The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika — an emblem of fascism and white supremacy inextricably linked to the murder of millions of Jews and the deaths of more than 400,000 U.S. troops who died fighting in World War II — as a hate symbol, according to a new policy that takes effect next month.
Instead, the Coast Guard will classify the Nazi-era insignia as “potentially divisive” under its new guidelines. The new policy, set to take effect Dec. 15, similarly downgrades the definition of nooses and the Confederate flag, though display of the latter remains banned, according to documents reviewed by The Washington Post.
You’re talking about Americans here… The current state of america is a mirror reflection of its majority of people.
The majority of people are just a reflection of the history and current reality of USA tho.
An evil system will never be fixed by blaming its victims.
The majority of Americans aren’t conservatives. Less than 1/3 of adults voted for trump. That’s not a majority in any kind of math.
Yes, we live in a fake democracy founded by racist enslavers in order to violently enforce the disgusting privilege of a tiny tiny few.
No, but a majority either supports it or doesn’t care enough to even vote against it. Trump won the popular vote
There’s no realistic option for “voting against” fascism.
Trump won the unpopular vote with like 20% of citizens. The other fash party got even less. Evil, broken system.
So where are those people that are vastly outnumbering the nazis?
Hiding out from the nazis who have the state, the guns, etc. Trying to resist where we can. Like we’ve been doing for 400+ years despite overwhelming violence…
They’re probably out “not being political” and are ignorant to most curent events.
“If 10 people are sitting at a table being civil to 1 nazi, there are 11 nazis at the table.” or however the quote goes
Depends on the state mate. Us Californians don’t accept this garbage.
At least 6 million of you did, though.
And? There’s 40 million of us, and feel free to look at the distribution map for the 2024 election if you’d like to know which rural areas decided to vote for republicans.
