Listening to NPR's 1A (for First Amendment) talk show, they profiled a podcast that purports to explain modern attitudes by lokking to
history, specifically history from an academic perspective about how
whites treated Indians and ever since, white mythologized history to
cover up crimes. Dutifully, they recounted an instance in which George Washington gave written instructions ordering crops and seed crops
burned of an agrarian tribe that had aligned with the British during the Revolutionary War.
Now, I have no idea if Washington was truly concerned that this tribe
would actively participate in war, making them a threat, or if
Washington said to himself, Hey! This is a great opportunity to commit
that massacre I've always dreamed of, a war crime in contravention of the Geneva Conventions. I can get away with it knowing that it will be
forgotten by history, since Our Side will win!
Because we were not taught this in school, I am now obligated to believe--
the latter, if I listen to the academic.
And, because it's an atrocity against civilians, we must label it a "genocide" in modern historical revisionism. Because everything is a genocide.
This completely contradicts everything I was taught to believe as a
yout' about the Revolutionary War. Of course we were told that our side,
the right side, fought the war so that no civilians were inconvenienced
in any way, let alone killed. Because that's possible in war.
No, we were taught things like how many died at Valley Forge in winter
under harsh conditions. There was no food and no shelter and our brave
men died of exposure, perhaps not living long enough to die of
starvation. It was a strategic point on the Delaware River, yes, but the British weren't literally there because winter, sunning themselves
instead in Bermuda or something.
Is that an atrocity? A war crime? These were Washington's orders and
those men were directly in his command.
I just don't remember being taught that war is safe, like everyone else.
I was absent that day.
Now that I've been confronted with History is Not Like a Bowl of Cherries,
I can no longer think about any of the good in America and what I should
be grateful for having had the fortune of being born here.

That's readily dealt with. Fly a foreign flag at or above the height of
the Stars and Stripes at a government building except at the U.N.,
that's an invasion.
Operationalize the Coast Guard and send in the Navy. A small missile
launched at city hall should do the trick. Invasion ended.

We cannot tolerate any occupation of American soil by Somali pirates.

I noticed that by the lack of semiquincentennial coverage, save
for them covering DC breaking the records for for a fireworks
display on Independence day that focuses on the "air pollution"
it will cause.

I just saw this report out of Boston, where the mayor raised a Somali
flag over City Hall but one of her minions demanded that an American
flag be removed from a fence facing City Hall.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnFaMAqtNBA [7 minutes]
By the way, the news anchor is right: that City Hall building is the
very definition of butt ugly! The people who approved hiring that
architect should resign in disgrace.

The liberal media is doing the same for the DC fireworks.
I'm not sure where in CA this will happen, but their scheduled Independence Day festivities will begin will several "land acknowledments", followed by presentations for every. single. polical identity. group.

Did anyone bother to ask them why the migrating birds are conveniently only confused by seeing the American flag? They're cool with any other flag, just not the American flag? Are these birds communists also?

Amazing how many blue city governments seem to love Somalia more than America.

Both them and the architect are probably dead by now.
The architectural style is called Brutalism. It was all the rage in the 60s. FBI Headquarters in DC is the same style. It looms threateningly over Pennsylvania Avenue like some kind of Soviet apartment block.

You're not seeing the possibilities here. The right approach is to file
an urgent complaint that pride flags also confuse the birds. It will be
hard to explain how that's different.
