Interesting. I was reading an article that was from an English person and no one wears them but during World Cup time, if that's true.cincybearcat said:

These 4 need to wear a flag pin.
What country's flag should they wear - the US or one from the countries Trump believe they come from? :P
(How many other countries politicians wear their nations flag on them? Case in point for another thread.)
And guess what...I was in Germany for about a week and I saw....GERMAN FLAGS!!!! On houses...on cars...even a pretty damn big one on the back of some ladies bike (with an attached cart). Drove a bunch. Frankfort, down the western side, southern area and back up. German flags were way more noticeable than I was led to believe!
In Barbados they love their flag and colors.
In Iraq quite a few places fly their countries flags too.0 -
I've seen this at Pearl Jam shows. It often blocks my view.tempo_n_groove said:

But ofc, if it is needed than AOC should put that pin on here and use the biggest of anyone in congress.

What really pisses me off about this latest round of "Who's the Better American?" is that it started with a vote on a specific piece of legislation that the vast majority of us know nothing about. What were the details in that bill? Why did its sponsors think it would help? Why did people vote for or against it? Did it even pass? I know these four voted against it, not sure why. I then learned 95 other Democrats voted against it, which means many Dems did. Don't know why. Don't even know if my own representative voted for or against it. I don't know if there were amendments offered. I don't know anything, including when this vote even took place. All I know is that for about a week now, four people called Nancy Pelosi a racist. Then some people said she's not. Then the president tweeted. Then some said he shouldn't have tweeted while others are defending his right to tweet. That's what I know.
Just imagine if those four ladies had gone to whatever convention they were at and discussed the specifics of the bill, their position on it, their alternative, and left all the racist/anti-Pelosi rhetoric out of it. Would we be further along in our solving this problem than we are now? How many more weeks are we going to give air to deciding who is more racist than whom?0 -

“The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
I'm unsure at the comparison between Germany and US. It seems that if you are in a smaller town with actual houses and land vs cities this is far more true though. Very few places to hang a flag in a city anywhere
Trying to remember Prague. I saw Czech flags but mostly on hotels I think. It's a city though and full of tourists so has an effect.

Now, I think you are puffing up your flag-spotting like Trump puffs up inaugural crowds. or you hanged around in touristshops. Hotels are ofc one place where there often are flags, wherever you go:cincybearcat said:
