Leading up to the presidential election of 2020 we began to hear quite a lot about “Patriotism”, but we did not hear much about the definition of that word. Patriotism is one of those words that seems so self-evident, that it almost seems unnecessary to wonder about the definition, but perhaps we should do so now, as we are again headed into another of the ‘most important elections’ in American history.

It’s standing and singing a song while looking at the flag, right?
Then you go home and do what the *f you’re told. Call the cops on your neighbor when he doesn’t wear a mask out in the yard, or whatnot.
My patriotism pretty much ends at my county borders.
Half our citizens wear Ukrainian flags.
I think Cinco de Drinko is as big as Jul 4th here.
XD XD.... I read “country” instead of “county”.
Children:
Learn TRUE AMERICAN HISTORY in ENGLISH, have them each morning stand up facing the AMERICAN FLAG and recite the Pledge of Allegiance, doing the same thing at an internal School function like for a Play in the Auditorium, external functions (football, basketball, baseball track & field, etc), being respectful towards your Elders, Teachers and other people.
Adults:
Raise your children adhering to the above principles and values, stop being “a babydaddy” and be a Father, same for “babymama’s”, fly the AMERICAN FLAG at home (and NO OTHER Countries), add your State Flag if desired, Buy AMERICAN made products even if they cost more, buy American Vehicles, don’t forget the things that you were taught as a Child, Respect Our Military and don’t play the Alphabet Scramble trying to be inclusive, pay attention to what the elected politicians are doing, read between the lines of Bull$}{!T and determine what they are REALLY UP TO. (Remember this: George Carlin, “Bi-partisan” means some larger-than-usual deception is being carried out......), either Home School Your Children or BE INVOLVED in what’s going on in the Classroom, Libraries, School Board meetings because right now it’s 90% derogatory what they are up too... attend the skrewl board meetings, bring a friend and gather up a group of parents and then at the meeting split up into individuals and sit around different locations so when your group responds and/or comment on something it looks like a bunch of different people responding to the issue. Be armed with the proper tools to protect Your Spouse, Children, Animals, Property and the Neighborhood, County, State and Country.
CHECK YOUR HISTORY !!! Most of the crap the politicians are trying to do has probably been tried before and failed but they are hoping that nobody will remember the history and the failures. Almost all of the things they are currently doing is straight out of the nazi propaganda playbook translated into English.
And VOTE !!! If you don’t vote then you don’t have any right to bitch about anything the politicians do.
I like to bitch so I Vote !!!
Support the country you live in or live in the country you support.
It's not just this or that politician. Making America America again is a lost cause.
Trump might well improve conditions, but he cannot raise the dead.
I left out one of My pet peeve’s. Stand up remove your hat and either put your right hand over your heart or Salute when the National Anthem is played or sung.
At a public event I’ve been known to reprimand people ndear Me that aren’t doing it.
I have been working on ingraining the Grandson by having Him watch the Opening Ceremonies for INDYCAR/NUTSCAR Races. Now if He’s in the other room and hears it on the TV He comes running into the room I’m in with it on. A music only rendition is a little tougher for Him to recognize but He is getting better at it.
(((PING))) to #7 and #11
