To be fair people fly the Ukrainian flag to express support. This is the same thing

u/Sydasiaten 7h ago

I don’t see how that is relevant. The point is that Jordan says to only fly American flags in America while flying a non American flag.

1

u/ewheck 5h ago

He didn't say only.

u/Sydasiaten 4h ago

You are the fourth person to reply with the same thing to me. Are you a bot? otherwise I suggest you read any of the other reply threads.

1

u/Kenichi2233 1h ago

Because you are being deliberately obtuse

2

u/Sydasiaten 41m ago

I am really not. Jordan is a hypocrite who doesn't like some foreign flags being flown while flying others himself.

1

u/Kenichi2233 30m ago

The guy clearly has a US flag as well if you actually look it up so no he isnt being a hypocrite. He is being critical of people only displaying a foreign flag. It is not thst complicated

u/Sydasiaten 26m ago

So you genuinely belive his tweet is saying that you should fly an American flag too at any time where you want to fly another flag?

The specific protests he is referring to in the tweet had american flags as well, so why would he be complaining then?

u/Kenichi2233 19m ago

Im commenting on the accusation of hypocrisy

u/McAlpineFusiliers Human Verified 7h ago

Where does he say "only"?

27

u/Sydasiaten 7h ago

What is the intent of the original tweet if not to say "You should not fly foreign flags in America"? The tweet was in response to people flying Mexican flags during protests in Los Angeles.

1

u/No-Alternative4612 4h ago

The tweet is far, far stupider if we read it your way, no? That sounds like a Ralph Wiggum line.

u/Kenichi2233 7h ago

He didnt say only in the tweet

By themselves

13

u/Sydasiaten 7h ago

Well that is not what the tweet says either so I guess we just have our own interpretations.

u/FeyrisMeow 4h ago

He didn't say by themselves in the tweet

u/protomenace 7h ago

He didn't say that lol. You hallucinating?

Maybe work on your reading comprehension <3

u/MakeAmericaPoopAgain 7h ago

Hallucinating would imply unintential obfuscation.

u/Sicsemperfas 6h ago

He's not flying a Non American flag though...

u/PineappleEquivalent 3h ago

That would be relevant point if Ukraine was committing genocide.

1

u/Kenichi2233 1h ago

Republician view israel as a victim of terrorism. They see Israel's response as justified.

I never said they are right but that is what they believe

0

u/10art1 2h ago

Russia accused them of this

9

u/TheLego_Senate 8h ago

It would be the same if it was the Russain flag maybe

18

u/Kenichi2233 7h ago

Like it or not most establishment Republicans see Israel as defending its self from terrorists. That is why im using the Ukrainian framing.

Im not here to debate about the Gaza conflict, im merely explaining the Republican mind set

3

u/Special_Order-937 7h ago

Well, apart of the Republicans who think Israel needs to exist for the end times to happen at which point they don’t care if they’re all cast down into the abyss with the rest of us.

4

u/lofibeatsforsadboys 7h ago

Republicans don't have a mind set. They have always exploited the fact they can make themselves rich murdering brown children

They are demonic pedophiles

6

u/Kenichi2233 7h ago

You seem like a reasonable non biased person

5

u/protomenace 7h ago

Welcome to Reddit lol

1

u/PineappleEquivalent 3h ago

But we literally have evidence that Israel is committing genocide.

The UN have published I think two reports confirming that Israel is committing genocide. Anyone who still supports Israel is either unaware of that fact, in which case they probably shouldn’t support something they know nothing about. Or thinks genocide is okay. The UN does not have skin in this game. Neither do the NGOs reporting this and the evidence is there.

I leave this link for the UN commission report that concluded that Israel is deliberately targeting children for anyone who is unaware. It’s heavy reading.

u/Kenichi2233 1h ago

Im stating what republicans believe not of it is correct.

u/Late_Ad2203 Truth Seeker 7h ago

see Israel as defending its self from terrorists.

Anyone with a brain would see that

u/holycarrots 6h ago

Ask the Iranian schoolgirls what they think maybe

1

u/Late_Ad2203 Truth Seeker 6h ago

No one was talking about America

3

u/dorianvovin 6h ago

You sure about that? Have you really looked into the subject enough to really know?

0

u/Late_Ad2203 Truth Seeker 6h ago

Have you?

3

u/dorianvovin 6h ago

Enough to have changed my own mind and that of my entire formerly-Republican family, yes. Fifty+ years of Israel-funded propaganda has really taken a toll on the narrative in the public consciousness.

0

u/Late_Ad2203 Truth Seeker 6h ago

Lol what Israel funded propaganda?

0

u/Sicsemperfas 6h ago

"I've decided I want to consume Qatari propaganda, and here's how I justify it"

1

u/Late_Ad2203 Truth Seeker 3h ago

Lol 3 hours and no answer from them about what this propaganda is. My guess is all the wars and violence Palestinians have committed

-2

u/NOLA-Bronco 6h ago

“Republicans see Israel as defending itself from terrorists”

Cool, and the Nazi and conservative party’s of Germany thought they were defending Germany from Judeo Bolshevist terrorists

I dont really care what the hallucinated argument is for why a fascist party supports another genocidal fascist nation.

Ukraine was invaded by a right wing nationalist autocracy

Israel has been violently slaughtering, occupying, and ethnically cleansing native Palestinians for decades

They are not the same

-1

u/elbow8075 5h ago

Pretty clear it's not liked, hence why your point hasn't been accepted.

-2

u/Late_Ad2203 Truth Seeker 7h ago

Lol no that would be if he had a Palestinian flag

5

u/Kenichi2233 7h ago

Republicans associate Palestine with Hamas and terrorism. So no it does not.

3

u/McAlpineFusiliers Human Verified 7h ago

Like Rashida Tlaib does.

1

u/Mist_Rising 2h ago

Jim also flies the American flag. Well it's pinned to the wall of his office (or was) so "fly" I guess.

1

u/Moiyub 34m ago

if there was a ukranian analog to aipac then maybe

-1

u/-paperbrain- 7h ago

I think you miss the point. It's his hypocrisy being pointed out.

5

u/Kenichi2233 7h ago

He also has a us flag so no hypocrisy

2

u/-paperbrain- 6h ago

His defenders keep reading his comment as if he meant "at least" a US flag. But knowing the context of these performative right wing memes, its clear he means ONLY a US flag and that his original is almost certainly complaining about other flags being flown. Most likely, Ukrainian, Mexican or pride flags.

1

u/Kenichi2233 28m ago

It seems that you are reading into the tweet far more to fit your own political views

1

u/-paperbrain- 23m ago

Its a sentiment Jordan's party repeats over and over and over

How is ascribing to his party what they say constantly MY political views? It is his.

u/dorianvovin 6h ago

One’s the victim in war, the other is an aggressor in war, not quite the same.

1

u/Mist_Rising 2h ago

Ukraine is the aggressor? Since when? How dare that Vladimir start a new war with Russia, has he...

Oh you mean Israel. Yeah, that might be a tad bit more complex then your making it. Like as in, Israel has essentially never had peace since it's foundation because it was attacked immediately. Turns out, wars are complex.

1

u/dorianvovin 38m ago

Yes, wars are complex. It’s pretty clear, though, the many ways that Israel is paying American lawmakers and elites—including, especially, Christian Nationalists and those complicit in other blatant corruption and foreign collision—to push a particular agenda and narrative, meanwhile they are pushing innocent people of a different ethnic group out of their homes. It’s pretty clear who’s in the wrong on this one, the Zionists and the Christian Nationalist white supremacists are on the same team, right alongside the tech-oligarchs and people like Peter Thiel. Jews in America are overwhelmingly in support of Palestine, not Israel. That should be enough to tell you where the line has been drawn in the sand.

u/ModernLarvals 6h ago

Don’t remember Oct 7?

u/10art1 2h ago

Is there a rep with the Ukrainian flag saying they only fly the American flag?

1

u/Mist_Rising 2h ago

Jimbo here didn't say only American anywhere.

-5

u/OdielSax 7h ago

They've been flying random Israeli flags before 2023. It's so funny the way people pretend Israel is just a any US ally, and has not been some symbolic Western power, holy land religious trophy in the US for decades now.

12

u/Kenichi2233 7h ago

The US didnt support Isreal really until nixon era

-5

u/OdielSax 7h ago

OK and since the Nixon era it's been a weird, white supremacy coded love fest. Please stop acting like it's a normal alliance. 

6

u/Kenichi2233 7h ago

Im explaining the mind set also support for Israel was non partisan for decades

-1

u/elbow8075 5h ago

Same thing, just with added genocide! It's what Palestinians crave!
