Muslims Don't Like the Flag

Background Information
Found on my Facebook, this meme says, "Liberals are saying the American flag is offensive to Muslims. Share if you don't give a damn." It seems to tell Conservatives that resenting Muslims isn’t bigotry because liberals “agree“ that Muslims can’t really be patriotic Americans. That’s a lie, and conservative bigotry is exactly what this meme is promoting.
Technique Used

This is propaganda because
This is justifying hate by aligning it with patriotism.

    The Republican Propaganda machine is at work trying to rile up rhe base. It is a damn shame that they are so divisive. Muslim is a religion, just like Baptist, Carholic, Jehovaha Witness etc.

    I disagree with the statement in the background info field. Shame on YOU for promoting hate rhetoric. The post is not promoting bigotry. It's only saying to share if you don't care if Muslims don't like our flag. I do not care if they don't like our flag & I'm not against Muslims. But who ever wrote that statement is trying to twist words & promote dissension.

    @Real American, this is not Republican Propaganda, it is coming from the Radical Left Wing Democrat’s! It is meant to do exactly what it appears to be doing, it’s convinced you it’s hate coming from Republicans and has caused you to resent them. It’s made you angry at a group who has had nothing to do with this, so they can convince you to vote for them! Please open your eyes and be “woke” to how dirty the left plays in order to score votes! They will do anything to get ride of our current sitting President. Please do not fall for this! It made me so angry when I seen this post on my timeline because I knew right away what it was meant to really do! I am Republican and I respect you as a fellow American regardless of your religious beliefs!

    If this meme comes from the left, why are those on the right sharing it?

    The conservatives that shared this on my friends list aren't hard core left wing democrats, so even if True Patriot was right it wouldn't make much difference when bunch of people on my feed are sharing it.

    Really, it's was created by the Right to make it look like it was created by the Left in an effort to make it look like hate coming from Republicans that are trying to make look like a scare tactic by the Democrats who are trying...etc.

    This meme is not anti Muslim. There has been a trend among leftists to denigrate and affiliate most American institutions and symbols with hate towards one group or another. When I see the flag I see inclusion and diversity. Leftists see tribes and divisiveness. I fought for the people of this country. All the people including Muslims. That's what I gave my right leg for. That flag symbolises that sacrifice. Are those ideals conservative? I never thought so. But whatever you call them, I am proud of those ideals.

    I think this meme is doing exactly what it’s supposed to do.
    Name blame on both sides.
    It’s the Left, it’s the right
    It’s meant to divide and have people point blame to being not “woke” enough or being too “radical” but the whole point in creating propaganda is to create tension, create chaos and create blame, so it’s easy to see someone who disagrees as less human.
    It’s easy to attack someone when you see them as the enemy, it’s much harder to attack when you know that person who’s opinion may differ is a father, a brother, a friend, in love or in pain.
    My initial reaction to my friend who posted this was “Wow, yeah!” But then when I thought about it and after reading a bunch of comments here, I don’t think it’s a “wow yeah” but a “oh no”.

    The meme isn’t patriotic or justified or bullshit.
    It’s a tool to be used for more divisions.

    What a crock of sh!t. This flag and the men and women fighting in the name of this flag saved my family from genocide. I'm a muslim, proud to live in America and proud of this flag. If you are offended by this flag it just proves to show you've allowed yourself to be brainwashed by left wing propaganda. The flag is not racist and people are not racist for loving this country. Something is wrong with you if you are offended by this flag and pushing bs that anyone of color or different ethnicity is offended by it. This country literally saved me and my family from being murdered and thrown in a mass body ditch. If you think this is evidence of American injustice, I urge you to visit another country for one day. Morons! I ❤ the USA! As should every American regardless of your ethbicity and political views. America is a beautiful melting pot. This "racism" you speak of is literally paranoia onset by the left wing propaganda machine. Open your freaking eyes people!
