Okay. So they will just obey whoever claims to represent the flag? Once the communists control what the flag means, then they'll be good, proper communists?
Not to hold anything against soldiers. 90% of people will do as their told. Maybe soldiers might even be twice as likely to resist, so only 80% will do as their told.
Its what it is. As Lord Invictus said, soldiers aren't saints, and its irrational to expect them to be.
But, fear we might soon reach a point where the morality of the soldier might be measured in their willingness to burn the flag, once it's meaning has been thoroughly corrupted.
Its going to be much easier to chamge what the flag means, rather than to change the flag.
