I think your nation still fits it fine; it seems progressive enough to me. But then again, I live in the United States, so my standards for "left-leaning" and "progressive" are lower than Hell itself.

And a few others that popped into my mind were Aquaria and Uthossia. There are probably a few others that I'm forgetting, too. I guess my puppet Ingffhaestia also half-counts (the only things it's missing are being MT and having hyper-realistic government website-style factbooks).

Tbh, looks more like simplifying radicalism on your part, because it's very typical of radicalized folk from all parts of the political spectrum to identify everything they slightly disagree with as coming from "them from the other side", i.e. that one big one size fits all category for the enemy. :)

Here’s a more recent one - “calling people out” in signatures in NSG. As in, linking to a post with zero context that another user made in order to “beat” them by showing the rest of NSG how smart they are and how dumb this other person is.

No shit Sherlock. Flags are meant to represent one's country, and ideology/classification are very important in that respect.
Cliche: Bright, cluttered, aneurysm-inducing flag designs that still manage to have nearly zero symbolism or anything meaningful.

Cliche: Incredibly butthurt and self-righteous users who are determined to flaunt how much they hate xyz. There're quite a few on this thread.

Bonus points if their factbooks look like actual government websites.

Apparently, 19.7% (38/193) of all real-life UN recognized nations end with -ia, whereas less than 3.6% (7/193) end in -stan, making -ia 5.4x more common than -stan. The more you know.

On the topic of flags, I'm not the only person who thinks they don't need to have symbolism, right? Like it just seems pretentious to try and tell everyone that their flag must have some sort of symbolism just because some countries irl do it.

design first, think later. always worked for me
anyway no i staunchly disagree. flags should not just be pretty little strips of cloth with funny looking designs, they should have some meaning to them in order to better represent the nation they belong to

but ok yeah sure do whatever tf you want wit your lore. i aint gonna stop you
