Y’all run out of Confederate flags AND No Step on Snek flags?
and
yuletidexmass tree flags.Join my movement to turn “don’t tread on me” to a bikers first message. We support bike infrastructure and stopping cars from treading on cycling.
You misunderstand. It’s an international sign of distress, or a way to protest your neighbor’s inappropriate yard signs. Isn’t that right, Justice?

Conservatisms ultimate allegiance lies with authoritarianism and dictatorship.
“Don’t desecrate the flag unless we want to”
Same group that threw a hissy fit over flag burning
Isn’t flying the flag upside down against the US Flag code? Then again, so is turning it into clothing IIRC.
These people believe that the law protects but does not bind them.
Also, technically the Flag Code isn’t the law. Not that that occurred to them when people were using it for progressive protests.
I had to laugh when I was talking to some young con at my university who was beside himself that someone…gasp!..burned a flag on campus in protest. He thought whoever burned it should be in prison.
I first asked him - what about the First Amendment? He didn’t GAF - not “that kind” of free speech, that’s too far! I asked him if he knew what the proper disposal of a flag was? I told him the right way was to BURN it, and so what should happen to those people who are disposing of flags under this new law he wanted that banned burning of flags? He didn’t believe me and was aghast that I’d even say such a thing. LOL.
I also asked him what he thought should happen to old shirts, shoes, and every other random item the flag is plastered all over - if someone tosses those in the trash, and they get incinerated, who goes to jail for that? At this point, he was kinda worn out…
They never think their gonzo opinions through to their logical conclusions.
No, but you see how they care about rules in general.
And binds but does not protect anyone else.

No, its an old symbol of distress
So … kneeling during the anthem bad, flying the flag upside-down good?
It’s not a form of right-wing protest. It’s a form of peaceful protest that is currently being used by right-wing morons. There is a difference. Words matter.
Stop assigning ownership of symbols to fleeting groups of imbeciles.
Aren’t these the same fuckers who wailed about respecting the flag?
Babies. Hypocritical babies.
Makes it easier to spot which neighbors to avoid.
Exactly. I’m reminded of that old Far Side cartoon when it comes to dipshit regalia like upside flags.
I have a neighbor directly behind me that has been doing the upside down flag thing for a while now. I think they started doing it after January 6.
These same neighbors also fly a don’t tread flag.
I’m glad I haven’t needed to interact with these dunces.
I hate nation-states as much as the next guy but this is pretty obviously not cool
Does it? Does it really? Who says other than the writer of this article
So, are you insinuating that the author just made it up? That the documentation in their report is falsified? Say what you mean.
Yes. It doesn’t appear the majority of republicans are using this flag at all. There are lots, not enough to call it mainstream though
I mean, someone is flying an upside down Betsy Ross flag in my neighborhood (the one with 13 stars in a circle).
And I live in the middle of a city.
Please tell me it’s not even in one of the 13.
