No religious elements here, I don't believe it can be done.

Excuse me, trans philosophy runs as deep as any religion.

I'm with the Waco reference, but shouldn't it be Wacow?

I can't wait for a blurry cellphone photo to pop up of some dude just like, minding his own business on the side of the road, with the caption, "I SPOTTED THE NAZI!!!" to blow up on twitter

 

[<3Serbian Princess<3]

This is something that would be entertaining for sure.
I believe PETA has enough radical members to pressure these people into shutting down. Animal rights activists are a special breed of crazy.

I was gonna say, if they were under siege by a 'militia' it could just as easily be ALF/vegan riech hardline kids. That would be an interesting arch though lol

They only have Alpacas because there's a fuckton of government programs where you basically get everything to raise them for free and then sell their wool and milk for even more profit.

They're a great way to offset costs of more expensive farm animals like horses.

Alpacas are profitable? Curious. I always thought of them as like a vanity herd pet type thing.

Man I want an alpaca...

What the fuck is Tilda Swinton doing there

That's a male Swinton.

Christ, amazing thread @0 1. Never looked at the Kevin thread but now I have two threads to read for the price of one.

 

[Exceptionally Exceptional]

Jesus Christ almighty, those poor alpacas. They should be in a barn or stable, they're not supposed to be out in temperatures below 20°F and certainly not in the snow.

Hope a local calls the SPCA on their asses.

When the inevitable massacre happens, I want it to be known as the Tenacious Unicorn Ranch Farmers massacre, or TURF for short.

 

[Picnic_Boy]

It's keeping with typical troon self-awareness that they can respond to a struggling farmer by saying 'DIVERSIFY BITCH,' and go on to shamelessly plead and cry for money minutes later.

And here's the best part, 100% they did this to themselves and just didn't realize it.

I can off the top of my head think of 2 different ways this can happen and if I had to guess, this might be a case of both.

1) Colorado mountains in the winter are cold. The first result "tire overinflation cold weather" is a generic firestone tires blog which notes that tire pressure can vary by several PSI depending on the ambient temps at the time. So, fill up the tires when it's really cold? Yeah, you'll be a bit over when it warms up.
2) As anyone with a functioning brain can understand, but may not immediately recognize unless they follow car racing, tires heat up as you drive them and that is transferred to the air within, which then expands. Optimal tire pressure in racing is achieved under track conditions, as well as needing literal heat in the tires for maximum grip, which is why race-car drivers tend to do that back and forth swerving on safety or pre-race parade laps. I've noticed this on my car before to a lesser extent, where if I check the pressure before starting the car and then again when after some sustained and decent speed driving, that pressure has increased after driving for a bit.

I would not call either of these overpressure scenarios actual problems unless the tires are really overinflated to begin with, but between both of them I'd argue it is plausible they might see a 8 PSI overpressure or so combining the two...ignoring that this is a natural result of what they did to the truck prior to checking the pressure.

I wish I could find a copy of the "nazis are coming from inside your brain" meme edit of a WW2 propaganda poster I remember from so long ago, because I think its applicable.

You're overthinking this. As someone else said, it would be easier - and make more sense - to slash the tires but then people would expect pics as proof since they love to overshare and they're not about to slash their own tires. They have rubes that would believe a ridiculous 'they overfilled our tires somehow' tale since they wouldn't know any better.

The most important question in my mind becomes, if this becomes Tranch Davidians 2: Alpaca Troongaloo, what will the FBI project to try and break them?

Waco saw "these boots are made for walking" and the death screams of rabbits over loudspeakers.

Ginger Male Market Failure might be a bit niche for the FBI, perhaps just a nonstop loop of that "boys have a penis, girls have a vagina" audio clip?

Just loudspeakers blaring 'dude' and 'man' on a loop

also the logistics behind a millitia going and overfilling the tires...

Can you imagine what would happen if one of their tyres blew out due to over inflation or a lack of maintenance? Penny would swerve of their track and run over the alpacas screaming that the fash have booby trapped their land with IEDs...

Now the ranch has its own thread I am reminded of the old internet classic, "(LOL)Cows with Guns". The lyrics seem very apt.

We will fight for bovine freedom
And hold our large heads high
We will run free with the alpacas, or die

You heard it here, folks. Kiwi Farms advocating DOMESTIC TERRORISM on poor innocent small business owners who just want to be left alone.
And where is Null when all this is happening? RUSSIA

When will the Biden administration take the threat posed by online hate groups seriously? This site is effectively owned and operated by the Kremlin.

Of course the militia is a bunch of inflation fetishists.

It's some of the more expensive yarn fibers you can get. But you actually have to take care of them to get quality fiber plus making yarn is a lot more intensive than most people think. It has to be cleaned, carded, spun specific to different weights for different projects, measured, cut for individual skeins, and dyed if you're working with color which is a whole seperate pain in the ass. All of that takes expensive equipment, time, and energy. Just dyeing alone can take 20 minutes to 2 hours depending on the dye, shade, and number of colors. Personally when I dye fibers I set a day aside to do that so there's no distractions and less chance of screwing up.

I doubt any of these loonies can hold it together to make it profitable. Their caustic neuroses would fit well in the fiber arts community though. It's mostly hipsters and bitter liberal cat ladies.

Until the SPCA backs off when they realize it's ran by a bunch of mentally ill troons.

 

[Dickens Cider]

I wonder if it wouldn’t be cost effective to order all the wool from them in the hopes that while they are trying to harvest it they get killed by the alpacas via boots to the head... would be karmatic justice.
Also this is a fun new thread- love it when new stupid shit is brought to my attention.
