Agreed. You don't see anyone waving the flags of western nations in their countries, now do you?

WE MUST LIBERATE AMERICA!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Explain to me how this makes sense

Ok - take yourself on a trip through history where nations were being formed from 5000 BC to present 7025 years... As part of wars or as part of conquering territories, nations would have flag-bearers. Flag bearers would carry the flag of the nation of their army. As part of both representation & also in part for intimidation.

It was a message that "we are here" and usually also implied "soon you will not be here." when armies went across sovereign lines of territory.

Okay, I am well versed in history, and I know that there are two ways to be proud your current or original country; Patriotism and Nationalism. Both can involve waiving flags. People can represent their homeland without hating their new country(Patriotism) or they can represent their homeland in and hate their new country(Nationalism) You don't have to hate the U.S to waive your homeland's flag. Also funny thing I noticed is that many people waiving the U.S flag show more signs of nationalism than patriotism

Common sense was never your strength right?

Because it is possible to like your country and culture but not what is happening in said country.

Now you're referring to a Refugee. Refugees flee their county because of the state of things in their country. When they get refuge in a better country, where they aren't being persecuted by whatever circumstances -- they aren't coming in waving their country's flag.

He is just playing naive because he lost the argument.

Wait, isn't America supposed to be the land of opportunity? Isn't that how we advertise ourselves? Don't we also say were are a melting pot of different cultures? So doesn't it make sense that even if people love their home country, they might feel inclined to come here. Wouldn't they also be inclined to share their culture? Y'all have lost sight of the true American values: How diversity is our strength and how we are a place for people can fulfill the American Dream

Now you're referring to regular immigrants - who have a deep love for the United States & contribute to society. Those kind of people take classes to learn our government go through tons of vetting & stand for the national anthem on their path to citizenship.

Those kind of people are awesome & this country has an entire process for it that's awesome.

Those kinds of people usually fly the American Flag in America because they are proud of this country. They are thankful for this country. Then - they also bring their culture with them. For most cultures that is good. But you will still see them flying a US Flag for the most part.

The amount of illegal migrants that fly the US flag are vastly less compared to normal migrants.

Ask him where he's from. Because it isn't the United States of America.

I didn't see your response but had a similar reaction of my own.

great minds...
