    Ah yes, progressives and leftists, notoriously concerned with government waste and undeserving foreigners, this original tweet definitely wouldnā€™t have any effect on the ā€œIā€™m not racist butā€ moderates that the Biden and Harris campaigns chased after by getting tough on asylum seekers and talking about having the most lethal military in the world /s

    Incidentally, what do you suppose that watermelon in the reply name means?

      The watermelon was, at least at one point, a show of support for Palestiniansā€™ struggles. Something about sharing colors with their flag.

      But as with all symbols, this may not be accurate to their meaning of it. I was basing it off the trans flag next to it (a not uncommon pairing).
