When the Ukraine war kicked off there were Ukraine flags all over the place. All the lib houses with the “we believe in signs” had it up. Now I’m not surprised they aren’t flying Palestinian flags right now, but I haven’t seen a single one and I’m in “blue hole” part of the country. I would expect to see something more than the occasional pin or button. It pisses me off that people still have out their sunbleached Ukraine flags while there is a blantant genocide going on. Truly it reveals the liberal libidinal urge for permission.
Is there a better place to buy a Palestinian flag than amazon?
EDIT: I dont expect the same houses flying Ukrainian flags to fly Palestinian flags. I just expect some homes in my city to be flying a Palestinian flag. Its such a blue hole that theres actually a socialist presence. I know there’s people who support Palestine here. I’m not worried about a Zionist lynch mob.
As others have said, libs don’t support Palestine, but also I feel like the more common way to demonstrate solidarity is to wear a keffiyeh.
Also you won’t get accused of antisemitism for flying a Ukraine flag.

Ironic considering You Crane is run by banderites.
Because the ADL is a ridiculously outsizedly powerful lobby with data collecting and doxxing operations on dissidents and a misstep can end your ability to find gainful employment, possibly forever. Read up a bit on their pro-apartheid activities back in the day, it’s crazy.
Personally, I don’t have home insurance.
Is it just fear thats keeping us back? Again, I’m in a blue hole, its very likely that I might just break a seal. Here’s hoping.
pretty much. same reason i don’t fly a trans flag even though i think it’d be cute.
i am weak to fire and bullets
There’s trans flags all over here. Pretty normal for a business to put one In a window.
Honestly a lot of it probably has to do with young people not owning houses and a lot of renting situations banning you from displaying any kind of flag or sign, I think that’s standard in a lot of leases now, Palestinian support skews super young at least in North America so not surprised that older house owning libs aren’t taking a moral stand.

I’m familiar with both of these sites they are definitely options if you would prefer not to buy from a mega corpo
There is literally a whatsapp group of rich investors and CEOs and Israeli agents going around getting random people fired for supporting Palestine

Yeah but they’re targeting people who matter like journalists, professors, journalists, altheletes, etc.
You must keep an appropriate threat model if you’re gonna get paranoid about surveillance. Reactionary neighbors, local police, landlords; these are people who might take your politics personally. But to billionaires and such you’re just a statistic.
I’m sorry that’s not the case.
As the Israel-Hamas war began to heat up in late October, Courtney Carey, a Dublin-based employee of the Israeli website building company Wix, posted the Irish words “SAOIRSE DON PHALAISTIN” – “Freedom for Palestine” – on her LinkedIn page.
Within 24 hours of Carey’s LinkedIn post appearing, Alon Ozer, a Miami-based investor, took a screenshot of the post and shared it with a WhatsApp group of more than 300 like-minded investors, tech executives, activists, and at least one senior Israeli government official. Ozer took care to note that Carey worked for Wix.
Your example is someone posted free palestine on their LinkedIn page while working for an Israeli owned company.
I’m talking about hanging a Palestinian flag on my porch in a borderline socialist neighborhood. Keep your threat models sane and don’t spread paranoia. It keeps people from actually doing the good work.
