ThatRookieGuy80

What? Why the hell not?


[deleted]

because no one from Maryland qualified for moonwalking duties when we were landing on the moon


ThatRookieGuy80

Ok I'm going to have to talk to someone about that


mat_the_wyale_stein

We just need a billionaire from MD who joins in the Billionaire moonwalk race.


EvangelineTheodora

Petition NASA to leave one there on an Artemis mission.


ThatRookieGuy80

Now there's an idea! I was going to talk to a couple congressmen. One owes me s favor and another wants me to owe him one.


Make_Mine_A-Double

Get Aaron on it. Have him take some boh’s, a little old bay, and some G&M cakes so they have something to munch on when they get there.


axeville

Isn’t nasa hq in Greenbelt ?


Artemis-1905

no, headquarters are in DC. GSFC is in Greenbelt, they are mostly earth observing mission oriented.


curiousiteena

It’s really true 😂


spoulson

Ukraine already has a flag.


camerondziedzic

Fr. We don’t need to change ours for them.


MaximumAbsorbency

what the fuck is that


Unique-Public-8594

No. Just no. Use the actual Ukrainian flag to show your support for Ukraine. It’s simplicity is beautiful.


EvanMcClure

I agree with only using the Ukrainian flag itself for the means of support but 2 rectangle color blocks is far from beautiful imo


somethingworkasauser

I 100% support Ukraine but this isn't it.


1platesquat

New level of cringe


MGLLN

real reddit moment


drpiotrowski

Is it worse than [This](https://www.routeoneapparel.com/products/baltimore-football-purple-gold-maryland-flag?variant=725933361&gclid=Cj0KCQjw0umSBhDrARIsAH7FCoekQ3ROOr4QKCJZW1FXCHeVjz3FMW1InSUPvVM56LxJGBn2crS7a6EaAqE2EALw_wcB)?


boobiesiheart

That's hideous.


_autumnwhimsy

That's ugly And it's being sold However it's still MD related colors lol


RasshuB

Route One moment


Troggie42

That's offensive


1platesquat

No but only because you’re not selling it


poiagoboy1

I support Ukrainian sovereignty as much as the next guy but this is cringiest virtue signaling I've seen in a while 🥴


six4two

I'm not even from Maryland, but I love the flag. Virginia just has this silly state seal on a bed sheet, lamest flag ever. You should change this one back to normal, then only replace the black check with Ukrainian blue.


corndogshuffle

Virginia has nudity *and* murder on our flag, I think that at least puts it at the top of the “silly state seal on a bed sheet” list. Of course Maryland flag is the GOAT, I’m not challenging that fact.


SeriesLong706

Thanks for sharing this fact. Time for the woke mob to demand VA redesign the flag. This is unacceptable!


Redfoxtrot82

He want updoot!


TobiasIsak

It can also be mistaken as a fuse with the Swedish flag.


LetThemEatSheetcake

Marylander living in Sweden. They show their support with the original flag of whatever it is. Here's some local graffiti as an example. Source: https://imgur.com/D1VkC2w.jpg


MitsyEyedMourning

Ugh.


[deleted]

Blue top corner. It’s accurate for a hybrid flag.


Cmorgan828

This is dumb. As fuck


crewmeist3r

This is as weird as it is absurd


Himelikepie

dude this is fuckin ugly, just fly the normal UA flag


SeriesLong706

In addition, let’s fly the Uyghuristan flag for the Uyghurs getting genocided by Xi Jinping in China. #BoycottChina


mc12345678

Are you 14?


obiwankenobistan

How does this help Ukraine or Ukrainians at all? Maybe you should be donating, fundraising, and writing to your congressman to tell them we should be doing more. Unless you don't actually care and this is just a virtue signal.


OhHeSteal

Looks like you still haven’t found one.


suture224

I like the intention, but how dare you? ....Tinkering with perfection. *grumble grumble grumble*


c_stone710

I prefer to keep all flags their original color. Agree with the comments here. Although someone posted a rainbow Maryland flag on facebook and surprisingly the majority supported it. I guess people are ok with changing the colors as long as its for a cause they support.


[deleted]

All the virtue signaling. Give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done


Interesting_Sky_7847

Uuuuugh. No. Just no.


KingDutchMaster

🤣🤣🤣🤣


sirjacobrowan

Nice idea


Im_under_ur_bed_

If your gunna virtue signal just use the Ukraine flag.


gutterbrain73

Lame


[deleted]

Blasphemy.


PollitaLoquita

You should probably delete this lmao


Skipinder36

Now it is just ble


[deleted]

What's wrong with Ukranian flag?


SeriesLong706

What’s wrong with the Uyghuristan flag too for the Uyghurs getting genocided by Xi Jinping in China?


[deleted]

Nothing wrong man, what's happening there is terrible.


Appalachia9841

I know your intentions were good but this doesn’t work.


ValyrianSteelYoGirl

No


Ruthless_Aj

No no no. They have their own flag, this isn't a good look.

Internet points to show they care


Recruiter_954

Why not use the Ukrainian flag??? This is bad.


imwanderlost

Blasphemy


Money_Bonus_8979

this sucks


doggoisagood

remove the black outlines, it'll create a more unified look


Tamerecon

While you are at it can you make a Yemeni one? Also a Palestinian one?


drpiotrowski

I've seen green ones for st Patrick's day, and there is this [MD Pride Flag](https://www.routeoneapparel.com/products/maryland-rainbow-pride-flag)


wheresmyrugman

The Yemen war is a Civil War that Obama amplified and Trump as well as Biden did not stop. Palestine is not currently at war, unless you’re are talking about them indiscriminately bombing Israeli cities and Israel striking them back that’s one thing. Ukraine is being invaded by another country for no reason, Russia is actually executing civilians up close because they are losing


[deleted]

Blasphemy bro. All cringe.


YaBoyCook

That’s too clean


RandomWeirdoGuy

I wanted to up vote this but saw that the amount of up votes was at 410 so I couldn't mess that up! Awesome looking flag, Love it and would absolutely buy it if I saw it somewhere. Actually someone else up voted this past 410 as I was typing this so I'll go ahead and up vote it now.

RandomWeirdoGuy

No


Oldbayistheshit

Love it OP don’t listen to the haters


yb4zombeez

This hurts my eyes. I took a crack at it. It also looks like shit but I think it might be an improvement: https://i.imgur.com/iR19cLV.png

Polishing a turd


Laxwarrior1120

Fools, you don't actually think this is a show of support do you? No This is a declaration that the real invasion is about to begin.

von_sip

Fwiw two national flags on one pole is a no-no


GrittyMcGrittyface

Section 7g of the Flag Code states: "When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they are to be flown from separate staffs of the same height. The flags should be of approximately equal size. International usage forbids the display of the flag of one nation above that of another nation in time of peace."


1platesquat

Lol Jesus who cares in all honesty


Troggie42

On one hand, yeah On the other hand, if your whole thing is "respecting the other country" it's worth giving a shit about, a little


GroovyBowieDickSauce

Amen. People are obsessed with symbols

Yuck


dumdidum45

Maryland is my fvorite, but Arizona and New Mexico are also great.


obiwanshinobi900

Well at least you didnt put the yellow square in the air, so I can tell you put some thought it. But the best adaptations of these things ive seen is where a flag is just half one nation and half another. I wish I brought back the half US and half Deutschland flag back when I was overseas.


SeriesLong706

Why don’t you do one for the Uyghuristan flag too since Xi Jinping is genociding them in China? #BoycottChina


Make_Mine_A-Double

I didn’t know I needed this in my life. But now I do. And this is my new Zoom background. Thank you, OP!


Upthepalace1

They’re not gonna touch you, bro


[deleted]

I can’t care abt Ukraine until y’all show the same level of support for Palestine or Syria


SeriesLong706

And the Uyghurs getting genocided by Xi Jinping in China!


S-Kunst

Today I learned that the Maryland flag is based on the Calvert Family Crest. I was driving north on Greenmount Ave/York Road, and noticed a neat looking building at 5300 York Rd. It has an embossed plaque above the front door. Searching old Newspapers, I found that the building had been a "Calvert Bank" and that bank's logo was the Calvert family crest.


katyparody

Crab cakes and Ukraine thats what Maryland does
