ok it seems like this unhealthy strange flag mania is not a us only thing? I thought it exists only on the left side of the ocean, Who cares about this things. You waste so much time debating about unnecessary things

if you want to burn it, burn it, if you want to drop it on the floor drop it, and fold it the way you want. it’s just a fucking flag, a piece of cloth

How could they light that flag at all? There is this video of a guy trying to light an eu flag. But he can’t do it because of eu standards of making flags from inflammable material: https://files.catbox.moe/smydgl.mp4

Not USA, but I am somewhat patriotic. For those who actually don’t understanding why burning a flag irks some folk: Flag is a symbol of a country. People who feel pride for their country, who feel like they really are a part of that country and root for it, are feeling something akin to being spat on when the flag is burned, as it shows disrespect for country and what it stands for, them included.

I don’t judge people without context tho, as often burning the flag is a method of showing major dissatisfaction with how country is being run - in a sense, showing that one doesn’t feel this connection anymore.

And when done “for fun”…well, idiots are everywhere, whatever.

What if we burned a flag, not in protest, but in celebration of the very freedoms that allow us to burn a flag in the first place?
