>>204571715Their national flag is a christcucked flag.
>>204573876You reminded me of an exchange between one agnostic Greek acquaintance of mine (he hated clerical Greek states in general) and a Moslem Pontic Greek from Türkey, where he tried to persuade him that this is their national symbol predating it.But upon checking:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_crossYou might be right.
