      revolution is rarely peaceful, and this is the US, the most armed and militaristic nation on earth, if any real change is going to happen in there, you can bet that the bourgeois will fight back fiercely.

        I meant this flag

        Its based on the flag of the CPUSA, and its common to see in fictional depictions of a socialist US, I just prefer the aesthetic of it. I think its safe to say that the CPUSA isn’t really all about settler colonialism or genocide, but if I’m wrong please enlighten me.

            No I understand, the American flag is atrocious, both visually and in its meaning, literally half of it, the stripes, represent settler colonialism. Its why I think Patsocs are moronic. That’s the tricky thing when it comes to making socialist imagery for the US. Being recognizable as from the same country without taking on the evil baggage of its past.

            Understandable, there are versions like that too, I just found the first off google. Overall I just feel like a more generic socialist flag could imply that the US was invaded by a foreign socialist power (Very Based), but seeing a recognizably American socialist banner flying over the capitol evokes revolutionary overthrow from within (Unfathomably based)

        Perhaps. But historically, socialists have been able to keep large countries together after revolutions, see China and the Soviet Union.
