We had not only national anthems, but a whole-ass flag raising ceremony weekly. And there’s even a “Little Red Scarf” ceremony once a year.
When I first came to the US, I just thought the pledge was a normal thing. But according to some Europeans on the internet, its apparantly just… not a thing in their country?
Not only is not a thing, but the rest of the world views it as distinctly odd. Performative patriotism looks a bit creepy from the outside. I guess you have to be born into it, but we all know that family who does something and remains unaware just how it looks?
Lol child indoctrination
I bet that kid even gets dragged to church on Sundays
So tame tho. See my other comment…

It’s completely not a thing in any country I’ve visited except America. You guys are the gold ribbon looniest.
That’s the nicest thing I’ve agreed with being said about my country in over a month. Thank you, kind stranger!
