Sigh. If you run a *meme account!* (a confluence of words that makes my brain itch in an angry way) you should be immediately rounded up and forced to sit down and read all umpteen books of The Wheel Of Time until you can use the Internet again.

Or be shot directly into the sun on one of Elmo's 'splodey rockets.

Either one, I'm not picky.

Entirely apart from politics a plug for "World's Fastest Indian," about the Kiwi who set a Bonneville speed record riding a 1926 Indian. Anthony Hopkins plays the lead.

TL;DR - MAGA are bike curious

Nick Adams, an immigrant, complaining about a company with a logo of a Native American? You can't make this up.

These influencers are so stupid. This is exactly how teachers find out which students were handed the test answers ahead of time. Too many identical answers. Ha! They're absolutely telling on themselves and thinking they're slick.

They hate the other kind of Indians too. Also kudos to the graphics team, that is hilarious!

Yes I was thinking that would make a good wallpaper!

I have the impression that Indian, in their latest incarnation, has built up a small, devoted, somewhat hipsterish customer base.

This could be a genius marketing gimmick to capture manosphere-maga who are looking for something new and validating to orbit, as Trump withers.

lmfao at 'There’s another flaw in using MAGA world to sell Indian Motorcycle. It’s pitching a company called “Indian” at a time when the American right has been consumed with hate for people from the country of India.'

BTW, as an old homo, I once had a tryst with a guy who ended up marrying a woman and working for Harley Davidson. So maybe they really are a little gay?

I'm sure plenty of people will continue buying Harley-Davidson's beautiful machines, most of them utterly oblivious to this ridiculous "controversy". These MAGA people obviously have too much time on their hands. (I'm sure Indian - a company I know nothing about - also makes a fine motorcycle. )

Sorbo is as stupid as he looks.

Harleys are an ridiculous anachronism--they are heavy and slow--so, if you want to make a lot of noise, get a Harley and if you want to make a lot of horsepower, get a Ducati or a Kawasaki Ninja

This takes me back twenty years My daughter’s boyfriend had bought a 100th anniversary Harley in around 2005. They both loved that bike, and spent many happy hours on it. I knew he really loved her a lot when, two years later he sold the bike to buy her a ring. Nineteen years and two kids later, their devotion still runs deep.

Wow, the children are not playing nice. it's as though some one modeled churlish behavior, name calling, bullying.

MAGA has always been gay. Drag queen President into Village People. Why are they performing at the 250 celebration of Dear Leader?

To be fair he also enjoys the macho activities of interior decorating, gushing over the good looks of other dictators, commenting on the size of his golf hero's equipment** and spending hours daily working on his hair and tan. Easy to see why GOP Pols swoon in his presence.

** Arnold Palmer deserved better than this.

The grift is strong in these ninnyhammers. But when will they realize that they too are the mark?

Because the first word that comes to mind when thinking about Harley-Davidson is “gay”. Right? No. Badass, dangerous, rockstar… yes. And I’ve never even owned a bike.
