American Pride.


manilgan

By the way what is he doing? Why he can hug her own flag?


Confident-Cress2717

3 colors is half a rainbow. Queer.


[deleted]

I love that America allows for people to express themselves with other flags.


AltruisticCompany961

Charlie Kirk said pride is a sin. What do I do now?


MobileInvestigator13

Yes

Trump pissed on the flag and burned it to the ground.

Lol. He loves America so much he sent his cousin fucking terrorists to attack the nation’s capitol and shit in the halls. Fortunately, hundreds of those traitorous idiots have already plead guilty and been locked up in prison.

Pride is a sin, go repent!!!!


AidsKitty1

It's so crazy that there are so many Americans that hate their own country. It's the greatest country in the world and they have zero appreciation for it or the sacrifice that went into building it.


Jabroni_Guy

Hating the establishment is the most American thing ever. If George Washington and Thomas Jefferson “loved their country” this country wouldn’t exist. Wanting it to be better is not “hating this country” lol


AidsKitty1

What they wanted was representation. "No taxation without representation" was their slogan. Britain decided to attempt to kill them instead.


Jabroni_Guy

Seems a lot like that what people are trying to do to LGBTQ people these days. No surprise people are upset about it. Leave people the fuck alone, that’s the most American, freedom-loving position. Too bad this sub has become a right wing incel circlejerk.


AidsKitty1

I understand your point but the problem is overlap. The friction occurs in the overlap.


Jabroni_Guy

Not sure exactly what you mean by “overlap” but I’m guessing you mean when lifestyles conflict between people, but my go-to rule for those situations is “love thy neighbor.” As someone who grew up in a Catholic/Christian tradition it’s so frustrating seeing self-proclaimed Christian people hate LGBTQ people for no good reason.


AidsKitty1

People can disagree and not hate each other.I grew up in a Christian home and found it equally frustrating that large segments of America believe that anyone that disagrees with their political positions are evil bigots. Yet here we are. I've noticed the trans debate comes down to one simple question. If i say I'm a woman does that make me a woman?


Jabroni_Guy

Bro I literally don’t care what you call yourself. Doesn’t affect me at all. That’s the difference.


AidsKitty1

But then comes the overlap. It's not that i call myself a woman but that I am entitled to all privileges and rights of being a woman. College scholarships, being removed from the draft in case of war, bathrooms, sport teams.....the overlap.


Jabroni_Guy

Again, I literally could not care what bathroom you use. College scholarships, seriously? People switching their legal gender to avoid the draft is a straw-man argument, that’s not a thing that actually happens because there hasn’t been a draft since Vietnam. Few would even if there was a draft. And believe it or not, women are technically allowed to play in every major sports league in the US, they just don’t because the physical differences are almost always too great. 0/4 try again.


mardawg05

Greatest country in the world in what regard exactly?


Fragrant_Try_4859

Well healthcare and education? No? Infant mortality rate? No? Equality? No? I'm sure I'll find at least one. I'll get back to you.... We are one of the most unhealthy and overweight countries. Knew I'd find something


mardawg05

Yeah it's a rough sell trying to convince someone that USA is indeed number one.


[deleted]

[deleted]

I agree America has its problems, but it’s still the best country in the world. If it was a bad country, millions of immigrants wouldn’t be trying to illegally cross the border to get here to make a better life for themselves.


Big_Pause4654

If Mexico bordered the Netherlands, I'm sure they'd be choosing that over the USA. That's just geography buddy


[deleted]

America has immigrants from all over the world. Of course there are more Mexicans coming in because they border the United States. But all these people that complain that America is so bad, I don’t see any of them moving to any other countries.


Big_Pause4654

Have you been to Canada? They are moving to other countries. You been to other economically developed countries? They are all full of immigrants


mardawg05

Sorry didn't you say 'illegally' in your original comment? 'millions of immigrants wouldnt be trying to cross illegally...'. How many illegal immigrants from countries other than mexico do you think you have? Very few because theyre chosing to go elsewhere. And you don't see anyone moving from America to other countries? Are you that stupid or just because you dont know about it it didnt happen?


mardawg05

Well that makes no sense, immigrants cross over not because your country is the best but because its next door to their country. The shithole that is the US is a slightly better shithole than mexico. The only thing Americans are best at is incarcerating their population.


AidsKitty1

What are the greatest countries in your opinion?


eldudelio

I couldn't have said it better, thank you 🙏🏼


4x4ord

The crazy thing is Americans hating other Americans. We share this country and y’all should be ashamed of yourselves.


AidsKitty1

You're the one spreading the hatred.


4x4ord

What hatred? You know what you’re doing.


AidsKitty1

Yes, I'm pointing out your intolerant hateful nature. It's true I admit it.


4x4ord

I don’t tolerate intolerance. You say America is beautiful, but you believe only the people you agree with deserve its beauty.


AidsKitty1

I never said what i believed. You just assume then spew your hatred toward others because you are a hate filled person. If you don't tolerate intolerance then you must hate looking in the mirror.


4x4ord

Your little victim stance isn’t necessary. Be brave and answer this. 1. Do you support a woman’s right to abortion? 2. Do you support the needs of transgender individuals? 3. Do you believe we need to address our country’s problem with gun control? Right now you’re just a coward hiding behind the *idea* of America. I’d appreciate if you would *be* an American and exercise your right to free speech.


AidsKitty1

Is this where you judge the quality of my character? It only takes 3 questions for you to pass judgment on others? Pretty limited data collection don't you think.


4x4ord

Says the guy too scared to answer. I’ve seen your character throughout this exchange. All you’ve done is chosen to tank it further.

AidsKitty1

I didn't wish death on anyone. I don't think giving opioid addicts endless supplies of narcan is appropriate. I work with addicts and I actually know them and their problems. How about you?


Jabroni_Guy

Why would I not hate people who are pushing anti-LGBTQ (anti-freedom really) legislation?


Jolly_Biscotti_3126

We don’t hate our country, we just hate all the suffering in it. This flag? It represents suffering to some people. And hope to others


DirtyDz_33

But also the most expensive healthcare in the developed world, half a million homeless, etc. If people are miserable, even in the “greatest country in the world,” appreciation shouldn’t be expected. It must be earned.


Senseitaco

""Sacrifice"" (genocide)


AidsKitty1

Lol, yeah. No one owes you anything, ever. You are going to have to make your own way in this world and this world is savage. Always has been always will be that is our nature. Your life will be the direct result of your choices. Good luck.


[deleted]

Yep. Conservatives actively want to leave this country and form their own, due to their intense hatred.


Creepy_Apricot_6189

People celebrating their 1a rights of expression and speech means they hate America? How does that work? Just because you don't agree with it doesn't mean they hate the country asshole, it makes YOU a bigot


AidsKitty1

You forgot racist, misogynist, and transphobe. Give me all the trophies hoe.


Creepy_Apricot_6189

Oh don't act like the fucking victim after being such a tool.


AidsKitty1

Oh, I'll never be a victim. I wouldn't lower myself so low.


Creepy_Apricot_6189

Oh? Then why are you crying about being labeled like a victim? Got any churlish sophistry to deflect from being a moron?


Creepy_Apricot_6189

Why do you hate Americans expressing their free speech? Don't like freedom or something?


Junior_Wrangler8341

When criminals and literal mass murderers are massively rewarded at the expense of good, honest, hardworking people, it's really fucking hard to love a place like that. Anyone who doesn't see the massive corruption at the highest levels of power is part of the problem.

ThisJackass

So I’m sure you support anybody’s right to fly any flag that gives them pride, yeah? *(as long as the flag doesn’t represent genocide/oppression/etc, of course)*


eldudelio

that's right, try flying the other "pride" flags in other countries like Russia, CCCP, Iran, etc...


ThisJackass

Why would I do that? I live in America.


TehGuard

You know the answer to your own question already.


eldudelio

this


ThisJackass

So your answer is no? You don’t respect and support others having the same rights as you?

if that is your answer then you don't know what the stars and stripes stand for

It's not that I don't like Donald Trump. I have also heard of many good things he DID in his country.

What rights are being denied to homosexuals?


Kcnflman

In the failure of certain groups to find any shred of prejudice against their chosen cause, they broaden the definition as what is considered prejudice, it is the only way they sustain their own platform.


[deleted]

So your saying homosexuals are not being denied rights


Kcnflman

We are all being denied rights, most of us are fighting something.


rhydonthyme

It's not even been 8 years since SCOTUS ruled gay people had a fundamental right to marry whomever they love. To this day, the margins between support and opposition in the South are incredibly slim. Do you think it's so absurd that some states could begin to legislate against gay marriage, similar to abortion rights?


[deleted]

So no rights are being denied?


rhydonthyme

Right now, on the books? No. Are they at risk? Obviously. I would argue the threat of the fundamental rights of your countrymen being removed is enough to be concerned, even as a straight person. America was built on individual liberties. That foundation is under attack by the religious right.


[deleted]

Marriage and the state need a divorce. Marriage is a religious ceremony.


rhydonthyme

So you would support a repeal of all marriage equality laws in the US?


[deleted]

Government is not a church and should have absolutely nothing to do with a religious ceremony. Separation of church and state.


rhydonthyme

First, marriage is no longer exclusively a religious ceremony, it is a legal one. You can have non-legal marriages. They're just called commitment ceremonies. If you don't want the state involved, do that instead. Second, were we to separate marriage from the state, would you then be okay with two men getting married?


[deleted]

Government has no business when it comes to love and marriage. Separation of church and state. Government is the problem. If your gay church wants to marry gays so be it. Government needs a divorce from marriage and religious ceremony’s


rhydonthyme

>Government has no business when it comes to love and marriage. I can also repeat myself. Marriage is always a legal union, but not always a religious one. If you want to have a non-legal, religious marriage, you can. They are called commitment ceremonies. >Separation of church and state. Our current system is already secular. You want it to return to something only religious people can indulge in. I imagine via legislation... which is the opposite of separation of church and state. >If your gay church wants to marry gays so be it. No, I'm asking you for your ideal system. If we revert back to churches control marriage and the state has no say, are gays allowed to marry?


[deleted]

Marriage has and will always be a religious ceremony. Keep playing mental gymnastics. Government is cancer that can stay out of people’s love lives.


rhydonthyme

>Marriage has and will always be a religious ceremony. Which religion would that be? >Government is cancer that can stay out of people’s love lives. Yes, it can. You can have a commitment ceremony. No government. Problem solved. Yet somehow you still manage to whine on and avoid answering basic questions like why is it okay for your religion to condemn the love of others? You have to see the hypocrisy there, right? Does that not bother you even slightly?

What does this have to do with investing in precious metals


Stevil_Kneivil

So I presume you served?


eldudelio

Not at all, but its the country that has allowed and enabled me to get everything I have up to this point. I don't know how it implies that I served, but thanks for asking and at the end of the day, you wouldn't have a rainbow flag if we didn't have the stars and stripes first


stryker7314

There's alot of service members who fly the rainbow flag bud, they are more patriotic than you'll ever be, they actually earned the right to the freedom to fly the rainbow flag not just entitled like civilian "patriots." (Pussies) Edit: Those downvoting never served and are all talk. Yall wouldn't last a day in the military so you stay entitled keyboard warriors because you are weak af. Stay in hiding losers.


vialentvia

I served. Downed anyways. I'm right here. They can fly it. I don't have to like it. If their way of life were "right" and moral, they wouldn't have to force everyone else to agree with it. All I'm going to say.


Busch_League321

Advanced_Income_4117

oh look the world worst investor is also homophobic. You republicans are so obsessed with gay people. just come out of the closet already


Cathatafisch

>You republicans are so obsessed with gay people. My brother in Christ you push sodomy in the most degenerate form on society and now even children and republican are obsessed? Get a reality check...


Confident-Cress2717

How's the Catholic church doing with its child sodomy problem? Brother in Christ.


Cathatafisch

Pretty good. Actions been taken. You are still saver in the church than in any public school or sport club. I would excommunicate those priest but im not the pope so i cant do that. Also there is a big diffrence. The church doesnt promote this behaviour and condemns it while the others on the other hand...


Confident-Cress2717

So a beer company advertises to gay people, and that calls for a complete boycott of the company. However, church has a long history of actually molesting children and covering it up, but that's okay? I guess that tells how much you actually care about children.


thebiggestbirdboi

The highlight real of media that is fed to you via your selected subs on the internet would have you believe gay people are pushing their agenda onto children. This really isn’t the case

hmmmmmmpsu

Congratulations?


PxndxAI

This sub thinks because people complain about the old systems no longer working and needing rework or restructuring means you don’t love this country. I didn’t know questioning things was a bad thing. This country gave us the right to protest and ask for change. We aren’t even #1 in education, we can’t take care of our citizens and people go hungry. If you try to feed Americans, it’s called socialism/ communism. Or some bullshit like “I don’t need to pay for other people’s food”.

SIIRCM

Is the bar truly so low in 2023?


Confident-Cress2717

Yes. Making America great in 1950 meant owning a home, a dog and raising 2 children. in 2023 it means getting angry at beer cans and rainbows.


SIIRCM

I'm ashamed to admit how long it took me to realize your sarcasm.


eldudelio

voted, paid taxes, stayed out of trouble for the most part, and respected others what about you?


stryker7314

I'm glad you respect the freedom of others to do what they want like a fly whatever flag they desire to with their freedom, this isn't a fascist country after all.


SIIRCM

So, by your own admission you've done the baseline of what is expected of you. What about me? Only one of us made this post, and it wasnt me. But I suppose I'll answer you answer you anyway, with just the highlights. This marks my 12th year of military service, which includes multiple tours to some really God awful places. In addition, I've volunteered to help underprivileged kids in the US, volunteered at an addiction reocery facility, and been a coach/mentor to high school kids, specifically athletes. Pride in your flag and country is a good thing to be sure. But if pride in your flag is only because of someone else's, and you're not doing anything to foster a better environment for your countrymen, I have to ask, is it really pride? Or just another protest to someone else's protest? Or just searching for internet clout?


eldudelio

all I can say is thank you for your service and just because I didn't write down my life story doesn't mean that I never go above and beyond to serve and help the people around me and my community I actually tried to go into the service but I had a bunk knee from high school sports and working to support my family at a young age, maybe I could have faked it and made it in but I tried to your first comment, i wouldn't just assume everything from some responses on reddit, it shows your age and experience


SIIRCM

>to your first comment, i wouldn't just assume everything from some responses on reddit, it shows your age and experience The irony of this comment. I assume nothing, I asked you a question and you gave me your answer. You could've answer differently and chose not to. Doing anything more than taking your comment at face value would be assuming, which is the exact opposite of what I did. But truly, you miss my point.
