I wonder who made these rules. You're not supposed to let the flag touch the ground for instance. I'm only 5'1" and it's impossible for me to hang our flagup on the post cos it's way too high.
It's in the flag code. They're also not supposed to use the depiction of the flag in any way in the manufacture of clothing either, but here we are. https://www.legion.org/documents/legion/pdf/flagcode_07.pdf
It’s a flag. People need to get over themselves. Nationalism is one of the most ridiculous ideas ever. You’re not better than another person because you were born on different dirt.
Or if you worship the Sky Daddy or a Pea Pod, some of the most selfish people I know throw their Bible in my face as if that makes them superior to me, and yet they talk and act like they never even opened it up.
Not one rational person (with a functioning brain cell) is blaming him for Covid 19. If they are, they're wrong and morons for thinking it or its just the media doing to him what his team did to Obama for 8 years. Criticize everything he does, even the positives. However; his response, rhetoric, answers, lying, crying victim, and grotesquely incompetent mismanagement of Covid19 is an entirely different story. 100k+ are dead with more dying by the day. He's suggested drinking bleach/Lysol. He's suggested a drug that comes from a company in Europe he personally has investments in. He's too bitchy about his overrated predecessor to understand they left a fucking playbook to minimize a situation of outbreak/pandemic. But because "it was Obummer" it must be bad! Pundits cant spin him out of this without deflecting, misdirection, and changing the subject. I scratch my nuts and drink my beer while sitting couch on Sundays when they show the anthem. Last year for my birthday at Wrigley for a cubs game, there was a line for the horse troughs/bathroom during an anthem on a Sunday afternoon game. Hell there were lines for bleacher idiots to get more budweiser. One guy while awaiting his overpriced pisswater had the wherewithal to put his hand on his heart. Funny how all the people who swear they're not racist have no problems with that and don't say a word. The park employees didn't even stop concessions for the minute or two in the name of the "respect for the anthem." But the guy who peacefully protests and articulates he isn't disrespecting the flag/anthem got raked over the coals. Because 'Merica. "Nationalism: An infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind." --Albert Einstein
I forgot, my Irish Catholic upbringing (before I reached autonomy at 15) was wrong. Jesus didn't tend the sick, clothe the naked, feed the hungry, throw the pharisees/merchants out of the temple market on Sunday, forgive sinners, be friends with prostitutes/degenerates, tell the rich to give to the poor if they have intentions of going to heaven, or say the meek will inherit the earth. Evangelical Jesus hates poor people, screams at the lazy because they don't have a job to work 80 hours a week with garbage pay, has no problem with rich exploiting the system for their gain, and believes the rich should be the only ones to call the shots.
Haven't you figured it out yet? Often what you say and do is more often interpreted the way we see fit. It's been the rage more recently and they're called alternative facts.
