It really is. I get the tradition of it because we’ve done it for 70+ years, but it’s not like we say the pledge or sing the national anthem before we start our jobs every morning.

A political song? It’s the national anthem, you nihilistic frickwad.

What is the matter with some of you people? No wonder you get so mad when people criticize your professional sports leagues or corporate commercials. Those are your spiritual replacements for any feeling of nation. Weird to be such an empty person, but you do you I guess.

You’ve mistaken anger for being flabbergasted, which I absolutely am.

I seriously don’t understand the point of holding this nation together if the people in it have no real interest in being part of it and take no pride in it.

Society can surely go on after the initial rough transient of splitting it up.

I kind of agree. I’m not sure we’d all enjoy how society will go on, but so be it I guess.

Yep yep yep

But when you say this, the people who call you a white supremacist for reading to your kids or having a 401k start tripping over themselves to tell you about how much there is that binds us.

I love the line being drawn in the sand by the Obama leftists. The anthem is now “political” because it has pro-American vibes to it, and BLM and the left have convinced these guys that America is bad. They are the new sheeple.

I guess its just weird to me people are upset when nobody really acts 'respectful' during the anthem anyways. I mean I have never in my entire life watched sports with a group of people at someone's house and they stood up for the anthem. Tons of people at the game leave their hats on, don't stand, etc.

im far from a pro-obama leftist.

why are we the only nation that feels the need to play the anthem before non-international sporting events?
