they wear identical black pork-pie hats with a white trim around halfway up the hat and generally dress like Jewish stereotypes, but I don't think they have any explicit indications of meshichism in their clothing
interestingly, I don't think I have ever seen these ones wearing the pins or using the Moshiach flag, though they do use the dark blue and yellow color scheme on their cards
the vibe I get from them is "Jehovah's Witnesses or the crazier variety of Mormon or the Rama Society of the Americas, but Jewish"

IIRC the Democratic Party's approval and disapproval among independents is similar to the Republican Party's and its low net approval is almost entirely due to Democratic partisans disapproving of it (which is to say mostly disapproving of Senate leadership)
the Dem party number is easily explained by the fact that bluesky is full of people who will crawl over broken glass to vote for Democrats in November and also hate Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries with every bone in their body
8 in 10 people used to work on farms in the 18th century, by the late 19th century, it was 1 in 2, now its like <1.5 in 100.
