pretty sure this is a parody
the more you look at it the weirder it gets
My closest guess is that it’s a tankie viewpoint. But I think the real answer is that it was just made as a joke. The gay/trans flags being on opposite sides and the UK being on both sides seems pretty on the nose.
of course there is a hurr tankie take.
Like I said, I don’t think that’s the real answer, I think it was made as a joke.
I’m also not really passing judgement on tankies by saying that, it’s just the closest match I can make between that meme and a coherent ideology.
I don’t see much point of beefing with tankies in general.
There are quite a lot of gay people who are anti trans.
Which is incomprehensible to me, but it is a thing.
That’s my guess as well, but I feel too many flags on the right don’t match the core tankie bs. Biden ? Vatican ?
Putting Cuba and Venezuela opposed to China tells us its not a ml perspective.
UK fighting against a situation it created seems honestly correct
Chaos is a ladder
Tbh the idea of tankies idolising freedom and Jesus seems pretty wild.
All I could gather is North Korean Jesus loves transgender people
Unless they’re also gay
Or wrong British.
Ugh. The wrong British are the worst
Hey! Hey! Stop fuckin around with Korean Jesus. He busy. With Korean shit.
reminds me of this
Usually the play on these is to pick the opposite side to Israel but this one’s tough bc Israel’s on both sides.
I’m picking the left side bc China had brain-meltingly bad foreign policy during this era and there’s also Rhodesia and apartheid South Africa on the right.
What war was that?
I guess the Nigerian civil war, but Wikipedia doesn’t have that ‘supported by’ table
Son of a bitch, the Brits are spread betting
It’s the only way we can be sure of losing
It’s the British way
Is that the Marlboro logo?
It’s a proud nation.
And the Olympic games lol
UK is both? Alright…
The UK:
I like how they worked in a Biden/Harris flag opposite the American flag
But the same side as the gadsden flag… Maybe someone’s ideas of the horseshoe theory?
Across history, it’s probably had enough time to be on both sides of most conflicts at one time or another. As well as arming both sides, and drawing the lines on the maps that created a few of the problems.
The sun never sets on the empire…
Israel and palestine on the same side.
And north/south korea.I appreciate correct flag ratios :)
What is the correct flag ratio of the top center of a marlboro label?
Love the Easter egg of the Event Horizon version of the Australian flag.
There is some secret organization power-struggle going on and this person knows much
I’m sorry but stating China and Russia as freedom bastions is some tankie apologist bullshit.
Usually id agree but this is clearly chaotic for the sake of being chaotic. Even if nothing else gave it away, Israel and Palestine are on the same side.
Edit: also, a tankie would’ve never put south Korea on the ‘good’ side.
Somehow the UK is on both sides
Sure but I feel that is offset by the NATO/Ukraine flag, also the fuck is Mississippi doing there.
And Biden, which was definitely opposed by China and Russia if only because they explicitly endorsed Trump over the Ukraine and TikTok policies.
Also going to point out that the flag of the Vatican or Papal States is on its just that it blends in with the white of Jesus’s clothes. Also I just noticed what I think is the aboriginal Australian flag. Pretty sure this is just a shit post meme meant to confuse folks who are into vexillology.
Dude you have up to soon. The fun is continuing down each side because the “team ups” are confusing
The devil has the EU and Germany. According to my calculations, that makes two Germanys.
Jesus is fucked.
I cannot fucking decipher what the stance behind it could be
Maybe that’s the message. It’s impossible to tell which is the good side. What has precedence, the flags or the image?
Overall, the left side could be the countries that are controlled by the US, which includes Cuba because of the embargo. LGBTQ is on that side because the logo was abused by the corporations whereas trans is alien to the US establishment.
