FBI Labels Anti-Fascists and Anti-Racists as Violent Extremists - UNICORN RIOT

A recently released document from the FBI indicates anti-fascists are as violent as those who would overthrow the U.S. government

A recently released Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) document titled “Domestic Terrorism Symbols Guide”* links common protest symbols to “terrorism” — another marker in a common theme of conflating militant protest for social justice with deadly terrorist violence within the United States. Groups like the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the Brennan Center have raised warnings about such documents, citing inadequate protections for people’s constitutional rights.

    However, it has also been hijacked for different causes.

    Another example is an American flag off the back of a pickup truck, usually a sign that the driver is a bigoted douchebag

      Part of why I like redesigning the US flag, I feel like the left needs their own banner that can read patriotic while still sending a strong message.

      Latest direction I’ve gone has been switching the stars and stripes to represent the 7 original articles of the constitution and the 27 amendments that have since passed.

      The old flag represents America’s growth via manifest destiny, its growth as an empire via conquest, while this represents America’s growth as a democracy via reform and the expansion of rights.

      For reference:

        IMO any redesign will carry the same manifest destiny, imperialism/douchebag energy as the existing one.
