You are free to express socialistic, bitter anti-American views - however, I have never seen and currently do not see any such trivial window flags on cars here. I have lived in and near NY City my entire life, and I am well over 50 years of age. The one exception of flags on cars was after 9/11 when the WTC towers were attacked and this city bore the full brunt of the destruction. People proudly displayed American flags
everywhere, including on their vehicles, out of frustration and grief.
You can blame America for many things, but not for this apparent penchant for trite flags by those in your country.
