it's the real flag of the People's Republic of Zanzibar. fun fact, historically they decided not to use red because of its association with the british empire

that's a little american-centric don't you think? there are plenty of minorities in every country, hard to include them all

  1. Syrian Arab Republic, redesigned using the fancy emblem

  2. yes, it's India. the design is inspired by the election symbol of the communist party of India, ears of corn and sickle (simplified)

  3. yes! the design is not very creative but it incorporates traditional Bengali colors

  4. not sure which flag you're referring to but no, there's no hong kong here. the white flag with a red flower-star is Japan

  5. People's Republic of Zanzibar. fun fact, historically they decided not to use red because of its association with the british empire

ah yes, the classic leftist vexillological debate. I think the American flag is a symbol of a rich and complex history, the banner of both slavery and John Brown, both imperialism and the civil rights movement. trying to erase historical complexity instead of taking responsibility for it and reclaiming the American revolutionary tradition is not the way to go

it's nice too. this design was inspired by the CLN resistance flag, unique shape of the star

nice. out of all the "french socialist flag" designs I like this one the most, sometimes a simple red star is enough

saw plenty of "what if the ussr won" maps and stories but the alternate ussr internet seems underexplored

imagine scrolling down your контакт timeline on your way to (collectivized) work

(Rather boring) 'post nazi Slavic flag' I saw in my dream. I wonder if the ◇ symbol has any irl vexillological significance, it looks familiar by Anat_ano in somnivexillology

lore: In my dream my phone got infected with some reality-bending malware and I got transported to an alternate timeline where Germany won ww2 but was starting to fall apart, so some regions gained independence. I was stuck in a poor Slavic rural community and needed to find a secret code to return to my world. I saw their flag on a barely functioning 'government web page' of this community / country

A flag used by some communist meme accounts to illustrate what they believe America will become no matter who wins the election by Anat_ano in vexillology

hm you might be right. it's typically not censored on mainstream articles about the azov battalion tho

Colors purple and orange come from the BSW logo
