The Sticker Poll?


Interesting 'discovery'?

I saw the above sticker on Instapundit, and thought it chuckle worthy. I clicked the link (Hey, Instapundit, it's all good) and went to Amazon to see what's what.  No, I don't like stickers of any kind, I think they are trashy.  I can still chuckle, right?

100 stickers straight from China for $10.  What a deal, ya know?  Then I looked at more, and THEN I looked in a different way.

I Ama-searched 'Biden Sticker' to see what was up.  Well damn..... about 90% seriously anti-biden, and a lot to choose from.  What do the Chinese venders know? I suspect they know their audience.

Herself pointed out the Amazon twists results based on search history, which I had totally forgotten.  Great point!  I cleaned my search history up, and the 'Biden Sticker' results came back more like 85% anti.  Not a big change.

Curiosity had me in it's grips.  We both searched 'Biden Stickers' and 'Trump Stickers', her being a party line Democrat voter, and I a choosy bastard who actually picks people to vote for using my own brain.

Nope..... all very heavily weighted anti-Biden and pro-Trump, with about a 90/10 split.  What does this mean?

  • Chinese small business play to their profit, and make only what people want to buy?
  • Chinese small business works at influencing the US public in this way?
  • They print on demand, and are able to shift quickly based on which way the wind blows?
Have we discovered a new political indicator?  If so, it will only last as long as no one looks at it.

Hey stinker, I don't vote straight party line. I have mixed it up every election for the last 3 I have voted in. I am only old enough to have voted in 4 or 5 presidential elections. Quit teasing me!!
