The EU is literally doing colonialism in Africa today.

modern european colonialism doesn't have much to do with god or promised land anymore, and even then a british or a french flag would be more appropriate imo

Brits and the French are just the most well known colonialists. Meanwhile, modern european colonialism is a direct extension of the promised land colonialism. The EU flag is just a convenient way to indicate Europe as a whole.
