Whats going on

+

+ So the old fat orangutan wants flag burning bye bye. Before this there was + 10 commandments in schools, pride flag in government building ban... What + is a flag you may ask. Well its a blanket (not a very comfortable one + either) with colors and shapes on it. There are many things you can do with + a blanket even a uncomfortable one. Use it to stay warm if you have no + other option, use it as a rag for motor oil, use it to keep grass off your + ass at the park... With all these options what do people do with flags? + They hang them on a pole just begging to get rained on. They do it to show + what nation, political faction, community... they belong to. Same goes for + similar items. Every christian already knows the 10 commandment. They have + them in a book, they can find it on a search engine, they can ask their + gramdma... yet some christians feel the need to display them in large + letters for all to see including those (me) who consider it visual + pollution and arent going to mesmerize them regardless. They even often + bother to carve them on stones that look like tomb stones. Guess its canon + or something. They even want to force them into schools. These entitled + fucks want everything to be christian don't they. Fucking christ this and + christ that. +

+ +

The pointless waste symbolism is

+

+ When I was a little tiny child I thought people in governments + were talking about boring but important things like economics. We have a + housing crisis going on if you werent aware. Work places are getting rid of + highly skilled employees by the thousands all the time. Medical bills are + way too pricy. People in government are talking about these issues right? + Na, they are trying to prevent a flag from getting burned. Because of fire + safety? Wrong again, there were already laws for that silly. They in + general think the group they align themselves with should not be + disrespected and believe anyone who commits a act of disrespect should be + punished with legal action. They also think it should only work one way + because they are entitled fucks. Dam christians. They also think flags that + don't align with them should forcefully be bye byed with legal action. +

+ +

When action means nothing

+

+ What is all of this you may ask. Its symbolism. Why do something if you can + symbolize things? Harm people under the american flag? perfectly ok. Feed + ducks in the park under a nazi or dare I even say communist flag? Your now + officially labeled a terrorist by the NSA, FBI, CIA, and department of + defense. Under the weighted flag of symbolism symbols carry more meaning + than actions. Murder and murder with intent are two separate things. Doing + a action may vary on its legal status depending if you plan to insight + violence or not. Better not feed people normal food with the intent of + causing them to die sooner from lots of unhealthy fats. Under this system + better stick to feeding people poison with the intent their body might work + differently making poison good for them. How does the legal system measure + intent? Quite simple, a shot in the dark! Sure it may be wrong + sometimes. May be wrong half the time. May be wrong most the time as far as + we know but a broken clock is right twice a day. AKA pretty dam close to + correct as far as legal systems are concerned. Reminds me of another + issue. Why is it that the law is more concerned with arresting someone than + arresting the correct person? Symbolism. A crime cant happen without + someone going to jail. Cant find the correct person throw someone else in + their place. Kind of like when you are trying to sleep but need to pee and + dont want to get out of bed so you send someone else to pee for you. Unlike + silly brains the legal system not only thinks up these thoughts but rolls + with them. +

+ +

Dam christians

+

+ Christians go crazy over symbols. Massive christian sects have split + arguing over symbols and how they should be used. Some worship them like + god is right there. Others destroy them claiming the symbols contain + satan. What happened to spreading jesus? Didnt jesus feed people and tell + people to treat each other with kindness? Havent ever spent much time with + a bible in my hands but I dont think jesus dedicated so much time and + energy into symbols when there were people in need of real help. +

+ +

When progressive ideas are reduced to a symbol

+

+ Sarcasm warning! +
+ Defend the freedom and liberty of lgbtq+? Na, liberals only care about the + colors. Actually stop racial inequality? Na, just tell a few white guys to + feel shameful and call the problem fixed. What about womens freedom and + liberty? Put a few women in leadership positions to symbolize change. You + know what, I feel society have gotten so much better ever since a few + progressive symbols were put up in a few places. I think the issue is we + dont have enough of those. Isnt this wonderful? Actually arguing economics, + freedom, and liberty is completely removed from the political + framework. All you can do is argue for things that symbolize those. We are + truly fighting wars with cardboard cutouts of guns. Better not pull out the + cardboard cutout of a nuke! Real progressive ideas been labeled too + dangerous. New ideas and ways of thinking may change the fabric of space + and time. Better just stick to cardboard cutouts. +
