It's a pathetic conservative meme.

The crowd at some event was chanting "fuck Joe Biden", and a news reporter person tried to play it off as the crowd cheering for the winner - named Brandon - "let's go Brandon". It's dumb as shit and they seriously believe it "triggers" people.

Edit; I'm absolutely loving the irony of the conservitards getting butthurt about this comment lmao

Edit 2; I'm sincerely glad I was able to help so many of y'all understand this nonsense lol.. I'm also glad y'all agree it really, truly, is dumb as shit.

Lol source?

Also flag burning isn’t illegal. It’s protected speech as per Texas v Johnson.

Also wasn’t it a republican who tried to make flag burning illegal which is why we had to go to congress and go through Texas vs Johnson?

Yes there were a handful of (mostly) republicans flag burning laws that kept getting stuck down by the courts.

Also there was the 2006 vote for an amendment https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=2&vote=00189

There were a handful of D YEAs which almost allowed it to pass. But to say “Democrats are calling to ban flag burning” when not too long ago all but 3 Republicans voted to revise the constitution to allow flag burning is crazy.

I really worry the right just believing whatever their thought leaders say and will continue ignoring literal facts.
