But the Republic and Northern island need to fly those flags so you know where you are and whether it's been taken over.

Okay, maybe not, but when I was in America for a few years we decided the ridiculous fixation was so people knew that they hadn't been taken over ... again.

Just wait until you start seeing the new combination flags where it's divided diagnoally and displays two flags communicating opposing and incompatible values. So far I've seen American/Israeli, American/Trump and American/Confederate Battle flags. The irony clearly goes so far over their heads, not to mention how these flags technically violate the official rules for flag display

I do think it's telling that I haven't seen any American/LGBTQ flags for who the designers of these flags cater to
