no they just demanded people wear masks and if any business dared to be open when they said they couldn’t they arrested them. You do remember those Covid days. I've consistently disagreed with shutting down business and leaving Walmart and Target open. Requiring a mask to be worn didn't infringe on any constitutional rights. Regardless, that's a weak association with mandating someone to stand for the anthem. The King of false equivalency, that is our cultist. 83.3M

Did I claim that it was an issue? BP had a good take and I commented. Coming from a country that doesn’t play the anthem for every high school game or have a pledged oath to their flag, I come at some of these rituals with a different perspective. But never did I say, as far as I can remember, that I had “an issue” with them. Judging from this and the other thread, you’re seeming really thirsty for attention today. 🤷🏾♂️ EDIT—- I also made a comment on the Time Zones thread, if you need to follow me around. 😄 Who cares if sports events takes 90 seconds to pay tribute to our country? Doing something for the sake of doing it, is no reason to do it. Again, I don’t have a problem with it, I observe it every time it happens and I do so respectfully. Doesn’t mean it can’t be questioned. Your “patriotism” is pretty transparent in this case, but by all means continue. This dance, you dance alone. Later moody.

Don't take part in it. Go get a coke. It's funny to see the positions you work yourself into purely out of reflexive opposition to certain people. IKR!

When was the USA at risk of being Nazis? “Nazi” must be your favorite word, although you clearly don’t what it means. Nazi = Nationalist Socialist. Forcing people to participate in the national anthem is nationalist in nature, half of Naziism. Nazis were Nazis because they wanted to restore a German nation and root out people who were different. Trying to root out people who don’t want to stand for the anthem is more similar to Naziism than allowing people to not stand who don’t want to. What total @$$%*!*. Standing for the national anthem i is a simple thank you to the people who gave up the ultimate sacrifice. You Democrats are pitiful. We’re supposed to admire rainbow flags for gay people. We’re supposed to admire the Black Lives Matter symbols. But yet you’re triggered by blue lives matter flag, and standing for the American flag. Don’t you think you Democrats have %*$# all over America enough already. You’re the only person who’s triggered and who doesn’t know what Nazi means and uses it wrong many times a day.

Forcing people to participate in the national anthem is nationalist in nature, half of Naziism. "Nazi" may have stood for "National Socialist", but the name was an intentional lie. You can't go by names alone. Case(s) in point: all those "Democratic Republics" that used to be behind the Iron Curtain. You think the Nazis weren’t using a notion of a pure German nation and the promise of restoring it as an impetus for their policies and actions, including the Final Solution?
