        It is a false argument. Apples to oranges is a phrase used to identify a false argument.

          I was pointing to the fact you capitalized it, but thanks for being pedantic. 🤦🏼‍♂️

          edit: nice ninja edit after the fact.

            Accusing someone else of being pedantic after you complained about capitalization is hilarious.

    This is said like its some sort of privilege to stand for the national anthem and not just social pressure to.

    Joke’s on them. I wouldn’t stand for the anthem anyway. Anyone who declares loyalty to a country that doesn’t care about them is a moron.

    I don’t get it, this seems like a false equivalency to me.

      if this is propaganda, it’s kinda shit cause i have absolutely no clue what it’s even trying to say, or what kind of ideas it’s trying to push.

    What they are saying here is, all of us are victims of America’s racist past, whether or not your family was around when slavery was an issue. It’s just sort of a snarky way of saying that.
