Shortly after Trump was elected president, “HATE HAS NO HOME HERE” (HHNHH) yard signs began adorning the minority-manicured lawns of white-collar, white-skinned liberals. You’ve seen the sign. Its message is translated into multiple languages, which is meant to broadcast a globalist diversity of sorts by those who speak not only just English, but that sniffy dialect molded within the narrow confines of a university pedigree loftier than junior college but conspicuously short of Ivy League. You can all but hear them finish their Starbucks order with that irritating raised inflection on the last syllable.
The underlying message of the HHNHH yard sign is two-fold. First, it’s virtue signaling in its most tawdry form. Yard signs announcing “POVERTY IS BAD” and “I SUPPORT CURING CANCER” would ring just as hollow. Sorry, but you don’t get a cookie for broadcasting to the world that you oppose hate. Most people do, and their daily actions are sufficient proof thereof. A lion doesn’t need to convince people it’s a lion.
Second, the HHNHH yard sign alludes that a home which opposes President Trump is axiomatically hate-free, and, by deductive logic, a home which supports President Trump categorically welcomes hate with open arms. The sign smugly implies, “I'm a good person, and it's a shame that you're not.” This insinuation might not rise to the level of hate, but it certainly sinks to the level of arrogance, condescension, and sweeping judgment.
But over time the HHNHH yard signs faded along with the “I’m With Her” bumper stickers. The yard sign prophets needed something new, something snarkier, with which to impress their woke comrades and irritate the handyman who lives on the street’s only single story home. So a new yard sign was handed out that reads like a manifesto.

As the violent riots and looting continue in force and cities burn, none of those bumper stickers will ever beat their oh-so-clever “Love Trumps Hate” one.
One thing is certain: My neighbors who have posted “Hate has no home here” signs hate me with a purple passion because I’m a vocal Trump supporter.
Its good to know what your neighbors think and what kind of people they really are. Think about it. If your neighbor put up a “Biden for President” sign, would you want to have any substantive dealings with such a person or trust them in any matter of importance?
Simple, just slap a Trump 2020 bumper sticker on that- diagonal would be the best look. Then put it in the front yard along with the regular MAGA signs.
One sign on my road says, ‘Any Functioning Adult for President’
I guess that leaves Bye-Done out.
I love this democrat twit trap. Protect your yard signs.

A neighbor has a yard sign saying All Are Welcome Here, but that doesn’t mean “they” can knock on her door and expect a meal or a bed.
I haven’t seen those particular signs, but I’ve noticed a lot of ‘Be kind’ the past few years. But I think that’s an Ellen thing?
Good one.
I’m going to put a sign up at the road...CWBSOS.Commies Will Be Shot On Site.
Sight,site. No difference.
Why don't they just have a sign that says "I'M A MARXIST"....
my husband just asked me about these, apparently they have sprouted up all over the subdivision where he works.
I told him it’s a guaranteed Biden/Bernie supporter.
I like the “all are welcome here” and “there are no illegals”
I would like to pitch a tent in the front yard of one of these homes unannounced and find out how welcoming they really are. But I know the answer already.
Except to her staff......................
They’re all over my area. Now the snarky election signs are going up. ‘Any Functioning Adult 2020’.
HATE the self-righteous sly HHNHH garbage.
Then they try to tell you it’s just a good general message and has NOTHING to do with back-handedly calling Republicans hateful.
Bastards. They did that in my mom’s nearby hometown, having a whole town brouhaha over a very public “Xmas” display. I got the lecture and incredulous FB replies that it’s just a nice message and is not a jab at Republicans.
Same town that in June allowed “kids” to paint BLM all over their (unused) elementary school.
Another good solid American conservative town given over to damn hippies and their commie values.
