The brouhaha over the Cracker Barrel logo change was raised by MAGA America’s illiterate masses. For them, it was literally a rebus. All puns, and heartless snark, intended.

We’ve got a madman, whom they put in office, destroying our democracy and installing himself as a dictator. And they’re complaining about a fucking logo change? That’s some shamefully clueless, capricious shit.

This is a photo of the original Cracker Barrel sign. It has an illustration of a “rural” gentleman (uncle or grandfather type) seated in a chair next to a literal cracker barrel. His legs are crossed (right over left). His left elbow and forearm are resting on the top edge of the barrel. Immediately to the right of the barrel, are the words, “Cracker Barrel,” with the word “Cracker” directly above the word “Barrel.” The letters are maroon, and placed against an oval-shaped mustard-colored background. Beneath the logo and name, are the words, “Old Country Store,” in smaller, less fancy print than the name immediately above it.

So, the #FlagBurning stuff is BULLSHIT! #MAGA-types desecrate the #AmericanFlag ALL THE TIME! For instance, you're not supposed to wear the flag on your ass or let it fly in tatters! These idiots don't even follow proper flag protocol!!! How many of them "retire" their flags properly? I learned this stuff in scouts! This is just another excuse to arrest people who #protest!!! Like COMBAT VETERANS!!!

The writing was on the wall for a long time. This Trump symbol goes back to 2017, yet people didn’t heed the warnings.

Now millions of Americans are horrified by what the Trump regime is doing to the country and say they had no idea about what the Republicans were planning if Trump returned to the WH.
