Stop policing the flags.

If your takeaway from people being tear-gassed, brutalized, and arrested while trying to stop government sanctioned kidnappings is, “Ugh, they’re waving the wrong banner, they’re gonna make us look bad 🥺,” you are not on the side of justice. You’re a bystander critiquing resistance aesthetics while the boots are coming down.

People are scared. People are angry. People are uniting across backgrounds to stop a machine of violence. They’re uniting to stop literal fascism. This isn’t a social movement where they’re looking for new rights. They’re on the defensive to protect their existing rights from a movement who does not see them as human.

They do not need your brand guidelines.

They need solidarity. They need courage. They need you to pick a fucking side.

Honestly I wonder if maybe some of those comments are bots.
