From before we added "under god"

If I am ever a congressman I am going to get rid of that

The good thing is with unlimited presidential power like you get nowadays, you could just sign a shit ton of executive orders to force your will upon the people.

Only if you're a Republican and you don't do anything to hurt massive corporations or billionaires.

Why stop there? The pledge is super weird

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

You have a good point.

In the name of equality and peace, I pledge allegiance to the Killing People and Making Them Slaves and Taking Their Stuff Flag, and the equally wordy Republic for which it stands

Look at my "anarchist" instance dawg

hmmm, does that also mean liberty and justice to the third world countries being plundered by the us?

[-] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago

IMO, it should mean a commitment to liberty and justice for all. Meaning all.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

yes it should!

It is the hypocrisy of liberalism since its inception. All men are equal, but some men are more equal than others. Men have rights, but women don't.

Do American kids actually recite an oath to their country EVERY DAY? I keep hearing about that everywhere but it kinds of blows my mind to much for me to accept it as fact.

For context, I went to elementary school in China before I came to Canada, and in both countries the most we've done is sing the national anthem during assemblies.

Yes, I grew up doing "The Pledge of Allegiance" daily. Through some court cases students won the right to abstain, but I don't know if I've ever seen it. You would make yourself into an outsider immediately

I grew up doing it, but my kids in elementary and middle school don't. It's changed.

What happened with her neck?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

She used to be a dominatrix, and it made her neck strong. Like bull.

Link slightly NSFW

The pledge is indoctrination on NK levels. Holy shit.
