Iam glad to buy few flags if it helps the poor on the street...but not to prove my patriotism!
Nationalism is used as one of the biggest weapons of Mass Distraction by governments down the ages...We see more and more these days!
I saw a line of luxury cars parked near a small road side shop selling the tricolors...as I looked at the hep crowd, i wondered how many of them paid their taxes honestly?!
So true. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer, same here! Valerie
ReplyDeleteI have mixed feelings about independence days -- sometimes I wonder how independent anyone ends up being. But it was good of you to buy the flags.You make excellent points here.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree with your point here! So aptly put

ReplyDeleteSadly, nationalism is being weaponized by more and more nations (and political parties). :(
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a wonderful Independence Day. How do you celebrate?
