    MAGA shit, thin blue line, black US flag, etc…

    In case a civil war actually happens, it’s good to know the enemy.

        Especially that punisher skull motif with the Trump hair. That takes the cringe to a new level.

          So far, I’ve only seen one of those. They’re so stupid looking that if it had been by itself, I wouldn’t have been able to tell if it was meant as a joke. They also had one of those “thin blue line” American flag stickers, though, so that cleared it right up.

            It’s also a fundamental misunderstanding of the character. It’s like all they know about him is the name and the logo.

      100%. I’ve recently added the “Grunt Style” tshirts to my red flag catalog.

      What’s wrong with a black US flag? It’s a discrete way to display the flag no?

        I’m Canadian, they use a black flag up here too. I don’t know or care about proper flag usage, I just know if I see a black Canadian flag on someone’s car or clothing that they:

        • hate the left
        • own a gun
        • want “freedom”
        • don’t care about the environment
        • possibly racist?

          At this point in my life I couldn’t care less about the flag code. I just like to be discrete. But as people have pointed out, there are meanings that people are already using it for of which I fundamentally disagree with so….

          Good thing I never got around to it

          Seems like a dogwhistle confederate flag to me.

          I mean, if it’s on clothing, it’s not a flag, it’s a flag image. Ergo, the flag code doesn’t really give a fuck.

      • Ugh. I hate it when people downvote others for asking legitimate questions. I didn’t know it had a special meaning either, so thanks for taking one for the team. 🤷‍♂️
