Democratic Gov. Jared Polis called the Gadsden flag ‘a proud symbol of the American revolution’ after a a Colorado student was told to remove a patch of the “Don’t Tread on Me” flag from his backpack.
Symbols, Americans are obsessed with symbols and what they represent.
But those symbols are usually empty. Why do you think countries with more heritage don’t fervently defend their symbols so much?
In the United States, branding is everything.
Basically.
Genuinely funny.
Let me guess: it’s left up to states and most if not all of them forbid it
No, it’s federally protected political speech under the First Amendment; states can’t make it illegal.

Based on what I’m reading everywhere and the comparison of how much GDP each country makes, it’s because they are too poor to spend money on defense spending to protect themselves.
I think you’re on the wrong thread, cause what you said makes no sense
