Some people are so fragile. Fox News of course is saying feds have banned non US flags, of course lying to their viewers about what is actually happening.

They do this kind of thing to distract from their total lack of solutions to any real problems.

That's the only reason they do it. Continue the culture war over here so you don't see me doing nothing over here.

Exactly.

Conservatives around the world have figured out that you can win elections by focusing entirely on socially conservative wedge issues, then do whatever the hell you want once you're in power.

Biden's allegedly not a conservative though.

Maybe I'm confused because I'm not an American, but I have no idea what point you're trying to make.

Obviously, from the perspective of most Western democracies, he's very conservative, but in the context of American politics, he's not.

Pointless culture wars are all they have left because without those, some of their voters might calm down long enough to notice they haven't delivered on a single promise to make the lives of regular Americans better when they are in power for decades.
