I don’t understand this weird American obsession with flag. I was looking at some photos of Trump’s rallies. Flags everywhere - on shirts, hats, glasses etc. And this bizarre cult of the flag - “it cannot touch the ground” etc.
At the end of the day the flag is just a piece of cloth. If you worship any flag or take offense to any flag, you need to get a life.
I understand a flag having meaning. What I don’t understand is kids pledging allegiance to the flag everyday. That’s some North Korea shit.
it’s post-ww2, cold war-era creepy shit. Need to make soldiers and weed out the conspirators.
Nope. That’s some American shit. And it was American shit long before the DPRK even existed.

Capitalism bruh
From your own link. To me sounds more plausible than “it was Big Flag!”
