I’ve seen videos of kids just quietly sitting out the pledge and getting shoved out of their chair by other kids for it and the teacher just watches, can’t say I blame anyone for just going along with it.
Okay but why the Flag? Wouldn’t be the Constitution better? (I’m from Europe and actual curios because I thought that was more a stereotype than something people really do)
"I pledge allegiance
To the flag
Of the United States of America…"
Yeah, kids still do this in schools across the US.
My wife is an elementary school teacher and she lets her students choose whether they want to participate or not each day.
Most kids do it because they are following along with the rest, but some do actually sit out during the pledge

WTF

Apparently, it’s because nobody buys constitutions. But you can sell them flags.
That would make much more sense, allegiance to a flag is very silly. I’ve heard many reasons for why that started and all of them are very dumb.
No no no it’s like this: "I pledge al-leg-iance to the flag
Of theuni-ted States Ofamerica"
