This is a conversation about history. It doesn’t include modern member states because they were not member states when the modern European colonization of Africa first occurred.

therefore,

EU flag doesn’t fit here because it’s a symbol that’s used nowadays to represent 27 countries, not just colonisers. that’s why I initially said it was anachronistic

and there are still many eu member states that can hardly be accused of directly engaging in modern colonialism, I’m simply saying we shouldn’t lump them all together

modern european colonialism doesn’t have much to do with god or promised land anymore, and even then a british or a french flag would be more appropriate imo

putting an eu flag on this feels anachronistic

the path it will actually take:

This website is satire and best viewed with a healthy dose of skepticism and a strong sense of humor.
