I've seen one that seemed to be an exception to the rule. It was an RV covered mostly in anti-Congress, anti-corperation, anti-vax, anti-Isreal, anti-China, anti-Russia, and anti-CIA stuff. It called out several notable politicians from both sides as well as the entirety of the CIA for being pedophiles. There was a complete and surprising lack of culture war stuff and a couple equally surprising mentions of the war on drugs being bullshit. No racism that I noticed, no flags or symbols, and no direct mention of the police or military. It was parked near a stop sign on my way to work for several weeks and I feel like I noticed something new and confusing about it every time I drove by.
My best guess is that the owner doesn't vote at all.
What you saw there was a libertarian. Think "Republicans with ADHD".
It's all the hatred and paranoia of a Republican, without the ability to focus.
That's what I thought at first but there was a bunch of anti-cooperation stuff and those guys usually love big business. Maybe anarchist but I'd expect to see some iteration of ACAB if that was the case. I eventually gave up on trying to label them.
Seems like an extreme version of libertarianism.
