I decided not to continue the conversation after that. I don't really like getting into politics with my mom.

But I imagine there'll be a point where it'll be easier to talk about.

People trying to install Trump as dictator shouldn't be using anti-authoritarian symbols either.

I agree its hypocritical and against democracy, just saying the guilliotine isn’t like hammer and sickle or the black-red flag
