A nation can best be defined by the way it portrays itself abroad. The symbols and values a country chooses to share with the world are ways to determine what that country views as core to its character, and what values dominate at home.
Rome’s eagle standards and use of the phrase Senatus Populasque Romanus denoted the Republic’s military control across the known world, and its deference to the Senate and Roman people. The French revolutionaries who mustered under the tricolor flag fought for liberty, equality, and fraternity.
Modern America, meanwhile, is represented by symbols promoting sexually deviant behavior and race-based grievance politics.
As proof, a recent decision by the US Men’s Soccer Team to ditch the Stars and Stripes in favor of the LGBT pride flag shows that alphabet ideology has unfortunately become dominant in America.
Per Reuters, team coach Gregg Berhalter said, “When we are on the world stage and when we are in a venue like Qatar, it is important to bring awareness to these issues and that is what ‘Be the Change’ is about.”
“Be the Change” is a US Men’s Soccer’s initiative created in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death explicitly to push leftist policy.
Berhalter continued, “It is not just stateside that we want to bring attention to social issues, it is also abroad. We recognize that Qatar has made strides and there has been a ton of progress but there’s some work still to do.”
U.S. Soccer spokesman Neil Buethe added, “As part of our approach for any match or event, we include rainbow branding to support and embrace the LGBTQ community, as well as to promote a spirit of inclusiveness and welcoming to all fans across the globe.”
LGBT activists often argue that America is a cesspit of virulent anti-gay and transgender violence, and that sexual minority groups compose an oppressed minority. But how can one argue the alphabet mob isn’t representative of mainstream accepted American values when the actual symbol of the country is deposed in favor of LGBT iconography?
It isn’t just sports that has been forced to bend the knee to sexual deviancy.
Last year, Secretary of State Antony Blinken authorized U.S. embassies to fly the rainbow pride flag alongside the Stars and Stripes. June 2021 also marked the first time the “progress flag,” an abomination against both morality and aesthetics, was flown outside the State Department in D.C.
Blinken’s move to allow the pride flag to be flown reversed a Trump era policy allowing only the American flag to fly on embassy flagpoles.
But the leftist poison was there even during Trump’s tenure, and many embassies were already skirting the rule against displaying other symbols before Blinken revoked the order.
The American embassy in Seoul, South Korea, had a massive pride flag displayed alongside a Black Lives Matter banner. Only after the Trump State Department explicitly told embassy staff they had to take it down did they relent.
So, LGBT causes have the support of private institutions in the form of professional sports, and public institutions in the form of the federal government. Where is this font of virulent oppression against the poor alphabet people coming from?
If anything, it seems like those who aren’t onboard with the LGBT agenda are more at risk for oppression than some gay guy in New York.
NBC News reported that former "Full House" star Candace Cameron Bure “faces backlash from celebrities and LGBTQ influencers following her recent comments that she will prioritize portraying "traditional marriage" in her new TV project.”
God forbid one show focus on a man and a woman getting married.
There lies the crux of the leftist lie of oppression, human nature abhors a bully. Therefore, victims have built in social cachet.
Members of the LGBT community formerly faced social persecution, but those days are long gone. At the micro-level, there undoubtably exists prejudice against these groups, but at the macro-level, the LGBT agenda has never been stronger.
Compared to the situation of LGBT people in the Middle East, especially in Qatar where the US Men’s team is currently virtue signaling leftist propaganda, things are pretty good for the gays in America.
After all, their banners adorn all the walls.
