Even setting aside the possibility that she couldn’t protest Jim Crow for some reason, what about Iraq? The Patriot Act? Not a big deal/not serious enough to protest?
Well, you see we were mad at the terrorists back then. There wasn’t time for nuanced discussion or fancy demonstrations. We had to go out and buy things or the terrorists would have won
We could even get more recent than that. What about Palestine? The US doesn’t need to send taxpayer money for the Zionist entity to keep committing atrocities there.
Given the sign’s contents though, whichever war her “late veteran husband” was fighting in wasn’t enough to protest either?
To be fair she is old enough that her husband might have fought the one justifiable conflict the US was ever involved in. But that also means he probably did warcrimes in Korea like my grandfather so yeah…
on another note, i’m looking forward to the US very soon losing its spot as the global cultural superpower, and the west having to watch schlock chinese war movies about the war in korea where they are the heroes and the americans the villains
The Palestine observation is the most egregious thing about the whole 50501 thing, eh? I guess it’s fine to go to these protests if there are no pro-Palestine ones in your area, but if there are pro-Palestine protests and you go to the 50501 ones then you’re a lost cause.

unless the husband was like ten years older than her, he likely did war crimes in korea
Fairly likely in the 40s
