The Spin

Right narrative

This was a big win for Camp Constitution and religious liberty, which for too long has been denied using the establishment clause. Certainly a Christian flag has as much right to be flown as the Pride flag or any other symbol Boston has approved over the years. The hypocritical, woke agenda has been exposed, and from now on Boston's anti-religion efforts should receive more scrutiny.

Left narrative

The Constitution says the government “shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion.” Allowing a religious flag to fly over a government building would clearly violate this. SCOTUS's decision and this settlement set a dangerous precedent for weakening church-state separation, as well as allowing – at least hypothetically – more nefarious symbols to be displayed on public property in the future.
