Students Confused To See "CONTROVERSIAL" American Flag Flown By Cuban Protesters
Campus Reform via YouTube ^

Posted on 07/18/2021 4:37:16 AM PDT by bryan999

Cuban protestors have been seen flying the American flag as a symbol of freedom and democracy over the past couple of days. But do young Americans think the flag represents the same thing?

Campus Reform reporter Ophelie Jacobson talked with students in front of the United States Capitol about the American flag and what it means to them.

“Shame,” one student said. “I felt like if I had the American flag and was associated with the American identity, I would be associated with a lot of bigotry, racism and sexism.”

Another student said, “It’s a symbol of hurt.”

These young idiots need to go and live in Cuba among the common folk for a year and see how they like it then.

That’s what the Left has been working towards for decades. Can we swap some of these kids for the Cuban protestors? A straight up one to one trade.

I want to brutalize those who have poisoned our youth and turned them into simpering dolts. I’m thinking blowtorch and power drill...

These indoctrinated fools would be crying for their mommas and looking for safe spaces in short order if they had to spend even a short time in places where their beloved Marxism predominates.

My thoughts run the same way. I put these people in the same category as pedophiles. Harm a child and no judge and jury is really necessary, just turn the pos over to the parents and grandparents.

A good investigative reporter would search for the reason that these teens are unpatriotic. Why do they think that way? Where did they learn to think that way? Who are their mentors?

When we see that the majority of black lives matter protestors are actually white one can only conclude that we have some very dangerous educators corrupting young minds in our schools.

“...we have some very dangerous educators corrupting young minds in our schools.”

For many decades.

Teachers took in and grew the NEA to what it is today — huge and cultural Marxist.
(Gimmedat raise, days off and gold health insurance.)

Teachers stood silent when God was taken out of pubic schools. And went along.
(Gimmedat raise, days off and gold health insurance.)

Teachers allowed the NEA to turn leftist, feminist, queer and now CRT pushers. And went along.
(Gimmedat raise, days off and gold health insurance.)

Teachers’ union dues and NEA support leftist Democrat and their policies. And went along.
(Gimmedat raise, days off and gold health insurance.)

Teachers’ unions join with other unions to push votes for D’rats and union-preferred school board members. And went along.
(Gimmedat raise, days off and gold health insurance.)

Teachers’ role in swinging America left is undeniable and indefensible. And it should be punishable.

Boy are we in trouble. What spoiled, privileged kids. Their ignorance may lead to the circumstances where they find out how free the US is.....after they lose it.

Well, whether we like it or not, the flag also flies for these ignorant snowflakes. So I guess it also represents stupidity.

Maybe the students are facing “a teachable moment”. God knows they aren’t learning the truth in school/college. Real-world events can be powerful when seen with their own eyes.

We’re going to need to start posting (Not The Bee) warnings on these thread headlines.
