Hello, Ivan.  How are things in South Georgia?  It's great to see you representing your country here on chess.com.  In fact, I think you might be the only person from South Georgia I've talked with on the internet, ever!  Amazing!

I remember him being from the Western Sahara not too long a ago. Smile

Some very nice Flags are being posted here.

Let me also add " Long Live St Pierre & Miquelon ! " ( and their beautiful flag too of course ).

"Social realities" are nothing more then a shared hallucination.  We all agree that this is how things are, and that is how things are, a self fulfilling prophecy.  We must stop fetishcizing these cloth idols and break the loop of insanity.  Flags only practical purpose was to keep troops from slaughtering friendlies on a medieval battle field.  It's time to evolve.  They divide us more than bring us together.  Do not pledge allegiance.  I still do not like flags.

Okay, just send me a private message and I'll get you my banking information so you can transfer all your totally imaginary "money" into my account.  You won't mind...after all, it's all totally fake!  Or maybe I'll just steal it...after all, you won't have any recourse to the mass hallucination which is the "justice system."

And why should you assume that we want to be "brought together."  A lot of people benefit from war and conflict, and since social realities are all fake, there's really no "us" to be mutually benefited when war ends...we're not even having this conversation!  My mind!

;)  Right, I'm just giving you a hard time...don't take it seriously.  As a Christian I actually agree with most of what you're saying...but that's because I agree that a lot of social realities are evil, not that they aren't real.  Nation States are real...evil, maybe...but real.

To me flags represent the way each group of people ( call it a country if you like) choose to govern themselves. Humans need an identity, it's what makes us human after all. I'll never understand this desire to blend everybody together into one giant grey blob of humanity and call it utopia. Some may want monarchy others democracy others may actually (gag) seek socialism. Anyway this whole Kum -by -ah idea that we're all one big happy family is the hallucination. I was born and live in the USA but I am extremely unhappy with the way my country is going so I choose to play under the flag of my ancestors. At least for 3.5 more years.

yeah it is called a country.  sorry dude but this "need for an identity" is not what makes us human.  "irish" americans are fun.

I was being sarcastic with country thing, dude.

And what is the first thing you say to someone you meet? Hi I'm denner90 and you are? Im from so and so where are you from blah blah blah. You identify youself therefore placing yourself in a group and region and all the information that goes with it. If we didn't have identity we might as well be animals, well some of us still are but that is a different forum topic.

Irish Americans can be fun indeed! And from where do you draw that conclusion? From your past experience with others who identified themselves as such, yes?

ilikeflags

yeah cuz animals aren't identified by where they're from either.  i'm an irish american snake or monster.  take your pick.
