No worries archer - we are used to hearing "they all look the same" by now whether applied to ourselves or some other group deemed inferior. Republicans have been pointing out the fallacy of such stereotyping by Democrats for a couple centuries now - we really don't expect any change in their behavior at this point, but we keep on hoping.
Care to take a stab at explaining why describing the flag under discussion as a fundamental transformation of Old Glory isn't accurate? Or to chime in with your own ruminations on why it is? Discussing the topic instead of seeking to follow the "Rules for Radicals" playbook might prevent so transparently highlighting the illiberal stereotyping tendacies you have developed.

Good one
It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy

I'm on my own side, most times I tend to think the rest of y'all are kinda being knuckleheads.

And still no one willing to discuss why the flag being discussed isn't a fundamental transformation of the union's flag - which isn't all that surprising when you think about it given that there is simply no reasoned response which could hope to accomplish that goal.
Amazing how those who claim to be seeking civil discourse on the issues routinely ignore any attempts at discussion, preferring to engage in drive by posting instead.
Yep, that should about do it. I believe that two things have been accomplished at this point. The first being that the Obama Flag has been established as a physical expression of the fundamental transformation of the union that one side is seeking and the other being that despite all the feigned outrage in the media, there are very few who are interested in having a civil discourse on any topic political.
