Before you send me hate mail...
I don't hate the flag, and I don't hate my country. What I do hate is the way marketing scumbags have turned the American flag (and our patriotism) into a giant money-making machine. The people who buy this crap are just as much to blame, filling their houses with cheaply-made "patriotic" junk.
I am also disturbed by the fact that people seem to think that waving a flag makes them better Americans. It doesn't. Patriotism is more a matter of community than a matter of how many and how high we wave our flags. This blog is a satire of this kind of exploitation, and I hope you can appreciate the humor. If not, then feel free to visit any number of humorless sites out there.
