They are the one’s raising and lowering it every day .
Are you starting to understand things a little more.

Well obviously not but they certainly know who they are fighting for because the flag is everywhere . If the flag is meant to be symbol then this is where it does it’s job and serves its ultimate purpose.
If there was never a war then there was never a flag . Is the penny dropping.
Or are you just stupid?
Conservative right wingers often make this nonsensical argument. If they're dying for the flag, why don't we just give one to those wanting to kill for it?
I think our soldiers are risking their lives for a little more than a flag.
Why are conservatives right wingers so keen on having the flag of another country on our flag? Why do they feel so inferior to the English when there are so many Australians to whom they can justifiably feel inferior?
Please show some pride and stop kowtowing to foreign powers. It's embarrassing.
I don't hate them. I feel sorry for most of them.
Poor dumb things.

Actually I don't think that poster really knows what they are talking about in general. Completely lost with his arguments with an attitude that stinks.
I’d post the meme of the crying person with the troll mask if I could be bothered.
And you'd think yourself very clever and witty
I know you’ve got your little schtick about how you’re smarter than everyone. But honestly, there is basically zero chance that you’re more intelligent than the people you are trying to troll on this website.And you'd think yourself very clever and witty
I've never claimed that. You're making stuff up again. In fact I've stated at least a couple of times that no one's ever accused me of being the sharpest tool in the shed or the smartest kid on the block.
Although I do agree with you that being smarter right wing conservatives is setting the bar very, very low.
And I do agree that you are clearly of modest intelligence. It just seems like a weird thing to troll about given your own limitations.
But a symbol is not the concept itself.
You can change the symbol of the concept without changing the concept.
Especially if the concept has evolved so that the symbol no longer represents it accuratley.
I would be interested in knowing how many great nations have existed with one glad from beginning to end. I wouldnt be surprised if it was none. I cant immediatlry think of any.

You and others have successfully established on a couple of other threads that even someone of modest intelligence is likely to be much brighter than your average right wing conservative.
This thread's about our national flag. Do you think we should kowtow to a foreign power or have our own flag?
That question betrays how simple all of these issues appear to you. They are not. You call it “kowtowing” to insist that retention of the Union Jack is purely a humiliating and bad thing, as if there’s no other possible interpretations.
Do you have anything in your trick bag other than shitposting-in-the-form-of-a-question?
I bet you're not even trying to be ironic
Anyway stop being such a grumpy whinger. Repeatedly posting your insecurities is derailing this thread.
Mate, you literally cannot stop bringing up this “gravitate to conservative ideology” thing despite admitting you yourself are not smart. It’s your shortcomings that are on show at the moment, not my insecurities.I bet you're not even trying to be ironic

Doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome is not the definition of brilliance you've been led to believe
Yep 'OOnLY WAaaRR zIMPorten, wEEz DYed for thA FlAg'
Apparently centred thinking types are aligned to these lesser forms of life.
I understand this argument about the brits flag on our flag.
IF we change our flag so it is not there that won't change that the brits are part of our national history post settlement / invasion (whatever term one wants to use).
As for 'kowtowing' - well we do that already and have been since post first nation inception, do it with the yanks too.
UK / US = Super powers that tell us what to do
Aus = They need us but we do what they say.
Blunt reality. Don't like it, but we're a lap dog, a very much needed by them lap dog none the less.

It gives us our own identity, time to cut the apron strings.
You mean the lap dog role?
