Picture is my bookbag that I wore to the no kings day celebration in fort Walton Beach, Florida. There's little coverage of it so I thought it would worth blogging on the fediverse about it

I did it because protestor in LA were carrying the Palestine flag, also Palestine and Mexico share the same color with Palestine having black so visually it can look like your supporting Mexico.

Plus I only have the Palestine flag so it's either that or no flag and there's zero downsides to bringing the flag of heroes that die saving children from rubble. (It's interesting to think you're walking around and a building explodes and you have to rush to pull out any survivors, not as first responder but as an average human being)

Plus a guy came with a a flag with Trump's face on it and I accepted that and talked to the guy.

I have zero regrets and I love wearing that flag and I'm happy to see that flag in any context
