One nation, indivisible — they were offended by the flag and forgot the oath™

The Pledge, read for what it actually says. The loudest voices called the kneeling a desecration of the flag — while missing that the flag is the symbol and the sentence is the oath: one nation, under God, indivisible. You can't swear indivisible and then run the whole play on dividing the nation in two. And the sentence doesn't stop there — it closes with liberty and justice for all: not for some, not for the donors, not for the base. The real desecration isn't a bent knee; it's breaking the word indivisible on purpose, every day, for votes — and hollowing out for all while saluting the flag that stands for it. Be offended by the oath they violated, not the cloth someone knelt in front of. Aimed party-blind at anyone who wields the Pledge as a cudgel while breaking its plainest promise. Kin: They won't let you choose gray, the Record Is the Arbiter (read the text, not the flag-waving around it), Meta the Cite. (His coin — party-blind, the Pledge text is real; machine's read, refine to his.)
