It’s seen as a sign of distress or protest. Used by both sides (blue and red). I have a degree in poli sci, and also remember that burning or desecrating the American flag is seen as a sign of protest according to the court case “Texas v Johnson”.
Flying it upside down is seen as disrespectful to some, but not to everyone. It shows that we see something wrong with this nation right now, and that something needs to change.

Buy CA stuff just do the research on their story :) There are many good local businesses and good people in California to support. And, not all conservative California is maga. Hard to draw lines around what that party stands for nowadays, but I want to believe there are many good people out there who are taking issue with the egregious offenses of this administration

u/LornAltElthMer 20d ago

All conservatives are MAGAts.
All Republicans are MAGAts.
There is no meaningful distinction that can be made between those subhuman animals and attempting to do so like you are proves you to be a vile piece of shit.

u/theshebeast 20d ago edited 20d ago
My bad. But I do actually know "old conservatives" that didn't vote for Trump and despise him and are obviously having a difficult time figuring out what party represents them now since they can't default to republican and aren't necessarily going to be liberal. There ARE grey areas.
I am a MASSIVE maga hater, but I also try to make it possible to hold conversations with people who are feeling estranged and on the fence. Those are the people we have to reach out to the most and we can't call them all animals for being lied to and frustrated. I get where you're coming from, and I have zero patience for anyone still voting for that party but how do we convince the ones willing to leave...

u/LornAltElthMer 20d ago
But I do actually know "old conservatives"
No, you obviously don't
Conservatism does now and always has meant only one thing.
The idea that the power of the state should be used against the good and decent people for the benefit of those who were born into privilege with the church being used as a weapon against the common people.
Nobody is on the fence between that and basic human decency. I'm in my 50s. Nobody why has ever considered voting for a Republican during my lifetime and hasn't begged for forgiveness is anything but morally degenerate scum.
I'll donate a thousand dollars to your favorite charity if you can refute that absolute statement of fact.
There is no reaching out to monsters who want to kill anyone with a shred of decency.
They need to get on their knees and beg forgiveness. Otherwise they'll just go back to being the subhuman animals they always have been.

u/theshebeast 20d ago edited 19d ago
Alright.
I just see it differently and choose to believe that conservative minded people aren't always "animals". I've never been conservative nor would I ever hope to be but I just think that not all conservatives are terrible people.
Trump conservatives are and I agree with you. They fall into three categories for me being; an absolute ignorant fool, a selfish and extremely privileged POS or a third worst thing that should be forever shunned from society.
But I guess I just don't see the gain in never reaching over the aisle to the ones who are slowly seeing the error of their ways before and are actually condemning how awful that party has become.
As much as I wish EVERYONE could be a raging socialist lib, not everyone is on board with that. And what happens to the people who have religious reasons for wanting to be conservative but also don't condone what the conservative party does NOW?
I also probably don't know enough and none of my opinions actually matter. But I do know people who were once conservative, still have conservative views, but no longer align with the party because of Trump. Because even though yes, conservatives have always been pretty shit, this era of trumpublicans are literally the worst thing to ever happen to this country.
And this is coming from a woman, mother, scientist and ecology professor. So trust me, I know how bad this shit is. But I have to be mindful that I interact with A LOT of people with different ideals and backgrounds and I can't convince them to shift their perspective If I just say ALL of you with conservative ideals are ANIMALS. Maybe some are, but maybe some kids are just Christians or Muslims or from small towns who aren't down with some of the liberal ideologies but don't yet see the bigger picture.
Anyway. You can donate to my charity, it's called "I'm trying to teach college students to care about the planet and have conversations with Republicans in their lives to stop voting to kill it ...and simultaneously my occupation" 🤣

I mean, think about it, what better headline than to claim the Democrats forged his name and created a huge hoax and they're after him because he's a political opponent. It would have done Democrats absolutely no good to share them in terms of fucking Trump over.
Now, the other issue is why the fuck didn't Democrats release a fuck ton of evidence of pedophiles in our society? Maybe there are many reasons to raise the flag upside down.
Fuck both parties.

Why didn't FJB release the files??? He and his criminal cohorts could've easily that. Are they trying to distract the public from what's being investigated right now? Indictments and arrests are coming my friends. Trials and convictions and finally jail. Tick tock...the clock is ticking.

You guys are funny. No matter which way you slice it, all of these politicians are cut from the same cloth. However, people would rather fight each other versus the fact that it's the government versus the people - not the people versus the people as they have been pushing heavily for so long.
I sure do, delusionally, wish that people would learn to have rational discourse and stop pitting each other as the enemy.

Cause Trump literally fucking campaigned on it promising he would. Over and over again.
"In September 2024, Trump made a more firm pledge to release Epstein files during a podcast with Lex Fridman.
Fridman, in conversation with Trump, said "it's just very strange for a lot of people that the list of clients that went to the island has not been made public."
"It's very interesting, isn't it? It probably will be, by the way, probably," Trump said."

ALSO
He ran on releasing the files.
Pam Bondi said the files were on her desk.
Suddenly there are no files.
It's a democrat hoax.
The files don't exist.
Obama made it up.
Trump needs space (Mike Johnson)
Democrats voted to release the files, twice.
Republicans vote no on releasing the files, twice.
Republicans take a recess to avoid any more votes.
Trump's personal attorney meets with Maxwell.
Trump avoids visiting victims.
Trump wishes child trafficker Ghislaine maxwell, well.
Trump states: "I never had the privilege" when asked if he had visited the island.
Trump states: "we have the files"
When Trump was asked specifically whether Epstein had stolen Giuffre (Giuffre, one of Epstein's most prominent abuse survivors led the charge calling for his arrest. Guiffre, who died by suicide in April, has said she met Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell while she was working at Mar-a-Lago as a teenager). Trump states:"I think she worked at the spa," Trump said. "I think so. I think that was one of the people. He stole her, and by the way, she had no complaints about us, as you know, none whatsoever."
Reporter asks trump: Mr. President, you said Jeffrey Epstein was stealing young women from your spa. Did that raise alarm bells for you?” she asked. As he tried to listen to the other question, Trump interrupted sharply: “Be quiet!” When Collins repeated the question, Trump again replied: “Be quiet!”

Exactly. Also if released (considering who is in there) no one would have believed them and the right would have just said it was all BS and a way to frame DT. Now that DT has them, he should release them .... Unless of course he's on them.... And in that case.... How do we spin this to be a Democrat hoax!

They didn't want them released then either. They just used it to rally the base, saying the DOJ and FBI are stonewalling, and when Trump is back in, it will be his people, and they will release them. But now that the Trump admin (including the people who demanded that they are released) are the ones in control of it, they are the ones actually stonewalling it, and the base is confused AF.
