Here is another thread about it, the protestors are literally using fascist flags.

And regardless what you think about Belarus and its government, the current protests follow the exact same pattern as in Ukraine or Bolivia. Both ended up as fascist dictatorships. It doesnt make any sense that the United States gets to decide which elections are legitimate or not, considering their lack of democracy.

Murdered by first comment on that thread

This flag is used because the only other flag was created by Lukashenko himself. People using white-red-while flag are not using it because they support nazis, it is the flag of independent Belarus.

These sort of conspiracies are qanon level of stupidity. Just stop.

What a great flag to pick for a "democratic" revolution.
