America's teachers union leaders pose with upside-down Ukraine flag in epic virtue-signal fail

American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten and Executive Vice President Evelyn DeJesus posed with a Ukrainian flag poster emblazoned with the words "We stand with Ukraine," and an AFL-CIO logo. The only problem is the flag was printed upside down. Ukraine's flag has blue on top, and yellow at the bottom, representing the sky and wheat. The country is known as Europe's bread basket. The flag symbolizes a blue sky over a field of wheat.

This was a major clout fail for the union heads, who represent some 12.5 million American educators. Many found it hard to believe that Weingarten, DeJesus, and the AFT itself could possibly be involved in the educations of millions of American school children when they couldn't even print a foreign flag for a country they allegedly "stand with" correctly.

The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) posted to the photo to their Twitter account, showing that at no step of the production process, from design through printing to posting, did anyone at the AFT take a look and realize they were making a literal false flag.

The teachers’ unions have done irreparable harm to our nation’s children.

Two colors.

That’s all.

They stood a 50/50 chance of getting it right just by guessing.

And they blew it.

But then, if you have a 50/50 chance of getting something right, you’ll be wrong 90% of the time.

Most teachers aren’t intelligent people.

An upside down flag indicates a sign of distress

There is a reason for the adage, "those who can't .... teach."

Totally incompetent in every arena of life.

Makes perfect sense. The NEA denies heaven and doesn’t know which way is up.
