Honestly, I think each of us should just embrace the whole new Foucaultian world and just redefine everything to mean whatever the hell we want it to mean.

I mean, it's certainly not going to make our communications with each other any worse.

I'm starting Saturday, 6/1. From then on, the rainbow shall be a symbol of God's enduring promise not to wipe out humanity. Unless that meaning's been done already.

Because the once crazy nutbag citizens who complained about shit like that are now the crazy nutbag elected people who can do something about it.

Also, IN before Belem shows up to tell you not to move to California so he can keep all of the insane people to himself.

Yes flags representing imaginary places are stupid and certainly don’t need to be flown in front of government buildings

Same reason Civil War statues were torn down decades later. Most of society moves in a positive direction and realize not all history should be repeated. There always some stragglers though who love the "we've always had done it that way"
