I don’t understand this weird American obsession with flag. I was looking at some photos of Trump’s rallies. Flags everywhere - on shirts, hats, glasses etc. And this bizarre cult of the flag - “it cannot touch the ground” etc.

At the end of the day the flag is just a piece of cloth. If you worship any flag or take offense to any flag, you need to get a life.

    I didn’t say anything about any groups being crazy.

    Jeezus christ English is hard. 🤦‍♂️

    the LEVEL. The LEVEL is “crazy”, which means “extremely high”. The amount of flag love shown by the most flag obsessed Brit isn’t as high as the love shown by muricans.

        wow. You are not a native English speaker at all, are you?

        “Shown” in this context means “expressed”.

        It’s painfully obvious you’ve never been to the USA.

          You:

          “Jeezus Christ English is hard.”

          Also you:

          “wow. You are not a native English speaker at all, are you?”

          Hilarious, keep talking.

          I need to learn more from your superior command of the language.
