Best US flag is the 48 star flag absolutely.

Look at its amazing symmetrical beauty. Look at it! We need to get rid of 4 states and grant DC and Puerto Rico statehood to go back to it.

Vermont was an independent Republic for longer than Texas and California put together. The Republic of West Florida was independent for longer than California.

We should have kept adding new stripes to the flag with new states till at least 30 or so

I think it is a good flag as far as flags go.

Where we're going, we don't need flags to see.

Looks like the Mississippi state flag is really going to be changed.

What's going to happen is that when the Governor signs the bill, Mississippi will cease to have any official flag.

After that a commission will come up with a new flag, which will be voted on by the people at the next election.

If the people vote down the choice of the commission, they'll go back and figure out another one, and present that one for voter approval at the next election.

This could go on for years!

Just more flags and emblems that suffer from being far too busy, even if the individual elements and colors are acceptable.



e: the first one in particular, there's just no coherence at all.

That's why my favorite flag is the 48 star US flag. It's basically perfect. I'm completely serious.

Simple, coherent, symmetrical, powerful, honest.

I think the ones that are actually grids (54, 60, 63, 66, 70) are pretty ugly; I wonder if anyone else agrees. I can't put my finger on why, but I vastly prefer the other ones, where the stars aren't directly on top of each other.

You are a crazy person, the 48 star flag is the best the US ever had. I want DC and PR statehood but also the abolition of 4 other states so we can go back to that.

You people are thinking about what you like looking at high-res pictures on your computers or phones. You're not thinking about how a flag would look from a ways off, limp, hanging off a flag pole. The owl design is absolutely the best looking but it wouldn't make the best practical flag.

Consider how popular soviet kitsch is in the US. Everyone vaguely non-right knows the soviet anthem's tune. Half the internet has earnest or "ironic" sickles and hammers plastered over their personas. People bravely post about how leftist they are with comedy gangtags of the dude that genocided my wife's family on in these here forums. Is it really weird that other people do the same with equally-foreign symbols?

This is the flag of the city of Makiivka in eastern Ukraine. Geographically it's sort of the Fort Worth to Donetsk's Dallas.



The flag in the upper left is the flag of the Donetsk region. The black star stands for coal. The gold star represents metallurgy. The green star is for natural beauty. The white star represents spirituality.
