This is an easy one:

Ethics are for people to get along with each other.

Flags aren’t people. Flags can’t feel hurt. Flags can’t participate in reciprocal ethics.

People aren’t flags. People can feel the trauma of getting stomped. People can participate in reciprocal ethics.

Rule 1: if you wouldn’t like other people infringing on your political expression, don’t infringe on the political expression of others.

If you wouldn’t like people stomping on you, don’t stomp on others.
