The idea of someone being mad at a Palestinian flag flown at a No Kings protest lets me know that some of us are okay with kings so long as they get to be king.
That is, there are many who only dislike oppression because they’re tired of waiting their turn to be the oppressor.

Remember when republicans protested Paul McCartney’s Super Bowl Halftime Show because he wasn’t American?
Yeah, that’s because it never happened.
But now, they want to do a Christian halftime show in protest because they think Bad Bunny is an immigrant.
But they’re not racist, right?

Some of us have been out here waving the flag on Christian nationalism and far right extremism for a while now - and sounding quite alarmist. But the last 29 days have vindicated us in the worst possible way

JON KARL: What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she's gonna go after hate speech? A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech
TRUMP: We'll probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. You have a lot of hate in your hate. Maybe they'll have to go after you.
