of some sort of cheap stainless steel that goes dull if you sneeze at it.

"Patriot addict" = "Bad with money."

Trump and his family of billionaires are also launching a cryptocurrency as final bid to grift as much as possible before he, hopefully, loses and they all become irrelevant forever

That's what I was hoping in 2020. It seems the slow steady progress of time will have to take care of it.

Trump be hiring every sixth grader that pirated Photoshop cs3. Everything he releases just has this design aesthetic that no one tried because it's awful.

[–] RidderSport@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

Right? I was about to lose my mind because no one commentend that. This looks worse than the overlay of tele-shopping channels

That same Patriot Addict company also has a Trump bobblehead which is 100x more horrifying than I expected. Tremendously horrifying. The most horrifying thing in the history of our country.

While this is odd given the current political landscape in America, pretty sure I remember Bush having knives and stuff too. Would see them at the local carry out when I was young.

Inb4 Patriot Glocks or AR14s….I wouldn’t be surprised if someone else already has tapped that market though.

Sad to see a company that once manufactured arms to fight fascism turn to manufacturing them for the glorification of fascists.

Also a small nerdy aside, their ‘about’ page still mentions Blish’s delayed blowback breech locking system which, while technically effective when done properly, has since been proven to not have functioned as Blish thought at the time. It’s actually considered an unsafe delay system as modification, damage, or material change of the gun can cause the delay to disappear resulting in the explosion inside the barrel finding its way out of the wrong end of the barrel possibly injuring/killing the operator.

Ahh right, I assumed 100% voting rates. You've definitely changed there context here. Really great job at focusing in on it.
