Yes, I accounted for that, you ignorant fool… Try using reading comprehension this time:
Do you think Fox News is going to clarify that some brown guy waving a Mexican flag is actually a legal temp worker, or even US citizen? You seem to be completely and utterly ignorant as to how propaganda works…
Most people are idiots that will not pick through the BS. THAT is why you must avoid bad optics, because the VAST majority of people who don’t ALREADY agree with you will use every assumption given to them to continue disagreeing with you.
Are they wrong? Yes. Do they think they are wrong? Hell no! Only a fool like you would continue to feed their assinine assumptions.
Who said whitewashing was what I was asking for? I only mentioned the Mexican flag. Your understanding of optics seems to be rather jouvenile and black and white…
You’re saying protestors shouldn’t use Mexican symbols in their protest because it will be used as reactionary fodder for fascists. That’s the definition of whitewashing.
to alter (something) in a way that favors, features, or caters to white people
Nope. Nowhere did I say they shouldn’t use ANY Mexican symbol.
What I did say, is it would be much more powerful imagery to convince conservatives it’s wrong, if the cops are seen cracking down on someone waving a US flag.
Please, PLEASE stop being a reactionary and understand how messaging and subtext works.

You don’t combat racism by whitewashing your protests.
