Earlier quoted context omitted.

Is this a trend? Do you have any other examples? And what division would a world flag generate??

> And what division would a world flag generate? It's just a way of saying that you're too good for your neighbors. That's why it would appeal to liberals and libertarians alike.

Some enjoy their local cultures, customs and sovereignty and do not wish to dissolve into a homogenized nowhere-land of world culture/governance. Some people do not cheer for dystopia.

Continue with the scold though, very convincing argument so far.

ALL flags(standards/banners) are war symbols, declarations of intent to attack and of terrtory held by conquest, tribes,nations, and franchises alike. Any attemp to float the idea of a world flag is a (hidden attempt) of a declaration of total war on all countrys simultaneously, which unfortunatly is too ridiculous to even get points on style. Fashists always have some sort of fashion kink branding thing plus a cult…

This is simply not true. Pride flags. Edit: Also the Esperanto Flag.

pride flags, ha!, used durring "pride marches"

hung out directly with national, corporate, municipal flags,are you kidding me?

ALL flags are teritorial/tribal declarations with violence (police,security), as the ONLY default response to a challenge

so what? exactly? will happen if someone makes a habit of pulling down "pride" flags?
