I’m a person of color who isn’t MAGA at all and I’ve always loved the American flag. The only flags that tell me if someone is MAGA are the Confederate flags and any Trump flags. I live in the South and know liberals, regular Republicans, and MAGAs with “Don’t Thread on Me” flags. I think they all view it as a Southern pride flag.

MAGA has taken over the flag. We need to take it back.

We moved into a new house that sits on five wooded acres, and it has a very long driveway and you can't see it from the road, and at the entry to the driveway is an American flag hanging on a tree, and beneath it a "Do Not Trespass" sign. It was there when we moved in. Our house is very hard to find, and whenever an uber comes, or a someone doing work on the house or whatever, they truly cannot find our house, but if I explain there is a flag at the driveway it really helps them find us. So. We've kept it there for now. Looked at replacing it with seasonal flags, but they don't make a lot of those for the kind of flagpole we have.

Yes! Otherwise passersby will be spending thousands of dollars on comfort puppies & coloring books to try to recover from the trauma of seeing a flag & a sign close to one another.

I generally think it's silly to fly the flag in front of your house, and 98% of people that do have no idea how to do it properly. We don't except for a few days around July 4.
We're both military veterans, so it has nothing to do with a misguided sense of patriotism of dislike of the US.

It's now a MAGA symbol. A state flag means the state is managing against MAGA policy.

I don’t like what America is associated with or what it does to other countries- especially in the Middle East. That’s my association- I just think of imperialism, entitlement and racism at this point.

It is a bizarre American practice. People from other countries think it's really strange, and they are correct.

They also hijacked the cross symbol. It used to mean Christian, but now it means ultra right fundamentalist evangelical Christian.

What does being an Eagle Scout have to do with flying the flag?

It's the people who have a conscience who should be flying the flag enmasse and outnumbering the MAGA traitors pretending to be patriots.
