    It’s a two way street. I’m not a veteran but I do not care if my political opponent displays an inverted flag. It’s meant to be a signal of recognition of distress. It’s not even necessarily unpatriotic.

      I’m a veteran. I also give zero fucks, but it’s like we’re just ceding that ground. I care about an inverted flag like the satanic temple wants baphomet statues in middle schools - not at all but they’ll do it just to make a fucking point.
