See, I'm playing both sides so that I always come out on top.
Memes aside, it's totally not a form of brainwashing to have young children pledge allegiance to the flag before they're even old enough to understand the concept of pledges or allegiances!
Stop thinking for yourself, Corey.
Blindly accept allegiance to the piece of fabric we chose, Corey.
Just say the words and be indoctrinated into our cult to be a mindless slave with unwavering loyalty, Corey.
Do as we say, Corey.
The "and" is the really wierd part.
If they had worded it as "I pledge allegiance to the flag, to the republic for which it stands" you could think: "Ok, the flag is just a symbol of the country, you're actually just pledging allegiance to the country."
But, the "and" makes it clear that it's to the country and to the flag. How can you have allegiance to a flag? It isn't even about pledging to respect the flag, it's "allegiance". It's like pledging obedience to the colour blue, or pledging fealty to the sound of applause.
Here's why:
The Pledge of Allegiance was first published for Columbus Day, on September 8, 1892, in the Boston magazine The Youth’s Companion. It was written by a member of the magazine’s staff, Francis Bellamy. The publication of the Pledge, and its wide redistribution to schools in pamphlet form later that year lead to a recitation by millions of school children, starting a tradition that continues today.
Anyways, soldiers have died to save the flag. Standard bearers were critical officers during battle, and were responsible for holding a unit together, say when charging an enemy line or rallying the troops to defend a trench. Losing the standard could lose the battle and your men.
or pledging fealty to the sound of applause.
There's a joke in there somewhere about chasing fame and the approval of strangers
I would be wary of an ethnostate’s offer if you weren’t part of that ethnicity
Much safer to take Russia’s offer
