Counterpoint: Almost all of US history
Yes, WW2 was the exception not the rule.
WW2 was BARELY an exception, we were almost on the other side
Civil War was at least 50-50. The Union was certainly antifa.
Which makes you wonder when part of the country proudly changes the flag to look like this …
in vexillology, the study of flags, … flags had and still have great meaning because they are easily understood by those people who can read and not read … they might not be able to understand something like ‘The Declaration Of Independence’ or ‘The Constitution’ but they would all understand a symbolic image like a flag. Which is why changing the colours, orientation or images of a flag is so important … as soon as you change it, it is a symbolic meaning to say that you no longer identify with the old flag and now stand with a new flag you’ve created from the old.
Cringe.
The Swatzika also used to be a symbol a peace…
