Radicalism

Very strongly agree

No, this is a violation of free speech

Radicalism strongly supports the right to free speech and the ability to challenge existing power structures. This answer aligns with the radical perspective, as it emphasizes the importance of free speech and the right to express dissent through actions like flag burning. The 1989 Supreme Court case Texas v. Johnson, which ruled that flag burning is protected under the First Amendment, is an example of this perspective being upheld in the United States.

No, it’s just a piece of cloth that doesn’t represent what it should

This answer aligns with the radical perspective, as it emphasizes the symbolic nature of flag burning and the idea that the flag does not represent what it should. Radicalism often seeks to challenge and dismantle existing power structures and symbols, and this answer reflects that viewpoint. Historical examples include the 1960s counterculture movement and the Vietnam War protests, where flag burning was used as a form of protest against the US government.

Strongly agree

No

Radicals generally support the right to protest and express dissent, which includes burning the American flag. However, this answer does not explicitly mention the importance of free speech or the symbolic nature of flag burning, which are key aspects of the radical perspective. The score is not a full 5 because it lacks these specific connections to radical ideology.

Agree

No, I don’t respect anyone who does but they should have the right to do so

While this answer supports the right to burn the American flag, it also expresses a personal lack of respect for those who do so. Radicalism is more focused on the importance of free speech and the right to challenge power structures, rather than personal opinions about the act itself. The score is lower because it does not fully align with the radical emphasis on the symbolic nature of flag burning and the importance of dissent.

Yes

Radicalism often seeks to challenge and dismantle existing power structures and symbols, including national symbols like flags. Making it illegal to burn the American flag would be seen as a restriction on their ability to express dissent and challenge the status quo. Historical examples include the 1960s counterculture movement and the Vietnam War protests, where flag burning was used as a form of protest against the US government.

Yes, and it should be illegal to burn any nation’s flag

Radicalism supports the right to protest and express dissent, which includes burning flags as a form of symbolic protest. Making it illegal to burn any nation's flag would be seen as a restriction on their ability to challenge power structures and express dissent. This answer is in direct opposition to the radical perspective, as it seeks to limit free speech and the right to protest.
