In our country, people have taken the American flag—a symbol of freedom—and twisted it to represent discrimination and violence. This is why many of the people often labeled as “libs” no longer fly it.
People claim that “libs” don’t support the military, but that is both untrue and overplayed. Who is actually cutting military budgets and firing service members? Trump.
We are fighting back, but the Trump administration is doing everything it can to silence us. Americans are boycotting Elon Musk. We are boycotting billionaires.
Tesla shares are dropping, and cars are piling up outside their factories. We are taking to the streets, filling town halls, and holding protests—many of which are ignored by the media. Thousands have even protested outside Tesla showrooms.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration is leading a government witch hunt. They are forcing us to take lie detector tests, going through our belongings, searching our PCs, making threats through the attorney general, targeting our judges, deputizing Elon’s staff—the list goes on.
Our military has never been anything but an extension of our imperialism around the globe, or the other despots we owe money to, like the Saudis. I should know.
Maybe if you all stopped being so war mad the rest of us wouldn't want to burn your stupid toilet paper flag.
How the hell did they brainwash an entire nation?
This is nothing new. This is an extension of how this country began, with genocide and slavery, and how it has continued with despotism, fascism, repression, both at home and abroad.
My USA flag has been in the house since Trump was in office before sadly even on special holidays. I don't feel the pride when he is in office. I felt didn't put it out because I was scared to fly it.
Just said that to my husband the other day, they’ve ruined the Am flag. It no longer stands for democracy, it’s no longer a symbol of pride, it’s become the new Nazi flag. Some people fly 2or3 in their yard or worse, on their pick up trucks where I live.
Flying flag and thumping chest and proclaiming "PATRIOTISM" just performative patriotism. Claiming label without putting forth effort to love country enough fight to make better.
Performative patriotism often regressive nationalism, wishing for day when women not vote, and blacks still slaves.
No. It is ALWAYS been a symbol of discrimination and violence all over the globe. You drank the koolaid and didn’t look at the facts of what your government is. How many leaders slain? How many US citizens held in bondage? How many indigenous people murdered? Where is this benign government? Where?
It is the “new” American way. I am a patriot but have different universal values than the current administration. The new world order will devolve into power-based politics with people at the levers that want destruction of the common citizen and enrichment of themselves.
The 25th amendment doesn’t apply when it became obvious they are Russian agents. This nullifies their titles in our government. Any and all of our law enforcement including our military have not just the right to remove them from our government, but a sworn duty to remove them. Immediately!
It is heartbreaking to see, how our friend for decades turns into something that evil. I think, only the American people themselves have the power to stop this by standing up, strong and undivided. And I hope they will, for peace on earth. You give me hope here, love from Germany 🧡
I couldn't be more horrified at the reception given to Zelenski today. The Trump administration has abandoned democracy. Ukraine's allies must unite and demolish Putin's regime for all our sakes.
Where has there ever been democracy in America? Was it slavery? Black women finally getting the vote in 1965? Full integration occurring in 2015? Abortion rights? One doesn’t have to fight a benign government for 3 centuries to get basic human rights.
Le pauvre homme était seul contre deux tyrans, dans une langue étrangère pour essayer de défendre son pays en guerre, trump ne veut pas la cessation des meurtres, il ne veut que les ressources naturelles pour les donner à poutine et musk.
Lithium pour les batteries de ces voitures qui ne se vendent plus. Des hommes-enfants qui font une crise en public comme un gamin à qui on a dit non pour un sachet de bonbons au magasin. Heureusement que le ridicule ne tue pas ou ils seraient tous six pieds sous terre.
What is he doing that America has not always done? People have been fighting this “government of freedom” for three centuries to get basic human rights. What on earth are you talking about.
My Dad was in Normandy as well. Saw all the horrors. He would tear up if he had to talk about it which he usually could not. I cannot believe this is how we have evolved. It’s truly unAmerican to support Trump.
One of my little acts of resistance & standing up for democracy~ I have a little, plastic flag that kids wave at parades, today I taped it upside down on one of my windows.
Soviet Union 2.0
Anyone for true democracy will be labeled as a "woke" enemy by an old man in adult diapers, a man who chooses to wear little boy pants out in public ... and a drugged out billionaire who wants to cosplay as a brilliant genius.
They are all treasonous failures. Let us not forget.
Where is the best place to send donations to support Ukraine in their fight against Russia?
If our president won't do the right thing, we as citizens can.
Not entirely. According to the work that https://electiontruthalliance.org and https://smartelections.us have been doing, the great majority of us didn’t choose this. We’re being held hostage by dangerous narcissistic bullies, and we’d do well to remember that we’re not in the minority.
I still don’t understand what that has to do with my post regarding interference in our 2024 presidential election, resulting in the election of a candidate who most likely shouldn’t even be here. Your response to me seemed, at best, a non-sequitur. Have a good day!
it's like watching a remake of the apprentice in the oval office. That's the current level of US diplomacy.
DOGE should make some efficiency at the State Dept, there is no point for them.
It's un-American and the VAST MAJORITY of Americans are horrified and ashamed. We do not support this absolute incivility. We stand with Ukraine. We stand with President Zelensky.
You want to act? Go make a sustaining donation to the Zelensky fund. Phone your representatives and senators, especially the fascists and let them know in certain terms how disgusted you are with them supporting these pootin lickspittles who ambushed a brave war leader.
I am astonished this isn’t already happening. Small protests yes, but not the masses we need. Media won’t cover it effectively. That’s part of the problem.
It seemed like a staged confrontation, started by JDV. What's their end game here? Everything points to Russia. Pres. Zelenskyy was the only adult in that room! 🇺🇦
Thanks
I saw the comments and didn’t know where to start so I picked a few.

Do these idiots really exist?
I was stunned when their post scrolled down🤢🤢🤮🤮
"Congratulations on enabling the desecration of America.
Your carnal fantasy of a POTUS is crashing the economy, and proving himself incapable of statesmanship. He is betraying long standing global alliances and is shaming our once great nation.
Take the veil off of your eyes."
Watched that play out in S. FL for 50 yrs. The Cubans fled socialism, but when they come here, they support all the bad things, the corruption, cronyism nepotism, and authoritarianism, and oppose all the good things, the free health care, cheap education, etc.
The shakedown backfired. Trump looked ill and weak. Zelenskyy saw what was coming and the end result was always going to be same. He just maintained his own, and his countries dignity. Brave Hero before our eyes!!!
Roy Kohn would have given him a stern talking to. A mobster can't look stupid, weak and pathetic while he's issuing threats like that. Trump should know better.
BLOG: This debacle - an attempt at bullying on a national scale - confirms that Russia and the other fascist state - the United States - seek to carve up Ukraine. All democracies must reject this outrage. The US is not Europe’s ally, it is its enemy. Act now! https://www.jandehn.com/post/molotov-ribbentrop-pact-2-0
Unfortunately, you're right.
There are millions, maybe as much as a third of America, who are as cruel and cowardly as Trump, Vance and Musk.
They are willing to sacrifice themselves on the altar of ignorance.
Which of many things that happened today? Or should we be assuming by now that everything Trump’s administration does is disgraceful and completely in-American?
Absolutely abhorrent treatment of President Zelensky. The acrid taste of disgust and repulsive trail of slime left after that meeting will taint the history of the U.S forever.
Maybe consider that it *is* being American to half of your country. Yes, it's disgraceful but a large percentage of your country voted for just such behaviour.
I think yesterday was the final hazing step for Trump to become one of Putin's handpuppet gang members. The United States bled in an is now part of the Axis of Evil.
I don't know why every time I de this meme I think of blockbuster. It's annoying! Recently, found my blockbuster keyring card. Brought back memories of all those late fees...
Sovereign nations have the right to form alliances as they see fit. Nothing in the North Atlantic Treaty forbids a subset of NATO countries from entering into a separate defensive treaty.
Such a separate treaty could replicate many of NATO’s collective defense commitments, particularly Article 5.
We can more loudly voice our dissent until they have no choice but to listen.
Call every republican official in your state to voice your opposition to this disgraceful destruction of our country.
Demand they put country over cult/party.
When we can, vote them out.
Those who can, protest @ capitals.
Only 1/3 of us did but because of our messed up electoral college system and all the protest voters who couldn’t be bothered to vote for Kamala because “But Gaza!” here we are. Same way that Hillary won the popular vote by a landslide in 2016 yet he was declared the winner. And the world suffers. 😞
Unfortunately yes unAmerican based on previous presidents, but not this one. We will wait until the orange felon is gone. Him and the couch lover were a disgrace. Time to get rid. But if he stays this is what America is. Putins flunkeys. Ukraine was treated abysmally.
I wish I could agree, that it is un-American - but this is the other side of the American coin. This is TR's 'big stick' - when an arsehole doesn't understand speaking softly, and believes that a big stick gives him authority, this is what it looks like.
I miss the days when POTUS was just a guy. He had lots of very smart people around who could have very smart conversations, but he knew his job was to smile and shake hands and (importantly) not be seen to piss anyone off, because he might need that person tomorrow.
What has happened today is an absolute disgrace but it is completely American. Americans always think everybody owes them. Always think they are superior to everyone else. Always were arrogant. It's time the world finally wakes up to it.
World acknowledges the US as a pariah state now under the orange clown and sincerely hope the good people of America can withstand the impending backlash that will isolate the US for the foreseeable future
I bet if we had an election today, Trump would not win. I bet he would get maybe only 15% of the vote. That’s how bad he is pissed off everyone. I still don’t think he won the last election either. But that’s another post.
Nevada Has Already Said They Have Found Vote Tampering Of Hundreds Of Absentee Ballots For 2024 Election, There Audit Could Reverse The States Electoral Count, But Not The Election. Iowa Also Checking Ballots, Along With A Few Other Swing States... Many Are Pointing At Post Master General DeJoy
I will never believe that there are enough stupid people in this country to go vote for him. Most of them are too stupid to understand how to register to vote. I know they cheated and they cheated in multiple ways.
🤗 Thanks to Elon M. who knows no limits in his (self-)destruction mode, the fascist nightmare will finally implode. His special madness is too much for too many and unites people even more through mass protests and all kinds of resistance. You will get your real country back sooner than later!💜
I want to believe you. I do. All the hope in me wants them to cause their own downfall. Unfortunately, we're not up against one or two or even ten men. We're up against everyone they've inspired and empowered, too. It's not 100 guys in office; it's also the people who believe in them.
If the US military was on their side, I would be less hopeful. I don't think that Trump has won the military over. And your collective fighting power is enormous!🗽🗽🗽
The military people that I know are not on his side and would never follow an unlawful order. They take a oath to the constitution not to a man or a president.
“But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.” #Resist
RIGHT ON! Why don’t we Democrats switch to Independent to send Dems a message? Then switch back as we need to vote??? Let’s start a movement! REPOST
#switchingtoindependent #resist
Now, what else can we do to “show the world” we are fighting back? Lock arms and march? Sit side by side and refuse to leave? I’m in for it all! Our time is now. We have to get VERY visible! Time is running out.
When considering how many of registered voters voted for him -- 37% -- that number tells us something depressing cuz this didn't have to happen & at the same time something hopeful cuz just maybe there's a whole bunch more who don't side with him & that could make all the difference if we hurry.
There are more and more serious studies about election anomalies. I am German and my psychological knowledge about fascism includes this: Whatever fascists do themselves, they project onto others. You have been manipulated not to look deeper at the election results because it seems to be so MAGAish
You can look as deep as you want be Trump simply has a lot of support in the US. Look at your own country or the Netherlands to see it is not really strange to have far right climb up. And the USA has a two-party system in reality so this is what you get.
So: not really un-american.
It is not HALF, not even close. Musk helped him cheat and I will never not believe that. The red hat brigade is small, they are just loud and also get help from Russian troll farms / bots. Trump is a Putin puppet and everything he is doing is orchestrated by Putin.
From my German viewpoint the best and the worst could always be found in the US at the same time. But this time, the majority is not with Trump and even those who really voted for him, have partially changed their mind. So there is hope!
The sad thing is half of us think that was un-American and the other half lives in a pro wrestling fantasy world and either doesn’t notice how unacceptable that was or was cheering it on. And that pro wrestling fantasy has been part of our culture for 50 years. Now it has taken over all the power.
I want to support Ukraine. How can I show support to President Zelensky and Ukrainians? Zelensky kept his cool today while Trump and Vance wanted to shame him in front of the media. Ukraine is being bullied by Trump. No surprise as Trump is a bully.
I think mump just triggered MMR for me, and I think I’ll just call him prez measles, since that’s all he’s accomplished.
Other than ruining the US and being an embarrassment and a bully, and a Russian asset. Oh. Guess there’s a lot of words to work with, huh. lol
Looked like a drama barrage. They took Zelensky wrong he meant
you may have an ocean away you will see the benefits. meaning we are protecting you and you benefit. the language is being interpreted differently. Europe, Trump underestimates their buying power. Ukrainians deserve our Thank you!
Comments
Just to piss him off
How the hell did they brainwash an entire nation?
Performative patriotism often regressive nationalism, wishing for day when women not vote, and blacks still slaves.
None of that describes Trump/Vance/MAGA.
It does describe, however
Zelensky.
The real leader is quiet and will act more when needed. Like Ukraine 🇺🇦
The USA is just yelling to hear itself yell w/ Trump as President
I'm good with that.
And Vance has his whole “I’m a man, let’s have men be men” because of his micro penis?
He had to get the couch, because women don’t want him?
And he’s not ready to come out?
All speculation, of course.
Votes w/o R🤥

Thank you for the suggestion.
I hope you’ve had a good day as well!
This regime is not gonna listen to judges.
Never been able to figure that out.
I was sure that would work.
There are millions, maybe as much as a third of America, who are as cruel and cowardly as Trump, Vance and Musk.
They are willing to sacrifice themselves on the altar of ignorance.
Donald Trump speaks only for Putin.
Trump dishonors everything honorable,
deliberately tearing this country apart, to benefit Putin.

We won’t.
Unless you can finally rid yourselves of the Evangelical Taliban Kleptocracy.

This was treasonous. Trump admitted he went through things w Putin. You're not supposed to.
Impeach!
The list of things this admin has done so far is frightening then this. He's our guest.
So: not really un-american.
Many times smaller nations were left alone by the USA.
