You must not be Canadian. The whole "I'm proud to be X" would sound a bit rude or ignorant in my circles.

- JabavuAdams 15y agoNo, that's not what I'm getting at. I'm trying to convey a different perspective. For example very few houses or business here have flags. It's mostly a car-dealership / cottage thing. It's actually just jarring to see how many flags are on display in the US even without getting into political sympathies. It's the visual equivalent of someone shouting in public.
- anamax 15y ago> For example very few houses or business here have flags. That's because you know that most of you are "not American" when you're in Canada. Travelling Canadians outside the country tend to sprout flags.
- JabavuAdams 15y agoCanadian flags. In Canada. As a comment on Canadian culture and US culture-shock. More clear?
- nickik 15y agoMy point is that just because somebody sais something like that you should just juge him to be a nazi. Spezially if that someone just hacked some nazis.
