Wow. It speaks for itself.
Something weird caught my eye though. Unless I'm seeing things sideways from reading that whatever it was, the creator is in Los Angeles and rants about the USA, but the campaign asks for Canadian dollars.

I'm gonna call this a troll and keep it rolling, mostly because it's the only way I can retain my tenuous grasp on sanity.

Why haven't we "Royal Flushed" traditional playing cards down the proverbial toilet yet?
The journey to sell 100 million decks per year starts with a single deck.
There are no challenges. We. Will. Not. Be. Stopped.
Dafuq did I just read? Is this real life? I guess I wish them luck on...whatever this is...smh

I was so blown away by the manifesto that I didn't even catch that the goal is just under $75,000 USD. So he only needs to raise JR kind of money, no problem!
It also leads me to believe this is probably a prank. If not...

First time creator with a 75k funding goal, bunch of BS in the campaign description and kings and queens replaced by presidents and vice presidents.
Can I please have whatever he is smoking?

Putting aside the manifesto (could be a troll, but you never know with Poe's law), this deck seems pretty bland of course. Granted, I kinda like the aces, but the rest is just lazy, minimalist copy & paste.

I'd like to nominate a new category for DotY 2019:
Worst Failed Kickstarter Campaign
This one's at the top of that list.
