I got one of those Facebook ads in my news feed for a really nice wallet

I need a new wallet so I clicked the ad. I noticed some shtick on the site about Southern class or something like that. I perused a little further and there's a whole story about how depressed and desperate the family was before they started their leather business, and all but bragging about their values.

Unfortunately they are in Alabama.

I wrote them a message about how beautiful their product is, but that I would not be buying from any state who would knowingly elect a pedophile to the Senate. I also said that given current situation their gushing over their own "values" creeped me out, so they ought to know that their state politics cost them one sale.

I haven't heard back.
