you know what the quickest way is to make a kid resent their country? force meaningless ceremony on them every day.
i was forced to say the pledge of allegiance every day up until high school. it was a bit of a shock to not be forced to say it my freshman year. I can’t imagine how bad it would be to be forced to say the pledge and sing the anthem every day. especially if you get some of those teachers who have a flagpole stuck up their asses that they will give some sort of administrative punishment if you sang the magical flag song wrong. I think I’d tell my parents I was just going to live in detention all year.
We definitely had to do the same thing as well. It’s been 2 decades since I graduated high school (I hate that fact…) and I can’t remember if it ended in high school completely, or if we had to at least stand while it played.
