The GOP Twitter account tweeted, then deleted an image in celebration of U.S. Independence Day that appeared to erroneously feature the Liberian flag.
Aside from the gaffe, I really hate how Republican extremists have hijacked the American flag for their weird aganda. Time to take it back.
Remember folks, these people like to (falsely) portray themselves as the patriotic party.
And the general public just eats that shit up.
They’re just posers. It’s reminiscent of when the former guy told Liberty University students to open their bibles to “two Corinthians”.
They are far worse than posers - they are straight-up traitors.
And they’re very triggered the woke are fact-shaming them.
Fact-shaming. That phrase is freaking perfect. I’m stealing it.
fact-shaming is now in my vocab, thanks
Flying confederate flags and Trump flags all the time they forgot what the USA flag looks like

For anyone else that didn’t necessarily want to scroll through the article but was wondering how far off the flag is:
The new marketing grad running their twitter must be trolling them. I can’t think of any other reason and I don’t want to believe people are that dumb/lazy.
It’s a bit funny and all, but this is basically the definition of a non story.
I’m sure there were actual news today.
Pretty funny from a side who talks about how patriotic they are.
You say erroneously, I say dog whistle. Slaves were repatriated there. It’s a troll, and not the first time they’ve done this, see CPAC nazi symbol in 2021
Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by stupidity. They aren’t that smart and they are very stupid.
You should also never underestimate evil - that’s how they win.
I’m not underestimating evil. I’m estimating intelligence. And they aren’t that intelligent or crafty. Their evil is far more banal.

This is textbook underestimating evil, friend. Don’t confuse the stupid act they put on for their constituents with their actual intelligence.
These assholes are ivy league educated and have (successfully) shaped the republican party under them to engender the support of the dumbest among us and eliminate just about every trace of coherent thoughts. But just because that’s their base doesn’t mean the leadership is just as dumb.
Granted, you have real idiots like Ms Bowling Alley Flasher or I Can’t Believe it’s not Jewish Space Lasers, but a lot of the leadership is moral-less bottom feeders desperate for power and willing to sell away the country and our democracy for it.
Say what you will about the idiots running the republican party, but those fuckers got shit done. Here’s hoping the democratic party can take a page from their book and finally get their shit together, but I won’t hold my breath.
