Is this a common Freeper office tactic?
So an anonymous right winger in my office has for the past couple weeks been distributing right-wing propaganda articles from the likes of Fox News and NewsMax in the strangest of places - the stalls of the men's bathroom.

I guess his genius idea is to think that when guys go in there to take a number two, they'll be looking for some reading material and in turn will reach for and be indoctrinated by his ridiculous articles. There is a certain method to his madness, but it just seems so logical that a Freeper would use a toilet as his canvassing headquarters.

5. Actually, that IS a good idea.
And one I can run with.

Seriously.

Who wants to put together a news broadsheet that we can recruit volunteers to stick up in restroom stalls worldwide? Of course we will strongly suggest that people use tape that will not damage anything; Free speech, not vandalism.

My thought is that it would be typeset to resemble a 1770s broadsheet, and distributed as a PDF file. It ought to be at least weekly.

Comments????

6. I must admit, I did think it was clever
Edited on Sun Dec-19-04 05:31 PM by ALago1
But I just had to laugh at the fact that a Freeper equated taking a dump with an opportunity for political enlightenment.

On edit: I would be insterested in joining your movement. I can't have this guy be the dominating voice in my company's latrines!! :)

4. Sneak up behind him,
and while he's distributing his propaganda, punch him in the kidney, and run off. }(

14. Bring a pen when you go poop...
and write annotations in the margins explaining the folly of conservative thought.

15. That's nothing! Someone at my school has been distributing chick tracts
Horrible right-wing rabid Christian psycho comics. Look 'em up on the internets. If you've never seen one, you'll be amazed.
