I’m glad to see people using American flags in these protests. That is OUR flag not the fucking racists. We cannot allow them to take our symbols and destroy them. That flag represents freedom and diversity and if they dont like it they can fuck off
I did too, and I heard a lot of people in my school only enlisting to kill Iraqi’s… I was in 8th grade when 9/11 happened, so we had a few years to let the anger fester before people were able to get out of school and legally go over.
Man I hella agree with this but…they kinda already claimed it. Since racism and nationalism go hand in hand. When you see a house with a flag, it’s always a racist old man, a truck? Racist younger old man, the super young racists tend to like blue lines or don’t tread on me’s but that’s not a hard or fast rule
I wish our flag stood for all the things we were brainwashed to believe as kids. But it doesn’t. Around the world, it stands for brash ignorance, chauvinism, neo-imperialism, and warmongering.
I guess it’s fitting that at home it doesn’t stand for much on its own. For sale and free use to the highest bidder and the lowest opportunist.
I keep it in mind as a “Loudest monkeys, smallest balls” rule. Those proclaiming their allegiance to something that is not unusual (ie an American in America) are often the least loyal to it.
That being said, I feel you. I only feel sadness when I see the American flag at this point.
Americans may have buried the last remnants of the principles America was founded on.

Too late. I have an automatic negative reaction when I see an American flag now. 77 million+ Americans made sure of that.
Honestly same, my country has let me down too many times. I lost count.
Nah fuck that they dont own the flag
Nah fuck the flag.
I wish I had your spirit. Carry on good sir/madam 🫶
I’ve had that reaction since the ‘support our troops’ days of yore.
I went to school with the kids of those troops, so my perspective’s a bit different.

I never heard that kind of thing, but I was around them in the mid-90s. A different time.
