I think English signs itself isn't always sus. But Israeli flags? Come on.

English signs itself isn't always sus

It is 100% sus when the country isn't English. It implies the signs are there to beg for American support, not for support within their own borders (or from neighbours and allies)

This is false, pro-Palestine protests in Japan and South Korea have both used English signage. We need better heuristics for ops than “hehe English sign”

Coup in Brussels inbound???

They’re even chanting in English here, it must be because they’re appealing to western governments(?)

My city has a large international community that is a bit more activist than the local community do some protest will have mostly English signs even if they are anti imperialist. But generally I agree with you
