Tbh I think flag hate or angst is about as useful/less as flag worship. If you need something to be preoccupied with, why not make it a problem you can put that energy into doing something about where you live - like homeless people or food aid.
I might be reacting this way because I’ve been getting recent emails from my college about changing the school mascot, which is a “pioneer”. When I was there I don’t remember even being aware that there was a mascot. But apparently they think “pioneer” might be too closely associated with colonialism and they’ve decided this is an important issue. My attitude is create a Native American scholarship (or anything that actually does something) - don’t obsess on imagery.

“Oh yeah, I remember this part…”
