Some of the comments here are indicative of a grudging but unmistakable realization on the part of the naysayers that, even now, our side has once again, for the umpteenth time, been proven right. But I don't blame them; I rooted for the opposition during the disastrous Obama/'Xiden' regime, as well.
Yes, there is some hypocrisy on both sides of the political aisle.
I don't engage with ideologues.
They will never understand california. Its productivity and acceptance and defiance of being invaded intimidates them so.
If off I apologize. Can't get the article to load so went with it.
I wish the protesters more strength and energy. I hope they will prevail against fascism. β🏿β🏿

Fuck MAGA!
@DrPepper12 @OddBeMe @Danzigdawson Enjoy having sex with MAGA, hopefully the 3 of you will become more politically Right afterwards ;)
yes, the irony of it all.
@exitseven Hired by trump just as I assume his hitman were.
Only trump moment. Ten people do not make a riot. They make a film cast.
reak big irony alright. except you libtards try to rub it in our faces. making you all the bigger hypocrites
Pedophile child mutilator flag, disgusting and sick.
@DonaldDarko can you imaging if Trump hang the confederate flag in the white house like this?
They'd go ape and start making videos chewing up the upholstery in there cars again.
they tried to bring their degeneracy into the school department and practice it near our children. so fucking peaceful!
For those who claim to have been so desperate to flee to the US from a shithole country that they literally break into here, they really seem to want to turn it into that very country. They also freakout at the thought of ICE deporting them back to that very country too, despite waving its flag and saying how great it is.
Then come in legally instead of breaking into the country.
There are guards there are there not? You think they'll just stand around if there are kidnappers around? How is that not safer than walking through a gaping vulnerability with no one around?
The thickness of the irony - the way I see it - is the worshipping of some colourful fabric.
We see it from similar angles: to over-rate a mere symbol will require one to be an idiot.
Sadly, the world population has more idiots than geniuses.
Which could be an advantage for the flag-making industry, though.
About 'self-identification'... well well... when it doesn't work with genders, I wonder if the extreme opposing sides (by self identification) probably are one and the same in reality?
I don't think about what they do, but rather how they do it. In both cases I see willful trouble making without contributing lasting and constructive solutions that are agreeable to all involved.
The confederate flags and those flags of the confederacy are all American flags.
Flags of the confederacy are still flown

Why wouldn't she after all you people vote for the political party that supported slavery, and Jim crow, and block busting, and redlining.
Even now the democrats still want slavery , that's why they don't want illegals deported.
@captain_voidwalker sigh, does it bother you that all the KKK and neo nazis vote republican? That's why you fucks go back 160 years as if the same political parties exist?
Maybe stop agreeing with present day neo nazis and KKK
No more than it should bother you that pedophiles tend to vote democrat.
@captain_voidwalker its true. I mean Biden supported segregation. Democrats love cheap labor. Neo nazis and kkk members don't vote at all.
Actualy most pedophiles are college professors.
Well documented. Biden like Robert Byrd is an old school Democrat.

Gotta love that ledtist logic. Ignore reality tp suit thier convenience
@captain_voidwalker what's reality? Byrd took a famous 180 on racism and that's when he and Biden filmed that clip.
If you think about it Mexico flag is a flag of racism. How many natives did they have scalped under that flag?
No but the aztecs loved sacrificing women and children
@captain_voidwalker Mexicans paid more for scalps
Well you know these people believe in a warped interpretation of history spewed out by thier gender studies professor
@captain_voidwalker according to them white men in cotton uniforms went into the Africa in the heat with butterfly nets to enslave Africans when the real truth is that they just bought the slaves that were already enslaved by Africans. The African slaves trade existed since the times of the pharaohs and exists to this day. In fact there's more Africans in slavery today than there's ever been.
Always nice to see the blame people today for shit that happened a hundred years ago argument
Says the guy who voted for a man who supported segregation
it's funny how the democrats scoff at this flagg, when it's them who created it in the first place :D
F**K THE CONFEDERATE SLAVERY/MURDER, R*PE/TRAITOR/LOSER RAG !!!
Its fun how they think national geographic is above faking a photo
people have a right to be heard. they do not have a right to throw bricks at moving vehicles or the heads of government law enforcement. It's not super complicated.
"I love uneducated people"
As long as the flag represents racism itβs fine
CSA - the A stands for America. Hope this helps.
Except, Mexico lost the Mexican-American War. Just as Great Britain lost the American Revolution. Great Britain has no greater claim to United States soil than Mexico.
Iβd rather be under southern state rule than yankee rule.
i donβt agree with the kkk, Iβm not a democrat.
We'd kick the dems out.
The dems were the ones fighting to keep slavery
You know how they all vote? Prove it.
President Woodrow Wilson Ph. D, - Democrat, was obviously a well educated and was distinctly three things no other United States President was before or has been after him. One of only two presidents to be a βcitizenβ of the Confederacy, the only President to earn a Doctorate, and the only president to be a card carrying member of the Ku Klux Klan. The term βDixiecratβ and βSouthern Democratβ exists for a reason. One can try with all their might mind and spirit to align the remaining fringe white separatist groups with Lincolnβs GOP, but the Democrat Party can NEVER claim support for the 13th Amendment nor the Civil Rights Act of 1964, championed by their own Democrat President from Texas, Lyndon, Baines Johnson. Odd β¦ even if your assertion is true and correct over the GOP receiving separatist support over the last 50 years, where does this excuse the Democrat Party from their blatant support for their clearly documented violence, segregation, and denial of rights against nom-whites? You are attempting moral superiority under a party with a very long history of hate, murder, and separatism. A party that was lauded by Adolf Hitler himself for their eugenic policies of removing nom-white elements from society.
Whereas there may be dip shits supporting the GOP, the GOP itself NEVER openly supported the separatist causes the Democrat Party historically has. That party exists because separatism legitimately does still exist through βhipβ unique βidentityβ labels.
Bigotry is bigotry. How many clearly identified GOP members of that party have partaken in a single transgression that members of the Democrat Party have?
Rightwing β¦ it fascinates me that progressive leftism gets rebranded as βRightwingβ when it becomes inconvenient for the βprogressive internationalβ movement. https://progressive.international
βNaziβ stand for national socialist. It was a βprogressiveβ movement. Marxism, another progressive movement fascism, an Italian phrase, a derivative of another national socialist movement inconvenient isnβt it, βLeftβ?
None of it ever elements of the βRightwingβ.
@MannMitAntworten go back to the kids table. There's right wing socialism dipshit. Just like capitalism.
And still neo nazis and KKK vote republican. Maybe try changing that.
Kids table. Your choice of language and responses clearly illustrates you incapable of carrying an adult conversation. Your refusal to admit Socialism is a product of leftism/progressivism and never a product of the of the Right, demonstrates you are merely arguing from an emotional position. Nothing else. That the fringes of the Right (I assume you are referring to white separatist groups) who carry socialist leanings does not indicate the Right at large is remotely socialistic. In contrast, Leftism embraces socialism and collectively belong to an international organization to strengthen their centrist position. Odd, Socialism is merely Feudalism rebranded.
@MannMitAntworten All good now darling boy? Trying to argue at the adults table.
You can photoshop anything...
Down with racism maga!!
@beefcakebradybatson One mans opinion
People that wear masks outdoors are liberal.
Cloth masks aren't filters and offer zero protection from COVID. Also there is no threat for outdoor spread of COVID unless you are essentially making out with someone who has it.
I guess they can make a new meme :P
Photoshop.
What is? Trump and confederate flags together? It's from nat geo. But here are other examples. You ain't seeing traitor flags at Dem rallies.
