    And if they start to burn a flag on the streets right on front of a random person, that random person will probably think “What a f*cking idiot”.

    One of my first moments of awakening that led me to becoming a leftist was seeing a protestor burn an American flag in response to the American intervention in Afghanistan in 2001. It aroused feelings in me that my stupid child brain had trouble putting into words. So at least in my case, a burning flag had a positive outcome, and I’ll always thank that anonymous person who I’ll never know. My greatest love of my nation’s flag is its flammability.
