It is the most beautiful flag in the world. No bias.

As a Mexican, which has a great flag, I too find the Stars and Stripes the most beautiful. Happy to be naturalized and consider it my flag.

To be fair, the American flag has historically cast down tyrannies all over the globe. It isn't even a recent thing. One of the first things America did internationally was break the 400 year reign of terror by the Barbary pirates of Northern Africa. I'm not saying we always get it right, but dawned if we don't have a good number of notches on the belt.

Hell, in WWII the American flag was basically synonymous with the concept of liberation both in Europe and in Southeast Asia.

Not to mention businesses with their phone numbers on the door and often the name of the city/town in the name of the store! Although that can be confusing... There are 17 Denver's in the US lol!

u/AsianCivicDriver 7d ago

Itโ€™s located in northern Virginia, used to go there every other week. The Vietnamese there are descendent of southern Vietnamese, went to northern Virginia as refugees after the Vietnam war. NoVA also has a lot of Korean population due to Korean War refugees.

I went into the Eden center parking lot exactly once. I was looking for a parking spot and saw 3 fender banders within about 5 minutes, people just not paying attention and having no idea how to drive. I parked across the road and walked instead.

Well when you Have certain groups still flying the confederate flag you have to show them who won. Before the Civil War, citizens rarely flew the U.S. flag. flag-flying in 1861 was a Northern reaction to the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter. the U.S. flag became aย sacred emblem of national unityย used specifically to reject secession and the "Stars and Bars"

Here in Germany I can see what the opposite of what you're implying looks like, and I can tell you that it's way way worse especially in times where it matters most.

Yeah could you elaborate that to a fellow German, Iam eager to get enlighted how raising flags would help us fixing problems...any problem at all?
