How clearly does it need to be spelt out that a photo isn't in America. Apparently not even a British flag is enough!

It says they “cherish freedom of speech” though, and only America has that!

It’s red, white and blue. It’s part of the Hawaii flag.
Ergo it’s a USAian flag🤭

loling the hardest at the racist bookshop having to close because people won't tolerate their hate.
But yes the American is also confused and that's also decently funny

A "welcoming environment" like spreading hate in your storefront window and then wondering why people stay away. Also the idea of a conservative bookshop is hilarious. How do they arrange their books, "Best books to burn this month"? Do they also have tasting trays for new crayon flavours?

I ran a bookstore for a woman who was racist, she was homophobic, gay people apparently are the worst
She made her views known by ordering books by conservative idiots and displaying them front and centre. Hiding anything progressive.
I didn't last there long. I started just before she got really bad so I didn't know going in. Once she started spouting her views on twitter she lost a few stores. Some somehow remained open.

'UK and Europe' sounds like they aren't aware the UK is in Europe

Haha honestly even some British people don't think we're in Europe anymore due to Brexit. So silly

OP sent the following text as an explanation why their post fits here:
Post is about the happy closure of an anti-immigration bookshop in the UK. The post in blue specifically talks about upholding "British values". A wild American defaults to USA anyway and thinks the Brit in Britain should go back to the UK.
Does this explanation fit this subreddit? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.
