Okay, just to clarify -- I do NOT think that the flag is a symbol of hate. I am just acknowledging the fact that SOME people think so -- and as I said, I think that is very sad. This is what I wrote, bold added.
"The very sad fact is that to some people, the flag is divisive -- and some people do view it as a symbol of white supremacists and hate."
And as I have also said many times, I HATE how biased the NYT has become!
Explain why so many of us are flying the American flag then. Mine is hanging from the balcony. I see another one across the way on another balcony with flowers around it. We have parades and people carry the flag. The town is all decked out in flags on the houses and buildings. The streets are lined with American flags.
SOME Repubs. think they are the only patriotic Americans. Happy 4th of July and please, let us all come together someday.

"woke" is a stupid term and it doesn't apply to most Dems. They're offended by every little thing. But then there's the case of people WEARING the American flag as they storm our capitol. So there's wrong on both sides. It's the UNITED States of America.
I'd even argue this is a desecration, too; given it's politicizing the flag to support the police (thin blue line). I pledged allegiance to the flag and "the republic for which it stands", not to law enforcement.
