What kind of brainwashing does this?

In my state (NJ), the governor has asked that flags be lowered to half mast to honor those lost to the covid pandemic. A very reasonable and kind of the least you can do if you have a flag pole at your home, business, etc. gesture that requires no effort and is deemed at all times to be a respectful act.

Please someone explain why without fail as I drive around that anyone who has a flag supporting the orange menace does NOT lower their flag to half mast (why they even have such a flag is a subject for another day)? Not one.

Just my informal survey when I get out to get some air in my area, but what on earth could cause someone to suspend their decency for people who did not ask for this disease, did not ask to die, did not state their party affiliation when they went to the hospital nor were they asked...

Seems to me that this happening tells you all you need to know about how nazis came to power...
