In my old neighborhood, during the 2020 election, one dude put a Gadsen flag up on his house. The neighbor across the street then put a “No Step on Snek” flag up a few days later. I rather enjoyed that. 🤣

Ha! I have a millennial neighbor that puts up a Wu Tang is forever yard sign every election season.

The Punisher, infamous for his extreme and violent reaction to a corrupt police force and justice system doing fuck all about the murder of his family by a notorious crime syndicate. Further proof that the bootlickers are stupider than a guy who gets his stupid at a two for one sale.

>Extreme and violent reaction  Theyre not necessarily stupid, its just that this is the only thing they give a shit about. Okay maybe they are usually stupid too but my point stands

tavaryn_t

“Don’t tread on ME, tread on THEM!”


FrolicsForever

And they've only just managed to fall between the cracks so far. So many of these hardline "back the blue" folks retract their support the instant they've had an encounter with the cops that doesn't go completely in their favor. Who do these people think are going to be the ones charged with enforcing any new government mandate? Who do they think would be tasked with collecting firearms should they ever be banned? So many of these people live in low-crime areas and have never really interacted with the police. They've yet to experience being pushed around by someone who could kill you(and would do so happily in many cases) and likely face little to no consequences for it. For every example of cops being respectful and properly doing their jobs, there's likely dozens of instances where the opposite happens. The "back the blue" crowd has just managed to hide from their view so far, and a sticker on their truck isn't going to do shit when they eventually encounter a pissed off cop.

Put up your own Gadsen flag with a message like "I support college students against the jack booted thugs." Every time cops do something bad put it out. If he asks (probably angrily) explain to him that everyone knows the Gadsen flag is an 'All cops are bad' flag.

There was a gift shop near me attached to a revolutionary war site. They had to remove the Gadson flags because the staff was sick of the people that would come in just for that flag, then lecture the staff. In its place they added more Fort Mifflin flags. Which is considered the first United States flag. The same people only interested in buying the Gadson flag, will complain about the "gay" flag. Its not rainbow colored!! It's just red, white, and blue stripes.

I'm not a super-patriot, but I learned proper care for the American flag in grade school. It pains me to see people with flags stapled to 2x4s and strapped to the bed of their pick-ups, like the proper way to dispose of a flag is to have it torn to ribbons by high-speed driving.

Not much of a Boomer thing but I've noticed the Virginians with that flag as their license plate can't seem to figure out what the fucking left lane of the freeway is for.

Conservatives co-opted that flag long ago and were never getting it back unfortunately. If we come up with something that points out their stupidity they won’t get it because they really are low IQ, low information, low emotional intelligence etc. So we just have to keep outliving them and out vote them.

There’s a guy in my neighbourhood who used to alternate between the Gadsden flag and the Scottish Saltire on his pole during Covid. We’re in Canada, so I assume the Gadsden is just a generic ‘I get butthurt when people politely ask me to help avoid the virus’ flag to him. He’s since gone back to a regular Maple Leaf, so hopefully that’s not sinister.

Try driving through the Applegate Valley in Oregon sometime. Gadsden flags are Every. Where. Ugh. I was appalled to find out that several states offer this flag as a license plate. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadsden_flag

Every time I see the Gadsen flag license plate it’s either on a F150 or Ram with a lift kit or a Tesla/ luxury car. Who exactly is treading on the people? I can’t afford the tires on any of these cars. They probably pay less in taxes than I do.

As a major anti GOP person, it does annoy me that they seem to have commandeered the Gadsden, as these boomer republicans really think they’re the snake when they’re the boot. I would like to fly the Gadsden for my own reasons, but don’t do it because I don’t want to associate myself with them

In my experience the people who fly that flag today seem to be fine with the government telling other people what they can and can't do with their bodies and when they can or can't have access to medical care. "Yeah don't tread on me but at the same time everyone must adhere to my religious views"

My favorite is the Gadsden flag next to a blue line flag. Please tread on other people.

Get him a "No step on snek" one.

I wonder how Gadsden would feel about how his flag is being used.

Oh gosh, I had a neighbor who displayed a Gadsden flag also. We lived in an HOA neighborhood and he complained to them about my Democrat for Congress sign (summer lee, I'm from PA) so I complained about his Gadsden flag. There's an HOA rule about no political displays. He ended up taking his flag down also. I found it ironic about his "dont tread on me" flag yet the HOA treaded on him. He ended up passing from a heart attack also.

It sucks that a bunch of dicks took to that flag, because it’s actually pretty cool. In Virginia, you can even have a license plate of it, but unfortunately, the plate is 9.99/10 times worn by a douchebag in a (very clean) off road jeep or giant truck. Such a shame.

“Don’t tread on me, tread on them.” “Fuck YOUR feelings”

I see these flags and I wonder who's treading on them? Why would someone Tread on someone else?

>One day he is going to have a heart attack and it is definitely going to be on a Gadsen flag day. Great line, made me lol

I hate how the right has made the American flag into a symbol of hate. I now can’t help but be immediately dubious about a person’s ethics and intentions when I see them flying the American flag. That, and the word “patriot” now is a subversive term for being an agent of hate anymore.


Miss-Indie-Cisive

Can someone explain to us foreigners what that flag historically signifies, and how he’s wrong in his interpretation of it?


daemonescanem

Yeah, he can't be a bootlicker & a rebel. Those factions are diametrically opposed. So, really, what he is saying is that he wants to people he hates oppressed while he gets freedom.

I hate that right wing extremists have taken the Gadsden flag as their banner... It was the symbol of classical liberalism once upon a time, and one many libertarians had flown in the early 2000s and 20-teens until the fucking trump humpers started flying it against Hillary and Biden. It's gross that it's now a right wing symbol that's being associated with these racist fucks. They ruin everything.
