When it comes to nationalism, I say fuck all flags and anthems, we should be free and united as humans.

United World....what a concept!

Agreed--and amended, thus:

Let them keep their flags and anthems, if it pleases them--so long as they are not used as instruments of division, of perpetuating separating identifications. If attachment to identification is not there, they're just toys.

But you'd have to teach masses of people to not be attached to identities. Good luck with that!

Yes, we are all humans but the side of the world makes impossible to be one culture / language and to have common traditions

When you concider all the flags of the world and realize each flag says for those people or governments this is ours, we are better than you, we took it through blood shed and we will defend it, we don’t seem like such an advanced civilization. Being able to blow things up better does not equal more civilized!

I have been this route before so all I have to say is mmmmmhhhh.. no

totally agree. Flags and anthems divide us - do not bring us together.

The fact is most people rejects the togetherness you mention

I've often wondered why people put their country before all else.

Indoctrination?

@DUCHESSA Yes, I suppose so. Sure causes a lot of trouble.

Hey Beaverton.. We’ve a long (long) way to go, first. Like a united language ..but I don’t care to learn French.. Actually, we appear to be heading in the same direction, due to technology, mutual desires and shared needs.

The key word in your proclamation being should, rarely do humans do ‘what they should.’ If further unification appears to be in our personal best interests, we’ll likely continue in that direction. But what’s always confused and troubled me is the multitude of bloody battles with ‘neighboring nations,’ people sharing the closest of genetics, yet incapable of living side by side… Yes, a very long way to go ~

I couldn't agree more

I agree. My Conservative, Gadsden-flag-flying dad has boycotted the NFL, and others in the famdamily are all upset about the ‘insult to our troops’. Useless to talk to them about it. I love ‘em but politics & religion are taboo subjects.

I echo that sentiment.
