Modern invented flag peddlers only seek to have us fly flags of the division they seek to generate. I only fly the flag of the country I live in and give side eye to anyone that does otherwise.

Is this a trend? Do you have any other examples? And what division would a world flag generate??

It's just a way of saying that you're too good for your neighbors. That's why it would appeal to liberals and libertarians alike.

Some enjoy their local cultures, customs and sovereignty and do not wish to dissolve into a homogenized nowhere-land of world culture/governance. Some people do not cheer for dystopia.

Continue with the scold though, very convincing argument so far.
