In this bold and unapologetic episode, we tackle one of the most contested concepts in American politics: patriotism. What does it mean to be a patriot in a nation built on contradictions? Who gets to claim the flag, and who has been excluded from that narrative?
✝️The weaponization of patriotism by white Christian nationalists
✊🏾Black Americans as the most patriotic people in history—from Harriet Tubman to MLK
🚩Symbols of patriotism: flags, pledges, and who they were really designed for
🛞The difference between restoration and revolution
👑Palestine, Gaza, and the imperial playbook coming home💣What comes after this system collapses?
👷🏾♀️Season 2 vision: moving from resistance to rebuilding
Bottom Line: Patriotism isn't about flags or pledges—it's about fighting for the humanity and dignity of all people. The real patriots have always been those demanding this country live up to its stated ideals, not those defending its worst instincts.
