Official Propaganda for Caribbean Military Buildup Includes “Crusader Cross” The “Jerusalem cross” appeared prominently in Pentagon propaganda for boat strikes and the Venezuela military buildup.

The "Crusader Cross" has become popular on the right to symbolize the march of Christian civilization, with anti-Muslim roots that made it into something of a logo for the U.S. war on terror.

A young woman sits on a wooden bench with a large manilla pad, holding a piece of charcoal. She is looking down at a setup of flowing featuring lilies and roses.

BREAKING: 30 young people were just arrested after blocking an ICE detention facility near Alligator Alcatraz.

ICE is kidnapping our neighbors on behalf of fascist billionaires. It's time for every single American to stand up to their intimidation tactics. Let's shut it down.

Oh swell, let’s condemn socialism. How about condemning fascism and oligarchy. There was a time that I had hope for the future. It is rapidly being frittered away by the “system”.

Local businesses, not just “businessmen”. Just saying.

I'm somewhat weirded out by the fact that "no kings in america protest signs" is a thing on Amazon. Some of them are actually pretty cool... but buying No Kings signs from a billionaire's platform just seems odd.
