Comment | The point here is Joe Bloggs in Glasgow telling people for whom the flag is actually a relevant symbol what it is and how they ought to feel about it, even whether they should be allowed to fly it or not. You're really struggling to detach your feelings about the flag from the idea that other people may have other feelings about it. Imagine if a third party started telling Americans that their flag represents the genocide of the Iriquois people and that they shouldn't fly it. It's the same thing but because you and others think you're calling out racism, it suddenly isn't the same thing. |
