This changes nothing. Spend that political capital lefties. Lord knows the people in washington refuse to. You couldnt force me at gun point to support the GOP.

    I don’t see why someone waving the Mexican flag, would be fighting for American democracy…

    Do you actually need me to lead you around by the nose and explain to you that American citizens can hold a Mexican flag in protest?

    If you care about America, your country, and fighting Fascism, then you’re flying a US flag, and taking that symbol back.

    Then go fucking do it instead of being a keyboard warrior criticizing the people actually doing shit. Jealousy’s an ugly color.

      Do you need me to lead you around by the nose and explain to you that American citizens (Are they? You can’t tell that from a picture.) holding Mexican flags in protest, don’t give 2 shits about “saving American Democracy”, and care more about deportations only?

      I don’t see Mexican flags at “No Kings” protests. You know - The ones that are actually focused on American Democracy. I see American flags. Pride flags. etc. – Through all of these LA protest pictures, I see nothing but the flag of a foreign country…which I am saying plays into the story that Republicans are telling the American people.

        Fascinating you could determine from the picture that all of the thousands of people who showed up only care about deportations.

        Thankfully the people of LA are’t stupid enough to fall for this bullshit. We see our neighbors with Mexican flags every day, it doesn’t make them belong here any less.

        Through all of these LA protest pictures, I see nothing but the flag of a foreign country…

        Babe you already did this. Scroll up and follow the links this time.
