Hey, uhh, so swastikas and nooses are now categorized as “potentially divisive” for the Coast Guard, not hate symbols. “Potentially divisive” to who? If you’re not a literal Nazi, it’s pretty damn divisive.
In the 1940s, America defeated fascism. We must do so again, for the sake of our neighbors.

Dear LGBTQ Allies,
Today we are again reminded why PRIDE isn't about rainbows and parades. It's about standing with the LGBTQ human beings and pushing back against the bigots and the bullies, no matter what it costs us.
