Time to start waving around the Serapis flag, just to see how long it takes to get labeled "racist" somehow.



[Edit: Sorry, implied a rant about the Gadsden flag. Too many beers to make it work tonight]

no.

The only symbolism Serapis flag has is "Not a Pirate", but when even a Jimi Hendrix statue is vandalized, you never know what's next.

Yeah! We need more defenders for a flag flown by a literal pedophile.

Ben Franklin fucked anything that stopped moving long enough. John Paul Jones had two wives that seem to have disappeared from history.
If you got the dirt, share.

Ben Franklin fucked of-age French prostitutes.

John Paul Jones raped a pre-teen Russian prostitute. (even if she was "willing" she was still a child)

Literally the only way I knew this was back in undergrad for our final history presentations, we had a classmate who did his presentation on John Paul Jones and that's how the presentation ended. >_>

The Gadsden flag at least has the benefit of having some legitimate history behind it before getting appropriated by far-right loonies.

The confederate flag is literally racist >_>

They had confederate flags in Mario Kart DS.
Not quite as many as crudely-drawn dick flags, but still.

Eh, I have a couple wrestlers with a modified Confederate Flag on their attires in WWE 2k19. 2k can't do jack about it because:

A: I didn't upload the image (it was made from in-game parts).
B: I'm not uploading the wrestlers (they're hillbillies) because I'm not stupid.
C: I don't play online.

I'm well aware 2k has nothing to do with Forza, I just wanted to post.

Edit:

I have the Russian trio from the 80s with that flag as well.

I'm referring to the shapes. Its mostly just stars and a couple rectangles in the shape of an X with a red background. I just couldn't do the white outline because there wasn't enough room (patterns can only have a certain number of images). It's really not hard at all.
