They clearly aren't the brightest crayons in the shed

Does Disco Elysium qualify?

Contains overtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. Features multiple LGBTQ+ characters, including the player character. Heavy social commentary regarding communism. Whether pro or anti is unclear.

I dunno, this tool seems like a gloryhole with no guarantee of what'll happen if you use it.

Those old white people who go to Republican party meetings

Coprolites

I've found that the only line I'm willing to draw in terms of who is and isn't socially-minded for progress is between those of us who want to build an end of the political spectrum to make things better, and those who want to revert to some earlier form that led us to where we are now, or just enforce the status quo because the burning room they're sitting in seems fine compared to the uncertainty of change.

Even the kerning is dumb

Trauma Team just seems like the logical extension of what we have now.

I was in the same place, and eventually just bit the bullet and started getting them printed by a company, and I'd use money from side projects to buy batches of 50 or so. Now I sell them, and it makes some money, but not a lot. First I was using StickerMule until they turned out to be kind of fashy, so I switched to customstickers.com. It isn't free, but now my designs don't wash off in the rain, and if I spend a bunch of time on a design, I don't have to draw it every time I want a sticker of it.

Otherwise, USPS labels are your friend. Avery products come off insanely easily, and printer ink bleeds/fades.

Without a detailed graph of all of the policies, actions and history of each organization so you can compare and contrast them all, and the willingness for each person to study that graph, there is no way to get people to know the difference.

Most people don't know the difference between the United Kingdom, the British Isles, England, Great Britain, Ireland and the Crown Dependencies are, or what all of the different subdenominations of Christianity are, as you mentioned. Without a large degree of interest in learning what the differences are, or a high level of pertinence to someone's life, educating them to the differences and similarities would be next to impossible.

The best you could probably do is have a one-sentence summary of what each group is all about, and hope that your audience doesn't immediately discount it based on what they think they know about that group. For example, "Hamas: Their unifying tenet is armed resistance to Israeli occupation of Palestine". If the general sentiment towards Hamas by the West is anything to go by, your audience would probably question even that. If it was easy, it would have been done already.

It's an uphill battle.

Maybe this is why they got the tiny desk. It's a prop that's meant to be broken at some point.

I am more than ready to believe that Chinese healthcare is better than US healthcare, but the delivery and wording of that video make it seem like 100% propaganda.
