AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

In case you see this... Spread the word: We must encourage everyone to display American flags during these No Kings protests. If shit gets wild, we need to show images of the American military and law enforcement attacking peaceful Americans proudly displaying the American flag.
