Why raise another nation’s flag at all, let alone one filled with murder as a state goal.

Why raise the Canadian flag then? How many of my native brothers y’all kill?

National flags are jingoist nonsense. Patriotism is a social disease.

Patriotism is a social disease.

Agreed. Imagine being proud of where you’re from like it’s some sort of personal accomplishment.

Nationality isn’t an accomplishment, it’s a statistic.

I haven’t killed anyone.

A likely story!

And they’ve been doing it since 1999. Makes no sense to me.
