This is a Real Advice Post. Spent 5 minutes trying to scrape a nazi sticker off a sign. Embarrassing! Next time, I'll be prepared with a roll of mini gorilla-brand duct tape

In my experience I've never seen this but trying to scrape off metal backed stickers can do the same anyways

I haven't seen it in person either, just something I've heard from other leftists.

Conspiratorial take: This myth is artificially propagated to make leftists fear the direct action of removing a sticker

I wouldn't put it past them

It does have a very "check your kids' candy to make sure no one put razors or fentanyl in it" vibe to me. A very scary thing everyone is told to look for but no one has actually seen.
That said I have seen news reports about lawn signs with razors

Oh lawn signs with razors are 100% a thing, I've had MAGA neighbors do the same thing. I'm surprised we've only had a few shootings this year over lawn signs.

Some nazis have also been known to booby trap their stickers with razor blades, to cut the fingers of anyone who tries to remove them. Covering them with tape or your own stickers is better for more than one reason.
