(35,383 posts)not because it's just a nice historical flag,
nor because a handful of skinheads used it, as one of many flags, and we define others by the worst among them,
but because "we" decided that since a few skinheads used it that must be its One True Eternal Meaning and as a result everybody who has ever used it, however they may have deluded themselves at the time, is automatically both a racist and inferior to us
and because he really likes tweaking "our" noses.
