And this pretty much sums up the answer to the topic from a leftist perspective.
Pledging allegiance to a piece of cloth is ridiculous.
(They hate nationalism and patriotism, which can indeed be dangerous in the wrong hands. The leftist views on the two seems to manefest from the thought patriotism and nationalism will lead to some form of the 4th Reich, since leftist history concentrates on three periods in history. Slavery, Jim Crow, and ww2.)
And let me know when everyone enjoys the same liberty and justice.
(Again the three points of history matters, so in this case America can never be great because the nation had slaves some 160 years ago. So by this logic we have to live in a society of never ending guilt and masochism for what our

Fair enough for you as well. I appreciate people who stand by their principals. Especially when they know why and are just not reciting talking points. I truly respect your view point even if I don’t agree with it.
And on the other side of the coin you dismiss things like slavery AND Jim Crow AND mass incarceration as issues that are unfortunate but should be ignored, forgotten or not improved upon.
