    I've never heard her speak or read her words. I have read yours though. It is you who is the hater.

    Spot on.

    If they want to make women's soccer more popular, they should change the uniforms to this and would it hurt to introduce push-up bras and make-up? Make it more appealing to men.

    Those ratings did not occur by accident..... um.... I wonder what was the secret sauce....

    You are arguing that wiping your ass with the flag is not dissing the flag.

    That's dishonest. You actually know better.

    You have not done that. If you had you would do it again.
    You are obviously unable to find a single example of hate in any of my posts.

    Your choice. I enjoy reading your posts. Especially when you post substantive responsive replies to my posts.

    Democratic patriotism has fallen into a sinkhole and it is a consequence of left wing propaganda, though not always home grown.. https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/gallup-democrats-drive-u-s-patriotism-plunge/

    Every human being who cares about individual liberty and fears Big Bad Government, that is almost all of us, should love America, the American Revolution, the Founding Fathers of America, and the COTUS, because they represent the last best hope for humanity in a world where totalitarianism and mass extermination schemes are common and sold as progress, and where only one revolution against tyranny has has ever been successful.

    No one should love any government including the USG or any leader of government.
    Liking one might be appropriate on very rare occasions.

    I don't think some of them like Rapinoe are trying to appeal to men.

    Ah, there's the alleged trampling. The video definitely doesn't support the headline, but that's no surprise. Stories like this are hype- and hate-inducing fake news and propaganda. It's the kind of stuff we got in spades in 2015-2016 to help Trump win the election, and we should expect a lot again this year and next accordingly.

    Totally.

    Ridiculously mischaracterized RW BS (like the misleading headline in the OP link) are going to be the Reddit RW Troll Squad's preferred method of disseminating misinformation (aimed at the gullible) in 2020.

    And, as to the OP, the "narrative" is utterly ludicrous.

    Flags only represent what they are supposed to stand for if they actually do … but they ALWAYS stand for what they actually are. The American flag stands for the treachery it commits world-wide and the threat it represents to world peace. That is what people think of when they see it. At best the American flag is a useful dish-rag ... at worst it is something to wipe your bum-crack after a dump. And don't blame it on Trump or Hillary. True, they are "the bad guys" today but the U.S. has been the bad guy for generations so telling yourself everything was fine until they came along is ridiculous.

    If you want people to see something good in the American flag then you’ll have to make sure that the U.S. changes its course and begins to represent something good for a change. Simple to do - Or not?
