Holy ****. And Here I Was, Thinking Of The Statistical Outlier Meme As A Weirdly Popular Cookie Clicker

Holy ****. And here I was, thinking of the statistical outlier meme as a weirdly popular cookie clicker reference

Y'know, for being large eerie lights in the skies, auroras sure seem as elusive as a needle in a haystack somehow

ayo this meme was in a yt video

What should of been the initial argument in the first place is something along the lines of not having them see shut before they're old enough to understand - that is to say, before they have had The Talk.

Regarding pride flags

Correct me if I am wrong, but pride flags are a way for someone to identify with something they're proud of, right? So for example:

The gay pride flag (Shown above as figure 1) is used by people that are proud to be gay.

Here's the thing: If a flag is a pride flag because the flag represents something people are proud to be, then that means that being proud of a cultural identity would consequently make a flag associated with that culture a pride flag. For example:

The St. Andrews Cross (Shown above as figure 2) is more commonly known as the flag of Scotland. Scotland is a well-known distinct cultural region in the British Isles - a region in Europe - wherein there are the people known as the Scots.

If their efforts at an independence referendum are any indication, the Scots are rather proud of being Scottish. Ergo therefore, since a pride flag represents a concept that some group of people proudly identify as - such as being gay or being Scottish - then that makes the St. Andrews Cross a pride flag, in a way.

Since cultural pride can reasonably be made as an argument for a flag related to that culture to thus be a pride flag, I propose the following:

The American South is populated by a distinct culture known as Dixie culture. This region does (as geographically distinct cultures tend to do) have people that are proud of being Southern - of being Dixie. The thing is, there is a flag associated with Dixie culture:

The Stars and Bars (shown above as figure 3) is commonly known as the first flag of the long-gong Confederate States of America - a breakaway nation whose legacy is nowadays associated with slavery, and with being punctuated by northern Union troops landing in Galveston Bay. This is a historical event that as of the time of writing, occurred exactly 159 years ago to the day.

What is not as well known about the Stars and Bars is that in those 159 years since the end of the Confederacy, the meaning of the flag has shifted. It no longer is the flag of a country long dead. Nowadays, it is a flag representing the Dixie culture of the American South. As mentioned before, there are doubtless people in the South that are proud to be Dixie.

Therefore, if we accept that some people are proud to be of the American South, that the Stars and Bars nowadays represents said region's main distinct cultural identity, and that a flag can be a pride flag because it represents a culture people are proud of, then we reach an inescapable conclusion: The Stars and Bars is a pride flag.
