They're trying to do the same with the American flag with what the did with the St George's cross English flag.

In response double down, I know side scrollers currently have an 'American Pride' t shirt they're selling this month, do the same and so long as it isn't disrespectful, put a flag on it. American flag on your guns or bikinis are fine, napkins and mudguards not good.

This is similar in Aus with the Australian vs Aboriginal flag…

I’ve been told off (in public, not at work) for wearing the Aus flag before. Even on a wristband…

My local council tore down the Aus flag to put up a tranny one. They even took down the state flag off the Sydney Harbour Bridge to replace it with the Abo one. And all of that happened under supposed “conservative” governments…

Same shit different continent.

Positive news in Sweden, the local bank did not put a up a pride flag this year for fag month.

Yeah, we’re determined to follow Blue State USA on this path, and, as we often tend to do, to even “out-woke” them along the way…

That’s good about the bank! Maybe the local community feedback had been so negative that they decided they couldn’t get away with it this year, lol…

Actually, on the topic of Sweden, I really do miss it there.

I knew I was happier the last few months there than I had been in a long time (and I only left because my visa was no longer valid, after I left my study program, or so I assumed), but I didn’t realize quite how shit it would be to be back in Aus…

If I had known, I probably would have put up with the situation I was in there that I hated (the study program), or put more desperation into my search for another way to stay, because I just… Haven’t been the same, since.

Which perhaps has less to do with Sweden, and more to do with the lifestyle I was living over there, the fact that I couldn’t necessarily understand the news, etc.

Now I’m back to “old” me, in my “old” environment, and it sucks arse, lol.

But oh well. I built up a lot of debt during that six months. Unfortunately I don’t really have any choice but to pay that back…

The grass is always greener, I suppose.

The new theocracy conquers another corporate territory. You can wear a pride flag any time of the year at their locations, but the US flag only on holidays or memorials. That's like foreign soil rules. These pride zealots once again showing they are trying to form Gomorrahstan or something. They should be treated as expats or illegals.

I bet you could find a battle for everyday of the year. Tell them you wear a flag shirt for everyday the US were fighting the NAZIs. Are they going to be antisemitic and make you remove your NAZI fighter shirt?

Well they are on the permanent no-go list. I believe that's the closest gym to me too. I'd rather find other ways to work out than going to gyms anyway.

Yeah, I don't care for gyms. I walk and bicycle around the neighborhood for most of my exercise. What little weight training I want to do, I have a few freeweights.

It's for staff members only, but it's still a flagrant double-standard as they mention BLM, pride and 'juneteenth' (lol) to get passes for the entire year. With the American flag you'll have to ask permission from the general manager for occasions other than the designated holidays.

Meanwhile in the city of Austin they'll probably welcome people wearing a "Viva Mexico!" t-shirt carrying a Mexican flag in each hand.

That's some small dick maneuvers. I wonder why a bunch of body builders would do that.

Body builders don't run the HR departments of national corporations. That's one of the problems of our state sponsored corporate oligarchy - the legal protection of these mega-chains from consequences of their actions, has emabled the destruction of small businesses.

Locally owned places don't pull this shit and get away with it.

It's not a flag if it's on clothing, it's a representation.

And I've been told representation matters.

Starting to think that all virtue signaling is an offshoot of obsessive compulsive disorder at this point.

Depends on the gym you go to. You just have to price out the scum, quality gyms with saunas/steam rooms still exist in most areas and $100+ a month scare off everyone but the working class and retirees. Otherwise find a gym attached to a country club, they have the least likely chance of the usual suspects.

I mean I don’t see the point, the Weimerican flag is the flag of fags and nogs as that’s what Weimerica is all about.

I don't usually wear loud flag colors. I suddenly feel the need to repaint my car and go clothes shopping. Fuck these goblins.
