MEME WAR 2020 IS UPON US!
Almost every day, mods see or hear about pedes asking for .win merch, stickers, t-shirts, etc., and almost every day, people try to use .win as a place to share their stuff and make a quick buck by hitching themselves to the MAGA train.
The only merch we support and allow to be linked is the official campaign store: https://shop.donaldjtrump.com/
“But Shaaaarks, we the users want .win merch! We want to spread the word about .win! Give the people what they want!1!!!11!”
Okay, we can do that. Kind of. However, let us be clear from the start:
No Self Promotion
Linking or promoting merchandise, fundraising, or spamming personal websites, blogs, or channels is not permitted.
Per the rule listed above, any links or comments that could be considered self-promotion or solicitation will be removed. Please do not list direct links to shops or online retailers.
“But Sharks, I’m a simple pede. I don’t know how to print a sticker or make a t-shirt. Plz halp!” Well I’m glad you asked, because we have a solution.

Link
- You can do this with almost any meme! Be sure to find a .png file if you want a transparent background.
- If you want to spread the word about .win, make sure you pick a photo that has our URL “thedonald.win” on it.
- Download/save the image to your desktop in the highest possible resolution. (It is also possible to do this on a phone too if you’re committed!) The better the resolution, the better the quality of your finished product. (You can get away with small files for stickers better than you could for a t-shirt.)
STEP 2 - FIND A SHOP
- Now more than ever, it’s important that we support small businesses!
- Do a quick Google/DDG/search engine of choice search for “insert city/state custom sticker printing” or “insert city/state custom t-shirt printing”, filling in your area/city and type of item you want to create.
- Hopefully, several results should pop up for your area (meaning you may be able to pick up the items yourself and not pay for shipping, if they offer that option. Double win!). If not…
OR
- Do a quick Google/DDG/search engine of choice search for “custom sticker printing” or “custom t-shirt printing”, filling in whatever type of item you want to create.
- Bigger companies are likely to have built-in designing tools on their websites where you are able to add custom text, other images, etc.
Misc. Tips & Notes
- Usually, for screen-printed shirts, the fewer colors your design has, the cheaper it will be to print.
- Some sticker printers may require a bleed. This allows the design to be printed to the edge and then trimmed to size. For standard bleeds, keep critical text and design elements at least .125-.25 inches away from the edge while extending the background color/image all the way to the edges.
- If you have a favorite meme you think would make a great sticker, but don’t know how to add text to it, leave a comment with the image link! A fellow pede will likely be able to help you out.
- If you want one of the above graphics in a different size, feel free to leave a comment and I’ll do my best to get as many image links added as possible.
- Of course, keep doing what you’re doing by sharing memes and dropping redpills online. In-person memes are in addition to online meme warfare, not instead of!
- Share photos of your finished products! Stickers, t-shirts, coffee mugs, phone cases, car decals, or whatever your creative mind comes up with—show us!
- With print runs of things like stickers, the more you get the cheaper they are. So it would be cheaper to purchase a run of 100 than two runs of 50.
TheDonald.win has not ever monetized, and we will continue to abstain from that practice. Per the rule listed above (and also in our sidebar), any links or comments that could be considered self-promotion or solicitation will be removed. Please do not list direct links to shops or online retailers. We have that rule in place so no one can take advantage of our pedes, and you can always be sure that you're not getting content based on people trying to line their pockets.
MAGA/KAG!
Any idea if businesses have to apply to be labeled as black-owned by Google? Because being labeled as simply black-owned (although racist) isn't a reason to avoid a business. If they support BLM it is, but that's not what your link shows
It's the principle of the thing. These people won't stop until they've felt real pain. Besides, the businesses not labelled are being discriminated against, if they're worthy, support them, it's got zero to do with race.
Your statement to avoid BLM supporting businesses is fine.
Your link is to a post that says Google is identifying black-owned businesses.
Black-owned =/= BLM supporting in and of itself. So based on your own link, you made it entirely about race. That's what I was pointing out
Google doesnt do any work tho, except spending a few hours a month rewriting the history of white/black inventors. So I'd assume that getting the black-owned checkmark is something a biz owner has to proactively do, not something google will seek out. And since this feature is brand new the only biz owners doing it are the wokeratti, and sadly some based black entrepreneurs just trying to make a few extra dollars. I'd say those ones placed their bets, best of luck to you, and just avoid the BLM woke google tag altogether.
That's what my initial comment was asking - are the people claiming "black-owned" on Google doing it because they support BLM, because they want the extra money that could potentially come their way, or because they want to try to avoid being targeted and so will try to appeal to the mob?
u/Houdini didn't seem to grasp that. This differentiation is significant because discriminating against black owned businesses without knowing any other details about them is simply ignorant.
Don't be obtuse. It's about the practice of labelling businesses, that's what my link shows, that's what is being criticized.
