    Your last sentence especially hit it home for me. I’m not currently proud of America, and I myself would feel like a total jamoke waving around the US flag with a grin right now.

    But I will vote and try my best to fight for a country that I can be proud of.

      …one can support american ideals without supporting actions of the american state: it’s our choice which that flag represents…

      …sadly, fascists have so brazenly siezed the apparatus of our state that whenever i see its flag proudly unfurled these days, my first reaction is to associate its bearer with fascism…
