He produced a report with citations to sources that don't exist. These aren't gotcha questions. They're legitimate. And no amount of pre-guidance would make any justification he provided stand up

Then why is Trump giving exception to farms and hotels? If Americans are so in favor of deportation, everyone should have to suffer the consequences together

So at what point do we admit that we're basically in another civil war?

If Mark wants to fight with right wing bots, trolls, and MAGA zealots, Twitter and Facebook are where he should be. And that's ok. Keep the crazy off of this platform

If they highlight the freedom of assembly part, they lose out on the outrage coverage they need for their freedom of the press claim

More productive would be giving them something they'll have a hard time spinning - US and CA flags on all of the protesters. Show the country that this is an attack on America, not some legitimate US government action against a Mexican invasion like they're trying to make it

If your point is nothing matters anyway so fuck it, then.. 👍

If you look at the video of a spray painted vehicle flying the flag of a different country - doesn't matter what county - doing donuts in the middle of a crowd of people as being "in control" and somehow productive to the goal then we live in different worlds

Republicans are a messaging machine thanks to Fox News and it's clones. Democrats are absolute dog crap at it

It can. And if you think it can't happen to you then I guess we're done here

I guess maybe tell that to the people being snatched off the street. Pretty sure they want someone to fight by their side.

When I watch mainstream news it's typically BBC.. so I'm aware of the spin that most US based media puts on things. And I still stand by my original post

You want people to fight with you, they have to believe in your cause. It's 100% optics

Then help me understand the kind of media you think I should be consuming. Be specific

So you're framing this as a fight to have Mexico reclaim California?

Again, I'm a few hundred miles away. I don't meet people that were there on the street. I experience this like most of the country - through social media or what's on television. So, respectfully, Jesus Christ what do you expect?

Then show them. Every post I've seen, every TikTok video.. even the one that started this thread.. shows Mexican flags. That's what I'm seeing and I'm in the same state. Imagine how this looks across the country. It's not a Mexuco vs US fight but it looks like it
comment in response to
post
Thanks for understanding, but it sounds like you're saying the American flag, or even the California flag, doesn't represent non-white people? Only the Mexican flag can represent Hispanic people?
comment in response to
post
Doesn't bother me at all. In a May Day celebration? Great. In a fight protecting people in the US against the government, it's the wrong messaging. But fight the fight you think you're having

c:/Calify/California
comment in response to
post
I live in Northern California and I know Calify loves is proud of its Mexican heritage, but right now it's about American citizens AND residents standing up to the American government. Let them show that on Fox News. Don't make it an America vs Mexico thing. That's not what this is
comment in response to
post
Did you even read what I wrote? Nothing is wrong with the Mexican flag, but this isn't Mexico. We're talking about defending a US state against the US government. Use the US flag or the California flag unless you don't think those should represent everyone that's here?
comment in response to

What part of that is racist? Please
comment in response to
post
This is the stuff that ends up on Fox News as propaganda. A spray painted cybertruck with a Mexican flag. I love Mexico. Mexico is great. But we need to be using the California flag and maybe not making it look like we're out of control. In a war of images, this doesn't help

Wouldn't this mean American forces would potentially be on opposing sides? Not sure if that would be a good idea optically

He'll fix the weather maps with a sharpie and claim all of the damage is fake news. We've seen this show before

Pretty sure England didn't like the violence and vandalism of the colonists either, but there's a legitimate time and fighting back against a fascist group calling itself the US Government fells like that time

Pride didn’t start as a celebration. It started as a protest. We have nothing to celebrate and everything to protest

The GOP is setting the house on fire and Schumer is acting like they just burned some toast. He’s not fit for this moment

He always talks and tweets using extremely vague language and I’ve never heard one reporter ask him to clarify. We just accept it like it has meaning. It’s insane

If they’re looking for the Dem Joe Rogan, they aren’t looking for a journalist. Joe Rogan isn’t a journalist. They’re looking for a propagandist

It would be sweetly ironic if he ends up paying the price for the devastation that he caused at the hands of the fascist state that he enabled

His salary is paid by US taxes and he’s a “billionaire”. He thinks kids get 30 dolls for Christmas. Pretty sure he doesn’t care

It’s a movie themed posts day for him. He’s also putting a 100% tariff on non-US made movies, so…

If the Democrats win the midterms and take both houses of congress.. and if all of them hold together and vote as a block, then yeah.. but with Democrats like Fetterman, that’s not a given
