AITA not taking down my yard flamingos after neighbors complained?

Why does are protagonist have to be the one to keep the peace? Wouldn't the more peaceful thing be to not try to rally the entire neighborhood against one woman just because she has two pink flamingos on her property? Crazy, I know.

These suggestions are completely diabolical! I truly hope that our protagonist goes through with some of these.

Unfriendly neighborhood Karen demands that woman remove “gaudy” plastic flamingos from her yard, posts pictures of her house and yard online to rally neighbors against her: “I have no plans to take them down"
Considering I want to keep living the city life, my brief dreams of having my own house with a white picket fence and an expansive front yard are totally down the drain. Well, to be honest, I never quite dreamed of having that sort of thing anyway. As a kid, I saw all of the effort my dad put into maintaining a perfect lawn. His dedication was impressive, but watching him toil away (and occasionally making me help) made want just the opposite; I always imagined I'd have a beautifully overgrown lawn reminiscent of The Secret Garden. Little did I know that wouldn't be possible with most HOAs.
In our story today, a young woman doesn't need an HOA dictating how to take of her lawn. Instead she has an annoying Karen neighbor starting fights over a couple of plastic flamingos. She even goes as far as to post pictures of our protagonist's house and yard online in an attempt to rally everyone against her choice in decoration. Our protagonist takes to the internet, too, and netizens try to convince her to double down with her "gaudy" ornamentation.
