Can anyone explain why someone seeking asylum from an “oppressive” country would be proudly waiving their country’s flag?

Is there any precedent for this? Honest question.

Did Jews escaping Germany wave the German flag?
Did Vietnamese fleeing communism wave their flag?



ETA: changed the image for those that don’t think it’s from the caravan. You can google it or just turn on the live news.

Invaders always hoist their flag.

Had this discussion with my fiancé today. I don’t understand why people from economically depressed and oppressed economies leave their country (obviously for the opportunities here) but at the same time would want to turn the US into the third world hell hole they left.

They aren’t asylum seekers. They are invaders. If they want to come here to be Americans they would be flying the American flag.

And if they were, they’d likely be received entirely differently.

Are you sure that's from the caravan? Looks like a pro-refugee political rally on the beach, complete with drummers?

A sniper should add her brains to that flag. At least the thing would have all 3 colors right then, Red, white, and blue.

Most German Jews loved their country, and I would not be surprised if they retained flags from the pre-Nazi period.

Likewise, most Vietnamese refugees were from the South, and it would not surprise me if they retained RVN flags.

I doubt that the Jews carried the Nazi flag or that RVN refugees carried the DRV flag.

I bet the Germans didn't wear "#indivisible" tee shirts either.

But I'm sure she just picked that up in a squalid village tienda in her native Honduras.

Why caravan migrants wave Honduran flags and burn tires in front of U.S. embassy

LINK

"Waving the flag of the country they're desperate not to be sent back to, and burning tires in front of the Tegucigalpa-located embassy of the nation they're supposedly desperate to live in, the Honduras caravan migrants, their organizers and their supporters don't exactly come off as big fans of the United States..."

Is that pic from the caravan? Are they coming up the coast?

I honestly don’t know.
