Prompt Answer: Patriotic

~ Theodora Vanyar

Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you?

Oh, what the fuck is this shit?

You’re asking the person who got in trouble multiple times for not standing up for the Pledge of Allegiance in high school after 9/11.

Fuck. No. I am not patriotic. I think being all “fuck yeah, America is great” is a symptom of brainwashed fuckwits.

Being patriotic to me is laughable. Mockable even.

Fuck America and it’s for-profit bullshit. I’d be an ex-pat any day.

    1. Somewhere with Universal Healthcare. The privatization of healthcare is greed-fueled genocide from the pockets of the rich politicians.
      Also somewhere with seasons. I lived in Florida long enough that I know I’m not meant for tropical climates.
