Why aren't people flying Palestinian flags? (hexbear.net)

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.

There's a lot of them around me. I see kids walking to school wearing flags as capes.

That can't be in the US.

It is! Extenuating circumstances though (maybe I buried the lede), I live in a major city and live and work in an Arab neighborhood.

Ah like Minneapolis or Detroit. A local coffee shop let's people paint murals on its side wall and i just noticed its now a woman in the keffiyeh.

Think I know the one you're talking about actually, not gonna say where cause I don't wanna dox either of us, but I noticed it today too. Really happy to see the support. Also didn't love the black and gold mural from before.
