When they had us stand up in grade school and pledge allegiance to the flag. Nope, no thanks. If we're that amazing we wouldn't compel children to worship nationalist symbols, we'd give them reasons to be proud of their country rather than trying to compel worship.
On the other hand we're #1 at a lot of things, like medical bankruptcies, mass shootings and incarceration per capita. So, go us and our amazing country?
Same for me, stopped doing it in high school ~2011. Felt weird and culty to me, so I sat for it. My critical examination only continued from there, and I grew up in a very conservative/nationalistic household.
So everyone should try not to worry about conservatives having all of the kids, lmao. Conservatives birth future leftists too ✌️
