For Sale Cheap: Unwanted Pussy Hats

The nemesis of the moonbat is the free market. Moonbats live in an alternate reality constructed from lies. The free market does not lie. It tells you what is and what isn’t, not what ideologues would like there to be. Here is what it tells you about the “Resistance” movement characterized by silly-looking pink pussy hats:

[It’] not easy these days to be a subversive knitter, particularly if you want to make a living selling your perky, pink-eared knit hats to fellow progressives who feel wearing these things in public makes them look sophisticated and worldly, rather than like particularly woke Kindergarteners decked out in Hello Kitty finery.

An unscientific, several-day-long Heat Street study of eBay, Etsy and other Internet sale sites where the Pussy Hat trade once rivaled the gross domestic product [of] a small nation, shows sales have slowed to a trickle, with desperate knitters looking to offload their wares at deep discounts.

The “Buy it Now” range for new Pussy Hats is between $7.00 and $20.00, but even at the low end, the hats simply aren’t selling. As each auction Heat Street watched ended, the same Pussy Hats were often re-listed, at discounts of $2 or more. One retailer is so desperate, she’s knocked 40% off her listings, but the hats aren’t selling at $10, let alone $14.

Of 617 individual listings for Pussy Hats, only a handful had bids, and all of those had starting prices of $.99, with bids struggling to reach $5.

Used hats aren’t selling either, even if they are part of history and all.

But… but… what about The Resistance?

Although there are no more large-scale Women’s Marches on the calendar, the Women’s March itself claims that it will have several demonstrations in the future, for which Pussy Hats are undoubtedly needed.

Sagging pussy hat sales indicate that these marches will fail to materialize. The post-election tantrum is petering out.

If only the right people were in charge, wearing pussy hats could be mandated, and moonbats who knit them could earn a living wage. While they wait for the revolution, maybe they could try selling the hats to Swedish construction workers.
