As for the actual flag, ever since it's been co-opted by the Cronulla riot fuckheads, Nazis, One Nation Neanderthals, racists and bogans foaming at the mouth about immigrants it's become a national embarrassment.
Ever wonder why you barely ever see people in the crowds at the cricket, league, football or any other sporting event waving it?? Have a good hard look at a crowd at the socceroos or the cricket next time it's one. You'll be lucky to see 2 or 3.
Rightly or wrongly there's a reason for that. No bastard wants to be lumped in with those pieces of shit.
