One flag means war, and the other means peace. All flags have meanings, even a blank one.
The flag that hangs today, the national flag means WAR. But the flag below means peace. https://johnhenryhill.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/us_civil_flag_of_peacetime__extensive_notes_21.jpg?w=830&h=1732
Rabbit hole really goes back to Abraham Lincoln, when the U.S. incorporated -Feb, 21, 1871 under D.C. got in place after him during Andrew Johnson presidency.
Basically, after Lincoln, the U.S. corporation has been on a rampage to destroy Americans.
This is the American flag most are familiar with: Ohh BTW, the IMF originally owned it since 1944- A new owner(since the 90s) has since taken it back! 😊 And he's of De jure! Americans fighting back against Martine laws.
Ohh btw if you don't want to be a U.S. Citizen- it's super easy! fill out a Ds-11 and for the endorsement code put 09(ALL) as stated in https://fam.state.gov/fam/08fam/08fam050502.html. If you follow coppermoonshine's method you should be okay. It would do ya good to get a passport card as you can use it was a form of driver license. Never say "driving", say "traveling". Someone accusing you of "stealing", say you were "borrowing" (with respect to give back). Change the words, changes your world.

lol that's on the moon? That's declaring that the US government will go to war for that territory and defend it.
Though, I think they'll have a hard time if super strong aliens pop out and tear through the astronaut's suit.
