You wake up in an American classroom, just in time for the pledge of alliegence. You have to get all the words right otherwise you are outed as a foreigner, which means you are a commie or Muslim and that means a trip to Guantanmo Bay.
It wouldn't be a big deal if it wasn't a part of the culture wars in the US. Some people in the US, right wingers and boomer centrists that supported Hillary, are very touchy about these things, almost like it's their religion. Younger leftists started to question it and feel like it's a form of indoctrination. Then like all cultural war related things (another example, merry Christmas) it became politically weaponized and used to divide and conquer. People in the US hate each other over the stupidest things and sometimes they will just suddenly start caring about trivial shit they otherwise wouldn't because of politics. Because of this a lot of people now refuse to discuss politics with others entirely.

I don't discriminate. The anthem, the pledge, an off key rendition of God Bless America at a minor league baseball game. Any time is a good time to do the Kaepernick

Fuck being loyal to a country. What is it going to get me in return? Soon the only useful thing about being born there will be the passport.

Jayden Richardson
I just get all the words right? Is that difficult? I have no interest in moving to the US but I know the pledge just through cultural osmosis, and I know the anthem of Canada and 50 other countries, do minorities in the US have a faulty memory?
This reminds me of that hilarious argument I saw on the news where a CNN reporter was arguing Americans should let in immigrants that CAN'T EVEN SPEAK ENGLISH, and the conservatie guy was going "It's not that hard to learn to speak English". So the CNN journalist goes "THAT'S RACIST!"
HOW? YOU'RE THE ONE BEING RACIST YOU RETARD
Jace Gray

I don't get allthe triggering about this, I'm a pretty strong atheist and saying "under God" is obviously just a way to unify a nation under a cohesive structure.
>oh my atheism, I don't believe in God, I need to cry about this phrasing on the internet now!
Zachary Thomas
Well don't forget it wasn't there from beginning they only added God during Cold War to be different from USSR with their state atheism.
Colton Morales
Well sure, but so what? The actual implemental policies of the US have always protected both freedom of religion and lack thereof, while the USSR's policies demaned implemental policies that were atheistic.
Some people in the US tried to sneak in some God propaganda here and there, but they never had the institutional power to force anyone to think anything, but that was the opposite in the USSR.
If saying "In God we trust" is the worst propaganda you have to endure, just shut the fuck up and be happy.

>a pretty strong atheist If you are amongst others that are participating in group prayer ..do you opt out?
Cameron Bailey
Is there a cute Christian virgin there? Because then I'm all about Jesus, if not, I quietly and respectfully withdraw without being obnoxious.
And that's the thing, if you have an Issue with "IN GOD WE TRUST", you can still stand up and pay homage to the pledge itself, just stay silent on those particular words, no one will even notice.
