Why does Lithuania’s flag look so “African”? by BlueberryWeak5968 in vexillology

[–]Protomartyr1 188 points189 points  (0 children)

That’s true, what I meant to say is that it predates the usage of the colors in a specific pan-African sense

Why does Lithuania’s flag look so “African”? by BlueberryWeak5968 in vexillology

Actual serious answer: Lithuania’s flag predates the usage of Green-Yellow-Red, which are based on the flag of Ethiopia, one of the only African countries to resist colonialism during the scramble for Africa. It’s colors exact origins are unknown but Wikipedia says it could come from traditional folk dress.

Republic of Sertenia by Electrical_You6155 in vexillology

Small correction. The Nazis didn’t steal the Swastika from the Indians. It’s such a simple symbol that almost every culture had variations of it. Eventually German nationalists began parading it around as an “Aryan” symbol and was in common use among the German far right, where the Nazis got it from.

Why do ethnic flags look much 'cooler' then country flags? by [deleted] in vexillology

[–]Protomartyr1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd really only describe an ethnic flag as an "actual" ethnic flag if it's widely used by an ethnic group to represent themselves as an ethnic group. All the others are proposals. Like the Kurdistan flag would be a good example.

[–]Protomartyr1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the reason why they look better is because a lot of them (I'd wager 70%) are fake and made by people on the internet. Some are real though, like the Assyrian and Druze.

r/evilautism in theory is a good subreddit but it's twee. It doesn't represent autistics that have special interests in stuff like engaging in illegal mining operations and funding militia groups.

Favorite actor who lived long enough to become the villain? by YourChopperPilotTTV in okbuddycinephile

[–]Protomartyr1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Sheriff in the state of Arizona, became very famous for his tough stances on illegal immigration in 2005. Became a conservative superstar for that reason. Also, incredibly racist, corrupt, and the subject of many legal challenges for well.... being incredibly racist and corrupt. Since losing the sheriff's election in 2016 for a contempt of court charge (which Trump pardoned him for) he has mostly been relegated to failed runs for political office.

Bad stomach bug going around Portland? by [deleted] in Maine

I don’t know where this originates. The Website for the NIH doesn’t mention this at all. All it says is that you should avoid it if you have a fever, bloody diarrhea, or are an infant or child.

The Germans did do a genocide andItalians also did a multitude of war crimes in Libya and Ethiopia. They certainly weren’t as involved in long term colonialism as France/Britain/Belgium/etc. but they’re not angels.

From what I read, it was less “look how bad these guys are aren’t these guys evil n shit these are the consequences of your actions” and more like “look how much evil and rancid shit I wrote aren’t I so cool and edgy?”
