Yes, but we never marketed ourselves as a clone of the US. We inherited a lot of those values, but we were never on the nose, or considered exactly the same.
How do you know? If you were to show someone from the UK the flag of this region, featuring a bald eagle against the backdrop of the star-spangled banner, wouldn't you expect it to create the perception of a US-centric group; something we haven't been for a large segment of our history?
Yet, you are interacting with someone who's been a member for over half a decade (albeit, inactive a lot) and who's showing opposition to this flag. Why take that chance and make these decisions based on a hunch? Also, of course, not everyone would be satisfied with it, but confirming consensus is better than making significant changes on a whim.
I agree, that is why I say play it safe while fixing the foundational problems plaguing this region, at least before radically changing the connotations of our theming. You need to be deliberate when making these decisions.
I will not be able to make compromises with everyone and win over everyone. For now, the new flag is in place.
Have you heard of the region of Europe? You might be surprised to learn that most of the people in the region are from Micronesia and the United States. Have you heard of the United Kingdom, yet another large region? You might be surprised to learn that most people in the region are from Canada and the United States. The region and its branding are what define it, not just the flag or name.
To each his own, then.
I don't mean to contradict you; I think your reasoning has some validity, but I have an opinion about the future of the region based on the foundations that have been laid down before. Together with Cynoa, I'll endeavor to create a more welcoming flag for the region. I think the banner is appropriate for the region, so it will stay up.
And you have my full confidence that you'll accomplish that. I'm also indifferent about the banner, as I think it's insignificant to regional perception. I'm also fine with it staying up.
Sincerely, I think it will be difficult for most people to recognize that it is the Capital Building, and it won't stop new people from looking at the region. There isn't anything particularly crazy about it; it just feels right.
On a lighter note, I found that I have unfortunately had not been here for over half a decade, according to my first post in the RMB:
It was 4 years and 173 days ago!
Yeah, I agree with you on that.
Proposal 2:
I based this flag on some renditions promoted by Eco-Paris Reformation and the guidelines supported by the North American Vexillological Association. I can make modifications as necessary. If there are any who oppose this flag, please share your opinion.
The red and blue color scheme uses the same hexadecimal colors used on the current United States flag. This flag also has a .svg version so it can look extra sharp on our front page.
Nonetheless, in the meantime, I will be sleeping. Goodnight everyone!
After taking another look at the flag, it seems that I basically recreated the flag of Laos 🇱🇦
Oh well, that's a problem for tomorrow.
Hong Kong just passed Article 23, its very own national security law, to supplement the Beijing-imposed National Security Law. In addition to further stifling political freedoms, the new law also curbs certain economic freedoms, particularly in relation to due diligence and the gathering of business intelligence by multinational businesses, putting foreign investors in a bind. China is now beginning to actively wage war on Hong Kong's economic prosperity, setting the city down a dark and gloomy path toward true economic socialism and absolutist tyranny and further erasing any meaningful distinction between it and the Mainland.
Gazoo like the flag. Yes, congratulations to Eco-Paris Reformation, Revengi, Cynoa and Sicias!!
Gazoo is frustrated that some nations believe this Union is an “ideological echo chamber”
Exactly! This Union value freedom of speech. Gazoo has fought for this great since Gazoo arrived and was constantly attacked because of Gazoo’s views.
This is a great Union!
Gazoo will not post any remarks just in case this situation arrives to the Gazoo’s court.
Wow! Congratulations. Gazoo didn’t know you were The Commoners Republic of America
The middle logo looks similar to what Iran uses. Gazoo doesn’t like Iran.
Gazoo read that! Hong Kong is getting absorbed by China which is sad. Gazoo wishes Hong Kong returns to the United Kingdom!
Long live Zetox!
South Waterford and Zetox
I appreciate the effort—but the current flag will stand high.
Well, regardless, I'll keep it up for later use. I made some updates to the proposal that resolved the Laos issue, if you care.
Also, I still think the blue needs to be changed on the current flag. I've always despised that blue used by Wikipedia. The US flag does not look like that!
Yep. I haven't used that account in a long time. I try to keep it alive because of nostalgia reasons, though!
I will say we do have to be super careful because a lot of NS mods tend to be left wing biased and might have a problem with free speech that doesn't align with their beliefs. Best not draw any unnessisary mod attention to ourselves.
On a lighter note,
Men are not women
I support Israel
I support Ukraine
I support Tawain
I support Donald Trump
Joe Biden is a Corrupt and Senile Old Man
Tik Tok is a Chinese propaganda machine and should be either sold to a US company or banned.
DEI Is Racist and harmful to society
Free speech at work folks
I've been getting a lot of flak for supporting the Chinese divestment of TikTok on Reddit. I don't see anything bad about the legislation and cannot find bad precedents in the making. At most, maybe you can make an argument about the 5th amendment, but that's kinda on shaky ground.
I find it interesting that the WA found it appropriate that Civil Rights decrease when banning SA of animals. I'm perplexed, to say the least.
The way the WA operates is intriguing. I really hate it sometimes. It truly needs to be fixed, and I will be waiting for the big update that will be released eventually.
An update is coming?
They are now talking about the World Assembly's general reset. Many things are just being repealed and then repeated with very few revisions. I think this site has a lot of potential—but is held back by keeping the status quo. Any updates to the WA would just include starting over from scratch and fixing some of the problems that nations have reported with their statistics.
