Today is Independence Day in Lithuania. You are legally obligated to hoist the national flag outside your home or else you will get fined.
no way
whip out that flag, Jonas
You can't celebrate your independence unless you fought for it in a war, sorry.

>>219291978who goes around and checks, government employees or do they do seasonal contracts?
>>219292076The police obviously
>>219292084you must have very low rates of crime.
>>219291978why are baltoids like this?
Is that a vexatious thing to make the Russians leave?
Just hoist the damn flag Zbigniew Vladimirov
>>219292194Artificial patriotism is cringe, maybe our government should put more effort into making Vasario 16 not resemble a funeral for once. Maybe then we wouldn't need a law like that
>>219291978That's nazism
>>219292018it's not a real celebration like our independence day, it's more like a north korean military parade, but instead of reminding everyone they have a military they show everyone that they have an "independent country"
>>219291978Kek that's retardedNow I care even less if you get invaded
>>219292353When you think about it it’s kind of funny. They don’t even have proper militaries, their armies and air forces aren’t bigger than a few Russian brigades. These countries feel artificial, like they’re not truly independent. They only function as proxies for bigger powers, otherwise they’d get taken over

>>219292043I thought that it isn't enforced
>>219291978No. We had the opposite. During ww2 it was forbidden to dance. In one instance the police shut down an illegal dancing party and it became a scuffle and the police shot an illegal dancer.
Flags should be everywhere 24/7/365 not on special occassions only.
