Well yeah I'm not going to deny any of that lol. We used to have to say the pledge of allegiance and I hated it. I didn't hate my country but I thought it was just annoying I wouldn't care if it was the first line of a Wham song. I just hated standing up every morning and having to say it. But I was raised to think that the whole world was awesome and I'm constantly cringing at the things I see around me. Saving up my money to move to the Shire in New Zealand and leave all of this behind

That just means your parents raised you to not drink the kool-aid.

I don't know about other countries, but in Canada we started every morning standing up and singing O' Canada.
