I suppose it all depends whose ox is being gored...

World Respect for U.S. Drops Sharply Under Trump: Poll[...]

Who gives a shit what your "world" opinion is? [...]

Ah, you think "the world opinion" is important. [...]

If you're asking us to comment on what it means to those you posted pictures of, my take is that the protestors are thinking strategically when they hoist the American Flag in hopes that it will solicit support for their cause, human rights and to put them in a global spotlight for protection.

Sadly it has not.........we are struggling ourselves these days with what we want our role to be regarding human rights and global protection. Our focus under this Administration is purely internal with American's first. Not to say that is a bad thing but we shouldn't pretend that it won't have crippling affects globally.

It means they want Trump's help with their protest. That's it.

The chinese Democrats will burn those flags and make the Hong Kong people pay for their resistance.

EXACTLY! They see the US as a beacon of hope. We are a nation that the world looks at as someone who helps other nations fight against tyrants. Our reputation is great!

American Democrats see protesters sporting American flags and assume they are evil lazy racist that need to have their living standards brought down.

I will make it simple

Democrats are rooting for China. They have more in common with Chinese communist then they do freedom loving Americans.

Democrats do stupid shite but being anti American isn't one of them. I disagree with your point but I respect that it's how you feel.

Those Hong Kong protesters aren't calling for more exploitation and acquisition, are they?

"Capitalists seek to maximize profits and reduce the cost of labor. This sums up capitalism at its core.

"It is defined by these immutable objectives.

"It is not about democracy.

"It is not, as has been claimed, about wealth creation for the working class. It has nothing to do with freedom.

"Those capitalists, especially in corporations, who are not able to increase profits and decrease the cost of labor, through layoffs, cutting wages, destroying unions, offshoring, outsourcing or automating jobs, are replaced.

"Personal ethics are irrelevant.

"Capitalists are about acquisition and exploitation."

The Capitalists Are Afraid

 

[Old Man Grumbles]

They may be shooting themselves in the foot. After all. isn't it being shoved down our throats the the U.S. flag is racist? Ranks right up there with the Confederate battle flag. They should also be careful of the hand signs they make or words they say.

Racism

Tyranny

Genocide...

Is what Cortez and her followers would say only when a Republican is in office...

When a Democrat is in Office:

Freedom

Honor

Glory...

( You think I am trolling but that is how Progressives think )

Democrats do stupid shite but being anti American isn't one of them.

There is only one party that has members who burn the American flag and show disrespect to it, and that is the leftist wing of the Dimocratic PArty.

Wake up, dude.

I'm a dudette....... Let's not kid ourselves, one party is not better than the other. They both have their ridiculous positions on issues.

That may have been true 20 years ago, but today it is not. The Democrats have sold out to global socialist and if you think they have America's best interests at heart you have no clue about anything.

Democrats go to Iran and lead "death to America" chants.

I am not as oblivious to the issues as you seem to think. I'm able to see the good and bad in both parties whereas you only seem capable of attacking the other side. That's a weakness and a flaw, imo.

Since we clearly are not going to agree on this issue maybe you should worry about what you know and not focus on what you think I don't know.
