      I never knew about the origin of the flag but I always see it used by ancaps and other far right groups.

      This flag is implying monarchies can simply bend over anyone they want anywhere and properly fuck them without giving the courtesy of a reach-around.

      The red and black colors and the black cat arching its back are anarchist symbols.

        That is sad to see the modern use and interpretation of the Gadsden flag. I fly one next to my Pride flag outside my house to piss off the extremist dipshits that drive by.

          I dont think its doing what you think its doing… if it means something to you then more power to you. If your only doing it to piss of right wing conservatives… That’s probably not what its doing.

          You knew the modern interpretation because you fly it next to your pride flag, but still asked what it means now? Confusing interaction.

            I never knew the modern interpretation, I flew it because I interpreted the flag as something that represents individualism. I guess I’ll fly my Satanic flag next to it to further signal the idea of individualism to others that drive by my house.

      It means whatever the alt right chodes decide it means at whatever moment you ask them. I’ve never seen someone fly it that didn’t have it right next to a trump flag.
