Let them use the Confederate flag. It seems to be an important part of their identity.

Have you been to a single protest? Because American flags are everywhere – at HANDS OFF, NO KINGS, ICE OUT and every tiny action in between.

Yes. bsky.app/profile/recl...

Isn't MAGA Dominionist Theofascism just another far-right Christian ldeology like in Hitler's Germany and Mussolini's Italy???

100%%%

We cannot forget how Jan6ers used flagpoles to assault Capitol Police Officers. US Flags, trump flags, don't tread on me flags (oh the irony!) & the confederate flags waved as weapons to destroy the essence of our democracy.

Never happen, were talking 50 yrs of spitting on it, treading on it, setting fire to it. Now you expect Lefty's to embrace it lol 😂 They'd burst into flames.

Let them keep their confederate flags.

I agree. At the Ice Out for Good protest, mouthbreather passerby by was fantastically bothered by us flying the American flag.

The mere sight of our flag and hearing the national anthem used to bring pride and tears to my eyes, now, not so much.

#RESIST

I'd also be totally fine with setting them on fire to be fair

To the GOP & MAGA morons flying your American flags & stickers & hats it doesn’t make you patriotic as you all support an authoritarian dictator who denies our Constitution, attacks our people & cities, threatens allies & is a raging lunatic & sexual predator. You all helped create the problem!

Yep there it is…look who is walking on the flag!

I disagree. Flaggs are "things" . Embracing "things" can make it more difficult to make good decisions. A flag is often a symbol, however it can mean something completely different to someone else. Embracing principles and sayings are much more rewarding.

Good idea

I put my flag out every morning at sunrise 🌅 and bring it in every evening at sunset. Every day.

Mine will fly upside down until this regime is gone.

unfortunately, using it to "oppose" what they're selling only makes one seem in "support" of what is being done in its name... it's heartbreaking what's happening both here and abroad 💔 jm2¢

This exactly

You’re right. MAGAtypes manage to co-opt the flag, “patriot”, and anything else American, and they re-brand it as Republican/MAGA.

......... sadly, T-Rex-Kiddie Fucker has soiled it so badly we may yet need a new one. Where is that girl Betsy these days...........

I’ve been afraid to fly the flag for fear people will think I’m MAGA.

I see the American flag as akin to the Nazi flag these days.

Yes! We the people means ALL the people. bsky.app/profile/recl...

It doesn’t tho. My stomach churns every time I see the flag

Some. Still need more people bringing flags. bsky.app/profile/recl...

Many of us out there are. However, mine flies upside down until/ if we are righted it will then fly properly.

The American flag is a symbol of oppression and exploitation in wast parts of the world. You will not be able to wash it off. It didn’t just start January 2025. Maybe ask you black American friends what they think of your flag and what it stands for. Also, flag shagging is more of a far right hobby

Thank you. And I agree.

Join it. Help reclaim it. bsky.app/profile/recl...

You can help #ReclaimOurFlag Even in small ways. bsky.app/profile/recl...

I agree!!!

Hung mine proudly this weekend!

You're pursuing American ideals, the GOP pursues American reality and has the Supreme court on its side.

True. We keep the US flag. They are more than happy to switch to a flag with trump or a snake or anything else on it. Just like the Confederates did. They have no loyalty to the US flag or the ideas/values it stands for.

Anyone else think it really really fitting that the pepper spray ICE uses is almost the same shade of orange that King Cankles wears?

Love this

I hate to say, but I stopped flying my flag early last spring because of the lawlessness of the Trump administration. I won't fly it again until they are all gone. I live in a Red State. If you fly a flag, everyone assumes you are MAGA.

Funny. I never saw a conservative burn ab American flag.🤷‍♀️

I think the “Don’t tread on me” flag should be retaken too!

Campaign for Liberty Civil War 2.0 Constitutional Convention 2026 Don’t Tread on Me Don’t Tread on Minnesota Embrace 1776 Embrace 2026 Embrace The Revolution Fight, Fight, Fight Freedom Fighters Guardians of Independence Honor Guards Lady Liberty Moms For A1/A2 Dads For A1/A2 WH-Warriors A2-4-A1

I usually carry the flag (rightside up) to protests, but after Venezuela I've switched to a FUCK ICE tshirt for now.

So recode / load the flag with new and old references of decency, values, common sense, antifacism and whatever needs to be communicated to stand up against the ideas (and references) of MAGAmerica. Or simply inverse a Kid Rock music video.

Well-said. Thanks. We’re engaging in helping people engage in that activism. #ReclaimOurFlag bsky.app/profile/recl...

Keep an open mind. You can help redefine the flag. There’s a battle going on right now. bsky.app/profile/recl...

The one on my house is upside down. This country is in distress.

We are slowly taking it back!

Yes but, upside down signaling distress.

I disagree. It is forever tainted with Hatred and is the new Nazi flag as far as I am concerned and we need a different flag to convey what we thought the American idea was but obviously never was, Inclusivity.The strength of our country was built by immigrants and we let the rich tell us otherwise.

#Trump #Russia #Greenland The Great American Twat breaking up the world in pursuit of minerals and oil. Fuck consequences. USA, Russia’s bedfellow. Shithead.

America shows its true colors to its own and this is the reaction as it affects all now not just the minority

Brilliant. MAGA seems to have co-opted our flag as an anti-lib symbol. Protestors need to use our flag to show what America stands for, what democracy means, how patriotic supporting the constitution is! It’s a symbol the right cannot attack.

Yes!

Excellent. bsky.app/profile/recl...

Ditto for the cross. No Republican is a real Christian.

We should also reclaim and embrace the Gadsden Flag

Exactly right. It does. We’ve seen it. So have civil rights leaders. bsky.app/profile/recl...

The flag should represent (not substitute for) our founding ideals. It has been tarnished over the years by empty headed patriotism capped by the BLOTUS hug when what we should be embracing the constitution as a resistance to fascism. It also would help if Congress did their f'in job.

A+ reclaiming our flag. bsky.app/profile/recl...

If we rise up against the imbecile, then maybe that’s what we do to differentiate ourselves from the evil. However, until then, it’s still our country, and our flag. The flag preoccupation here is a bit strange to outsiders but it has a lot of meaning to Americans.

Great. Keep it up. You are helping reclaim it. 💪 bsky.app/profile/recl...

I'm in Minnesota and flying my Minnesota flag. Fk the US government.

Racist fascist Nazi ideology was built on domination—racial “purity” lies, scapegoating, crushed rights, and violence treated as virtue. It spread when people shrugged it off. Calling out these patterns isn’t optional; it’s how we keep that sickness from rising again.

Yes! bsky.app/profile/recl...

Been saying this for years, and glad that leftist protestors are now out there doing it. It's both a symbol and a shield. Those with a shred of patriotism and decency won't attack someone waving the American flag, and even the traitorous scum know it's terrible optics. Wave the stars and bars!

Yes! 💯 @shimanti.bsky.social Our 🇺🇸 is the most powerful symbol of hearts and minds We must *INTENTIONALLY* #ReclaimOurFlag from Trump & MAGA Protest is patriotic: Bring 🇺🇸 to protests Bring extras Form a flag corps Fly an American flag 🇺🇸 as you fight American fascism. www.reclaimourflag.org

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 Rise Up Stronger Together No Kings Every Day #ProtestsEveryday #HandsOff

We need Jimi Hendrix at a moment like this.

I would be careful maga has the flag all over their house and yard pretending to be patriots hopefully you won’t be mistaking for a maga trump traitor

Agree! And stop thinking it’s ok to deface our flag with any other images or colors, no matter how much those may be worthy causes.

Used to be 🇺🇸 had a negative connotation for a while. Then I noticed it had come into its own and became a symbol of what it was intended. No more dopy divisive stuff. Then it became tangled in Vulgarian’s sophomoric Red ‘n Blue garbage. I hope ‘n think we got that outta our system. Ugh.

We make a point in our local demos to always display the flag. We reclaimed it on Jan 20 last year.

GOP is the trump cartel.

In uk im afraid our flag has long been usurped by the far right, and currently there is a campaign to fly it under the guise of patriotism. Not done supportively though: an aggressive tribal challenge to others. great idea to embrace your flag now as symbol of usa liberty and justice, and protect it

Of course in my window I have a 20 inch by 30 inch poster this message changes and it's all clean words because the neighborhood children but it's enough to Rattle a cage

I bought a 3x5 Super Deluxe embroidery heavy nylon I got it at a TV shopping channel of quality Goods. There's a difference in raising the flag with reverence and raising the flag in anger and Hate. It is near my front door and it reminds me everyday of what I could possibly lose.

We should embrace our national bird as well

I've always embraced the American flag. Just like I've always embraced my Christianity. I'm not letting the phonies who use the American flag or who use Christianity to justify their evil.

...has already rebranded it as.

Yes! This is excellent. bsky.app/profile/recl...

❤️👏

Even the Democrat words are stolen and fed back to MAGA as Trump words. His regime of future “Felons” immediately spins our words into their words. He showed that in a video taken after the Harris speech over a year ago. Cheating, stealing and lying… Never normal behavior!

That sounds so fuckin retarded...

Flood the streets with Old Glory

AGREED! We use it widely at each bridge brigade and protest.

Once symbols become appropriated and used for hate, it is difficult to reclaim them. The swastika was a symbol for thousands of years before Hitler appropriated it. It ain’t coming back.

I'd bet every dollar I have that Trump has no idea what the stars and stripes on the flag actually represent... well, I'll give him the stars--he may know what they represent, but I'll bet he couldn't name the 50 states if his life depended on it.

I agree but also don’t worship gravest images.

I have a small flag I bring to every protest along with my sign. We are the real patriots. They are a mindless cult backing a corrupt moron. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Not sure about that, it's been compromised, I'm pretty sure America needs a re-write

We can't. The flag is an icon of the state. An allegiance to the state is Nationalism. An allegiance to the country is a Republic. The country is us people and this land. We are not supposed to pledge allegiance to a flag, but to each other. open.substack.com/pub/mrnobody...

Exactly

I wrote on my flag the names of all the veterans I know that have passed. I added “with liberty and justice for all”! I’m thinking of adding “by any means necessary”!

Exactly.

I've said this in another post. While I fully embrace the idea to do so, where I live could get my house firebombed. There is one flying right next door to a trump flag right next door.
