Utopia Talk / Politics / Democrats literally hate America

Rugian Member	Wed Jul 03 18:40:14 So much for stopping at Confederate monuments with the memory hole bullshit. The Trump campaign thanks these unhinged morons for securing 2020 for them. ---- Julián Castro, Beto O'Rourke back Nike, saying Betsy Ross flag is 'hurtful' By Joseph A. Wulfsohn | Fox News It was inevitable that the 2020 candidates would weigh in on the Betsy Ross flag-sneaker controversy. Two Democratic hopefuls have expressed their support for Nike after the sportswear company pulled sneakers featuring the Betsy Ross-designed American flag ahead of the Fourth of July holiday. The company did so after former NFL quarterback and Nike endorser Colin Kaepernick raised concerns about the shoes. Former HUD Secretary Julián Castro told CBS News on Wednesday that he was "glad to see" Nike remove the shoes from the shelves, comparing the "painful" symbol to the Confederate flag. MSNBC GUEST COMPARES BETSY ROSS FLAG TO WEARING A 'SWASTIKA' "There are a lot of things in our history that are still very painful," Castro explained. As an example, he cited "the Confederate flag that still flies in some places and is used as a symbol." Former Texas congressman Beto O'Rourke also approved of Nike's decision, noting that "white nationalist groups" have "appropriated" the Betsy Ross flag. "I think its really important to take into account the impression that kind of symbol would have for many of our fellow Americans," he said, according to Jewish Insider senior political reporter Ben Jacobs. http://www...betsy-ross-flag-is-hurtful.amp
Rugian Member	Wed Jul 03 18:41:15 Its simple. When November 2020 comes around, you can vote for one of several parties that do not host America. Or you can vote Democrat.
Rugian Member	Wed Jul 03 18:43:01 do not *hate America
Im better then you 2012 UP Football Champ	Wed Jul 03 18:54:21 You know it is possible to hate white nationalist symbols and not hate America.
Rugian Member	Wed Jul 03 19:00:20 A white nationalist symbol...as of, what, three days ago? This "controversy" over the flag didn't exist until that untalented failure of an NFL player made an issue of it, and you know it. (btw, remember when NFL kneelers supposedly weren't protesting the flag and country, just a specific BLM issue? I remember. Good times debunking that blatant lie) But sure. If this is the hill you want to die on, be my guest. Calling the American flag a racist symbol. Great strategy for winning elections, bro. At this rate, how long do you think the Trump dynasty's hold over the White House will persist? I'm thinking 2060 at least, but that's just my own opinion.
Im better then you 2012 UP Football Champ	Wed Jul 03 19:28:14 I seriously feel sorry for you if something this silly can trigger you. Here is a Nike shoe with the modern American flag. No one has complained http://www...Z7ACh1HDQrCEAQYBCABEgJHpPD_BwE
Rugian Member	Wed Jul 03 19:50:14 If you'll pay attention, I'm not complaining about a gutless company going full PC. I'm complaining about Democratic Party politicians endorsing this bullshit, as if it was all an acceptable position for an American political party to take.
Rugian Member	Wed Jul 03 19:51:27 And yes, "multiple presidential candidates condemning the American flag as a racist symbol" is a trigger-worthy event. Sorry bro.
Im better then you 2012 UP Football Champ	Wed Jul 03 19:52:47 Do you own a "Betsy Ross flag"?
Forwyn Member	Wed Jul 03 19:53:40 "white nationalist symbols" Kill yourself
Rugian Member	Wed Jul 03 19:54:08 No. But I'm now considering acquiring one.
hood Member	Wed Jul 03 20:15:54 Nazis fighting to keep the flag of the american slavery rebellion alive and relevant just isn't surprising. Nor is rugian being an unabashed nazi.
Rugian Member	Wed Jul 03 20:23:36 hood, When are you being evacuated to Israel to escape the rabid leftist anti-Semitism that is currently plaguing this country? Just curious.
Forwyn Member	Wed Jul 03 20:25:08 That is perhaps the most retarded label I've ever seen for the American Revolution, especially when you consider that the empire had slavery for another half century.
smart dude Member	Wed Jul 03 20:51:54 Wait so the Betsy Ross flag is racist because it existed at the same time as slavery? I guess the moon is racist, and the Sun. And the Grand Canyon. Even the ADL doesn't consider it a hate symbol. This is all manufactured.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Wed Jul 03 21:06:03 I'll guess Trump brings a Betsy Ross flag to his 'celebrate me' 4th of July rally tomorrow as he loves to unify people for the record, I'm against the Nike decision, no reason to surrender symbols on the other hand, the damage is done, if they did change minds and start to sell them, wearers would be presumed to be a white supremacist by various people... and white supremacists would indeed all be buying
kargen Member	Wed Jul 03 21:20:06 "Former Texas congressman Beto O'Rourke also approved of Nike's decision, noting that "white nationalist groups" have "appropriated" the Betsy Ross flag." And when that happens we need to "appropriate" it back. Fly it or display it as you wish and when someone tells you it is racist tell them your displaying it has nothing to do with race. If they insist then a simple fuck off will suffice.
hood Member	Wed Jul 03 21:48:58 Where do you work again, rugian?
Dukhat Member	Thu Jul 04 00:05:45 An issue literally nobody cares about except fragile white snowflakes like Rugian. White Lives Matter has to be one of the saddest political group ever.
Daemon Member	Thu Jul 04 01:14:13 Rugian I can share your pain http://en....ermany_(1935%E2%80%931945).svg
Forwyn Member	Thu Jul 04 01:36:06 "nobody cares about" A massive corporation rolled back a product line that was already distributed and presidential candidates are chiming in. STFU
smart dude Member	Thu Jul 04 02:10:41 A "problem" for both sites of the aisle to get upset about. It's all the media's fault, obviously for creating this non-issue to begin with. But as Rugian said, the problem is that we have presidential candidates who are leveraging for their bullshit campaigns.
Im better then you 2012 UP Football Champ	Thu Jul 04 02:18:33 This story smells like a marketing ploy. It first appeared in the Wall Street Journal sourced anonymously. Kapernick didn't even release a statement and I heavily doubt they clear every new shoe with him.
Rugian Member	Thu Jul 04 07:19:34 Here's our racist shitbag president prominently flying the flag behind him: http://mob...sko/status/1146392864479469568 Democrats are completely off the rails at this point. What basic American symbol will they arbitrarily decide to turn on next?
Rugian Member	Thu Jul 04 07:25:02 Hood: In your mother's ass. Daemon: Dont you face arrest for posting that? Brave man.
