I’m pretty sure there are plenty countries where burning is a huge offense.

Burning the US flag except to dispose of it is considered offensive in the US as well.

I mean, the "burn the flag" people do want to dispose of it

I thought flags were made of non-flammable materials to prevent people from burning them.

No that's stupid. There aren't specific materials it's made of lol. It's that the colors were specifically designed by Lincoln to prevent people from desecrating it

But it's not illegal.

You only burn to dispose of a tattered flag, burning an intact flag is offensive just like everywhere else
