00:01What does the American flag symbolize to you?

00:05Depending on how the United States feels about you

00:08will depend on how you feel about the flag.

00:12I think of trauma.

00:16The values that we want this to stand for feel far from us right now.

00:21If I'm on Grindr and I see an American flag emoji in someone's bio,
