Should we sit during the national anthem in protest? (www.reddit.com)

I’ll be attending several baseball games in the near future and don’t know the best way to react to the national anthem being played. I can’t decide if I should sit in protest or stand in defiance.

Sit.

I haven't stood for that propaganda in probably 15 years.

I haven't gotten outta my seat for that PoS in decades. Why would I start now? 😅😶

My personal take is to stand. The main reason is that sitting doesn't actually change anyone's mind, and the MAGoos can use it to say we're "un-American."

Enjoy the game and protest when it can do some good.
