Honestly don’t remember who the original poster was, who shot the video theirselves. I screen-grabbed their video to share in another place and lost the attribution along the way.

Chicago O’Hare (ORD) is an incredibly important hub for Texas-based American Airlines.

Whether flying in or out, choose another airline as long as the Texas National Guard is occupying Chicago against our will.

Same for Southwest Air in and out of Midway (MDW).

Stand in solidarity with Chicago.

The Texas National Guard has arrived in the Chicago area.

While the president and his regime parade soldiers around like dogs, I am taking immediate action in my personal life to respond to Texas' invasion of my state, severing three longterm relationships with Texas-based companies. 1/

With thousands or millions standing in solidarity, true transformative solidarity? You bet your ass. If you care, you'll act. You have this power. What does your patriotism tell you to do, your religious belief, your conscience. 8/

If you think this is childish, or extreme, I ask you what are the things you can do to stop what's happening, this invasion of American cities by our own military. Does it make a difference? With one person, no. 7/
