When did it become funny to be sarcastically patriotic?

I see guys with huge American flags on their clothing, red, white and blue bandanas, ect. They are trying to be funny but I don't think this great nation should be the butt of the joke.

It's embracing American sensationalism

I love it, but the answer is soccer

Hipsters like soccer and the USMNT. Dressing up like Uncle Sam and screaming "frick YOU MEXICAN POORS" is totally normal behavior for them during a big friendly or tournament.

Of course, these same people are aghast that you'd consider voting GOP or eating at such a shitlord institution as Chickfila, but I'm just telling you about the hypocrisy, I can't explain it.

I can't STAND it when people sarcastically say "Murica."

Personally I'm not about wearing clothes with the American flag, it's actually disrespectful to use it as a garment of clothing. But it seems like one of those rules nobody cares about so it's not really frowned upon.

I wear a bandana like this while riding quite often.



And if you don't think I'm a true patriot and I'm doing it as a joke then you can go frick yourself.

I've begun to notice this in advertising more than anything else.

The Hardys commercial on the aircraft carrier and Budweiser changing label to America immediately come to mind.

I believe the rule is against using an actual flag as clothing, not against having clothing made to look like the flag.

I don't think the flag code looks fondly upon using Old Glory during criminal activities

I'll keep that in mind if I'm ever involved in any criminal activity.
