5 Reasons I Argue With Haters on Instagram (And Why I Keep Doing It)

Every time I post new bumper stickers, the chaos begins. The comments flood in, usually from angry MAGA guys, Republicans, or just people who cannot believe a 3x11 inch piece of vinyl dared to hurt their feelings. And the thing is — I argue back. And no, I'm not embarassed.

People ask me all the time: “Why do you even waste your time?” The truth is complicated. I don’t argue just to dunk or to stir things up. I argue because I love debate, I studied political science and law at UW, and I genuinely want to understand why people believe what they believe. But so far? In hundreds of arguments, I’ve yet to see a single solid source. I’ve yet to hear a strong argument that cites anything beyond “I saw it online.” That part is scary.

And it’s also why I keep going. Here are five reasons I argue with haters on Instagram, and why I won’t stop completely.

1) It Shows How Easy It Is to Trigger People (with Bumper Stickers)

The easiest way to set someone off in 2025 isn’t a manifesto or a viral video. It’s apparently, and evidently, bumper stickers. A little rectangle that says something funny, political, or weird can make someone so angry that they stop scrolling and type paragraphs in rage.

I think that’s important. It proves that humor still hits. It proves that free speech still gets under people’s skin. And honestly? It proves my point: if vinyl on someone else’s car ruins your day, that’s not my problem — that’s you.

2) My Followers Love Watching the Chaos

Over and over, my followers tell me they love reading the comment wars. Some say it’s their favorite part of the page. They come for the funny stickers, but they stay for the debates, the roasts, the arguments. 

And I get it. Watching me push back against insults with actual logic is entertaining. Watching haters spin out without a source is hilarious. I don’t delete it because it’s part of the show.

3) I Argue Because I Want to Learn

This is the biggest reason. I studied political science and law. I was on debate teams. My instinct is to ask for sources and reasoning. I want to see the other side. I want to know why people believe what they believe.

But so far? No luck. There’s one post with over 200 responses, and not one person cited the original claim. Not one. They all swear it's true (BLINDLY!), but nobody can back it up to this day. It's just misinformation on repeat.

4) It’s Not Always Fun — It Can Be Dangerous

Arguing isn’t harmless. Some people don’t just insult my arm, my tattoos, my hands, or my car. Some go further. We’ve had attempts at doxxing. We’ve had stalker behavior. That’s the line where debate stops being funny.

I can laugh at a bad insult. I can laugh at weak logic. But stalking and doxxing are dangerous. That’s when political jokes cross into real-world threats. That’s why we sometimes have to step back.

5) We Take Breaks for Mental Health and Safety

With everything going on lately — from media storms to controversies around people like Charlie Kirk — political content feels riskier. We’ve seen people get cancelled, targeted, or flooded with threats for making jokes. A lot of it isn’t valid, but it’s draining.

So yes, we’ve taken breaks from political bumper stickers and posts. Not because we’re scared to joke, but because our mental health matters. Our safety matters. Sometimes, stepping back is the smartest form of free speech.

Why I’ll Always Argue (At Least a Little)

I roast everyone. Liberals, conservatives, “woke” culture, “anti-woke” culture, even myself. No one is safe from a good political bumper sticker or a chaotic meme. But only one group consistently loses it. Only one group writes essays about my arm instead of sources about their claims. And that proves something: debate is still necessary.

So yes, I argue with haters. I’ll keep doing it. Because free speech is supposed to be messy. It’s supposed to be loud. And if a bumper sticker on the back of a car can cause 200 comments of outrage, then that little vinyl rectangle is doing exactly what it was made to do.

Bumper stickers will always matter because they combine humor, politics, and free speech in one bold package. Funny stickers spark laughter in traffic. Political bumper stickers keep debates alive outside social media. Custom bumper stickers let people show identity without filters or algorithms. And durable vinyl bumper stickers make sure every message survives rain, heat, and car washes. Each bumper sticker proves free speech can be small, sticky, and impossible to ignore.

I mean, it's free speech after all.

Divorce Your MAGA Husband

10.50 USD

You’d think it would take something huge to make people furious online… but nope, just one little vinyl rectangle. Our Divorce Your MAGA Husband bumper sticker has single-handedly broken comment sections, flooded DMs, and sent entire threads into meltdown mode.
It’s always the same pattern: we poke fun at everyone — left, right, woke, anti-woke — but this design hits a nerve in a way few others do. And it shows something important: bumper stickers still matter. They’re tiny but bold, a piece of vinyl that can shake someone’s world from the back of a Subaru.
We’ve seen guys derail entire arguments over it, shift from politics to personal insults, and treat a joke sticker like it’s a direct threat to democracy. The funniest part? It proves exactly why we make these designs. Humor cuts deep. Satire reveals insecurities. And a sticker can still start conversations that last for days.
At the end of the day, if a bumper sticker on someone else’s car makes you that upset, the problem isn’t the sticker. It’s the mirror it holds up.
