I'm thinking things like flagpoles in the yard.

Like you waste however much money and resources to keep your non-native grass around and they drop in a 60 foot pole into it to be able to fly an American flag and flag for whatever shitty college you went to.

What other things are there?

    This list is so fucking long lol. I will put just a few.

    • Flying stealth bombers over sporting events
    • Single family housing zoning laws
    • Two party system

      The stealth bombers is a really good one, same with like playing the anthem or whatever before sporting events.

        I loved that they sang the anthem and America The Beautiful before the Superbowl. That's not weird at all

            I was watching with some lib friends, some of whom I am trying to radicalize slowly, and I turned to them and was like "ok, I know we're used to that, but can we take a step back and acknowledge how bizarre that actually is?" And all I could get from them was "I mean, I guess so, but it's not really THAT weird, this is a big important game".

            American Civil Religion is so tough to get people to be critical of

                The first time I saw this was when I truly realized satire is dead (if it was ever really alive).

                It's indistinguishable from something I would laugh at on The Onion.
