@[smendler:37634] You misinterpret by taking it out of context. The next line is about a much earlier time of primitive princes and kings. Christmas was not celebrated until the 4th century. The Palestinian flag not created until 1964. The more primal interpretation of the colors is that green represents Nature, and the red spattered upon it is the blood of the people and animals who were being forced into the slavery of agriculture for meat production (hence why the dream of a garden of eden is long forgotten, tainted by the first civilization that would oppress society with laws, patriarchy, and forcing meat eating upon everyone). It's quite anarchist in nature and indeed exposes the world's first fascist propagandists to boot, the ones who practically invented hate, with more words to demonize people than any other (and prior to any other language doing so, something that spread culturally). |
