 I drive by this property daily. Patriotism is a big deal in the rural part of Texas where I live. They have a few different flags that fly continuously and they always end up tattered and torn. Eventually they will replace it and the cycle continues. I thought of these flags pretty quickly when I read the challenge. I’ll let you decide if there is a metaphor here and what it is. ?

And what an appalling, divisive, abusive, and childish state it is.
Good find for the photo.
