When the Ukraine war kicked off there were Ukraine flags all over the place. All the lib houses with the "we believe in signs" had it up. Now I'm not surprised they aren't flying Palestinian flags right now, but I haven't seen a single one and I'm in "blue hole" part of the country. I would expect to see something more than the occasional pin or button. It pisses me off that people still have out their sunbleached Ukraine flags while there is a blantant genocide going on. Truly it reveals the liberal libidinal urge for permission.

Is there a better place to buy a Palestinian flag than amazon?

EDIT: I dont expect the same houses flying Ukrainian flags to fly Palestinian flags. I just expect some homes in my city to be flying a Palestinian flag. Its such a blue hole that theres actually a socialist presence. I know there's people who support Palestine here. I'm not worried about a Zionist lynch mob.

Because while it’s good to fly them during a protest or everyday out and about, flying a Palestinian flag on your front porch will likely result in someone burning your house down or shooting at it.

It’s one thing to be attacked while you’re in a crowd of people or awake - you can defend yourself or have others help you or run etc. - but it’s another thing to be sleeping and waking up to your room in flames and collapsing

Thats gotta be deep in evangelical country. Not in a "we believe in..." sign country.

The "we believe in" people are both-sidesing it at best, with a ceasefire profile pic. A lot are just straight up supporting Israel
