I have looked and looked, but there's nothing out there other than one small set on etsy (which I purchased).
Over the last year, I have made a ton of friends in the Resistance--some of them are the best friends I've ever had. I would LOVE to be able to give them cards with sentiments on them like "Keep fighting the good fight" and "When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty", "Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president" (T. Roosevelt), "You are a warrior goddess. Stand tall!" "Thank you"---for attending the rally/for joining the fight/for helping us out/for standing for truth.
Then a few images like a raised fist, a flag, etc.
I personally would use the heck out of this; do you think anyone else would?

If the sentiments are vague enough to be used for a variety of purposes, they just might have a market. It's when you get too specific that you're really limiting the reach.
"Stand Tall" and "Fight the Good Fight" are widely marketable.

I think some would use these - I do wonder if you would be able to make them in a large enough number to keep the cost at a point people were willing to pay.

I think they'd sell very well as digital stamps or a printable. Then anyone could instantly download, print, and use.

I haven't seen many. I did snag this one while it was available - maybe she'll bring it back again. (Star Wars stamps, but there's a Princess Leia with the " a woman's place is in the resistance" tagline). I usually wish list items for a long time before buying, but this one was in my cart and bought within 10 seconds of seeing it. This newsy one from Elle's Studio isn't exactly on point, but I keep wishing I had it every time I want to journal about politics. Anyway, I'm always looking for this kind of thing. I suspect there might be more supply/demand for this theme in the journaling community than in the traditional scrapbooking community (I scrap into TNs, so I feel like I straddle the two now). I have been able to find some really nice traveler's notebook charms and whatnot themed for the resistance!

I haven’t seen many, other than some of Kelly Purkey’s sets. Her Fight On, In the News, and Queen mini kit sets all have great stamps for resistance stories/photos. She also did a set of 6 badges last February with all proceeds going to PP. They had phrases like “Nevertheless, she persisted”, “I’m not giving up”, “Always stronger together”, etc. ETA: yes, I definitely think people would buy and use these!

She actually got a small backlash from some "fans" who said they wouldn't shop from her again because she was making these kind of products. That just made me want to shop for her more! The Fight On stamp set worked PERFECTLY for my layout when my girlfriends and I marched last year in the Women's March here in L.A.

The Fight On stamp set worked PERFECTLY for my layout when my girlfriends and I marched last year in the Women's March here in L.A. It is well documented on her social media (ig, for sure) that she is a liberal and was a huge clinton supporter. No one should have been surprised. Threatening her is kind of ridiculous. For as many appauled, there are just as many more inclined to shop...it is a wash. That's why the #boycotsoandso things when certain companies are for or against sonething are just plain dumb. Poor customer service...scandal...crappy products...now those will damage a business for more than a few days of boycotting over political beliefs.

I ordered the 3rd one when it briefly came back in stock, and it is on its way to my house. The 1st and 2nd ones were released on back order, so I placed an order for them as well - they should be shipped around the 23rd! 😀

Honestly, I'm glad I didn't know about the PP badges. I did order Fight On, because it is useful for all kinds of projects, but I never did order In the News. 😢

Here’s another sneak of the We Go High set from KP. I’m super excited about this one, and will definitely be ordering it.
