BOSTON — The Department of Homeland Security posted a photo of Fenway Park on Tuesday with a simple caption: "Our nation and our people are worth fighting for."
That's it. That's the post.

— x - CelticsFan617 (@soxnationfan9) April 22, 2026Do not use our ballpark to promote your inhumane agenda, please and thank you.
— Three Dollar Dewey (@3DollarDewey) April 21, 2026Worth fighting you for it, fascists.
— Kristen Kelleher (@kelleherkrisl) April 22, 2026But they aren't worth food stamps? Not worth healthcare or bodily autonomy? Aren't worth having warrants signed by judges? I wish when this is over you are all thrown into Alligator Alcatraz and forgotten about.
For context, this is the same agency that's been pulling convicted child molesters, gang members, and murder fugitives off the streets of Massachusetts all year. Meanwhile, the City of Boston just awarded a grant to an immigrant nonprofit that advertised up to $500 in wellness allowances for yoga, hair salon visits, and massages — before the org returned the money after public backlash. But a photo of Fenway Park with the word "fighting" in it is where people draw the line.
It's a strange hill to die on — and yet, a very Boston one. A city full of $3,500 studio apartments rented by college kids who moved here two years ago and already think they speak for the neighborhood.

One person tried to make it a gotcha:
Fenway Park is located in a Blue City which is located in a Blue State and you people loathe those so this propaganda doesn't even make sense https://t.co/kPEtrf6eF8 pic.twitter.com/Fk3gy1pOoV— Swiftology (@catchypiccolino) April 22, 2026
Meanwhile, the rest of America responded a little differently:
— Tex55 (@Tex55747690) April 21, 2026Even you piece of shit Massholes are worth fighting for!
— Ron Cossette (@bostontex12) April 22, 2026Definitely worth fight for.
However, the Red Sox lineup is trash and I don't care if Trevor Story ends up in a North Korean prison camp.
All of this over a picture of a ballpark.
