The correct answer to "Why the sticker?" is "Why the fascism?"

One time, I was smoking a cigarette in my car, outside of my house. A cop pulled up behind me and blasted their lights. They asked me a ton of questions, most of which I refused to answer. I gave them ID which had my FUCKING address, and they still said, "You ain't from around here are you?". Mother fucker, you don't even live in this zipcode. You are at MY address. It was a Pacific beach surfing sticker and a Bernie sticker. They also told me to take them off. They went off in a pout, and the deputy told me they were just training the newbie. To what, profile people?

This is an example of resistance as culture. It might be a small act but it demonstrates the point.

I think that's something that could work. Things like fashion to mess with facial recognition. Movies or tasks to mess with our algorithms. Distracting facsists with a flag. Culturally, capitalism feeds on the creativity of leftists type people and always has done. We can't feed it anti-capitalism because that just feeds it. So, we have to make fucking with the machine the culture itself and offer something they never can: warmth, community and authenticity.

Jfc god forbid you have a flag of another country. How dare you like anything about another country aside from America. Fucking fascists.

Italian Flags look identical to Mexican Flags from a distance.

Just putting this out there, for anyone who wants to experience Italian Discrimination firsthand.

I am definitely stealing 'white as a hotel towel' to refer to myself and other mayonaise-complexioned people, that's incredible, hahaha!

All fun and games until they throw her in a cage. I hate to break it to you, when ICE is kidnapping people, they aren't checking your documents first. They're just disappearing you to the back of the van. If they happen to get a few citizens too, well that's just collateral damage.

One can hope it would result in a massive lawsuit, public outrage, and change. My bet is that it doesn't even make headlines, Faux News slanders the woman for being an "immigrant sympathizer" and the Trump administration tries to strip her citizenship for aiding and abetting enemies of the state (you know Jesus who pays his taxes and picks fruit seasonally in Arizona).

Cute, and dangerous, to think the fascists wont put you on the bus anyway .

United States should change its name to "State"

I'm a white hotel towel Mexican

Always thought it was strange to mark "White, Hispanic" on everything because that was an option always growing up. Like you all really do need to know my skin color don't you.

If you didn't know my last name you'd never guess I wasn't "American"

Well shit, I'm gonna buy a whole 1000 pack of Mexican flag stickers and throw them on every car in every parking lot I see.

Use old flags of European countries and say you are a history buff.

Use flags of fictional countries and say that you are a fantasy buff.

So many opportunities.

Funny until they decide you are aiding 'illegals'.

I'm pretty sure that any of the psychos signing up to be ICE thigs would LOVE to have a Mexican flag sticker plastered on their car's back bumper. Pretty sure.

Better option: find a swasticar, and stick a flag on the back of it. Waste the time of the pig and the trumpster in a cybertruck

"Obnoxious creatures" fucking gold.

I'm not white and I often joke about putting an American flag in my front yard to avoid racist attacks

Actually such a good idea. I might not do it because I currently dont have any form of I.D. (Lost my birth cert, dont have a passport and just lost my DL) and I have gotten mistaken for Mexican a few too many times.

I can remember when everyone in mexico got really really outraged by the Texas law SB4, but now racial profiling is really common

That is absolutely disgusting. ICE is committing ethnic cleansing.
