From my outside perspective, it's the pledge of allegiance.

Do you really have your kids stand up every morning and swear an oath to your flag? That's some real cult shit.

I had a teacher in elementary school that taught us that when a flag falls on the floor, you’re supposed to kiss it.

Yes, seriously.

It was just part of the normal flag-worship we were ~~taught~~ brainwashed with.

I was taught that if a flag falls on the floor you are supposed to burn it.

That is "flag law" but you also aren't allowed to display the flag on a T-shirts, in any disrespectful manner, or a fuckin pick up truck and yet. here we are...
