Fun with MAGA

This was actually a little before MAGA, more during the Teabagger movement.
There used to be a little restaurant about a mile and a half from my house. It was right wing central. I went in one day on my way to pick my son up at school for a cup of coffee and an English muffin, as I was a bit early. I saw that they had two big screen TVs, with FOX blaring away.
At this point the fun began. I noted the brand of TVs and got a universal remote. I programmed it for their brand of TV set and afterwards I would go in and covertly change the channel to PBS or anything but FOX. Sometimes I would change it on the way out, sometimes I wouldn’t change it at all just so they wouldn’t associate me with the change. I never got caught.
Eventually the place closed and never reopened.
I would never ever encourage anyone to do such a thing.
