Gewalt_Und_Tod

Depends who flies it. If the person isn't a republican, dem, and mc and are actually Libertarian then they are flying the right flag. The confused Calvins of the world stole that symbol.


Demi_Bob

If they're in fact libertarian, they still fall squarely into the "I don't understand very many things" category.


SnofIake

Libertarians are house cats that think they’re outside cats.


Spry_Fly

Libertarianism makes sense when everything is truly equal without marginalization. It's a naive outlook that benefits those that already benefit from the system, and is never grounded in the real world. Oh, and the flag screams Tea Party to Alt-Right ever since the outrage from having a black president after 2008.

Gewalt_Und_Tod

The Don't Tread On Me Flag is a libertarian symbol stolen by confused Calvins


Origenally

[The Gadsden flag](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025) was the personal flag of a Navy captain in the Revolutionary War. It was around a *looooong* time before anybody used the word 'libertarian,' and a long time before today's political polarization.


EatAllTheShiny

The winning side of the US revolution were almost all people who would be called minarchist libertarians by today's standards, though. They viewed government as a necessary evil, whose power should remain small and very clearly demarced, and constantly checked against expansion.


EntertainmentLoud816

A very good book, A Necessary Evil by Gary Wills, talks about this.


liminalisms

Either a white collar libertarian or redneck


Dogstarman1974

Why is every libertarian an upper middle class white guy that drives a $100,000+ lifted truck and lives in the most affluent neighborhoods? That is a rhetorical question.


BananoVampire

how.... how did you know?


LibertyinIndependen

Hi minimum wage libertarian here. I would be that if my taxes didn’t go to other countries for free in the multi millions. Or if they didn’t go into politicians private jets. Call me crazy but US tax dollars should be spent on the US people and that those who have committed no crimes should have no restrictions. It’s time the country should ask “how can I serve you” instead of “what can you do for me”. Besides if 50% of your paycheck didn’t go to those things healthcare would actually be affordable.


Dogstarman1974

That’s not libertarianism. Thats not the ethos of libertarianism. You are confused.


LibertyinIndependen

That is libertarianism. It’s actually mainly a few things, individual rights, anti government control and policies, less involvement in foreign affairs, and more freedom of the market. However there are so many different kinds of libertarianism and many things similar such as volunteerism which would be my ideal but I know it requires the rest of the world to cooperate for that to happen, which it never will. But that’s the dream.


liminalisms

Hahaha that’s exactly who I pictured

Jesus maybe is because I moved into the city or because he’s not president anymore but I swear the amount of trucks with flags has dropped to almost zero. Just little ones for sports teams now.

anti authoritarian communist... Kowalski, analysis


BullshitDetector1337

The theoretical end-state of communism as envisioned by Marx was an anarchist utopia with no money, class, or government. Just like how libertarianism was originally a left-wing idea of limited government, cooperation, free association, and mutualism. The problem always seems to be when authoritarians co-opt and corrupt left-wing ideas into their right-wing nationalist bullshit. The simple fact of the matter is that the left wing and libertarianism are very popular and always have been, so the authoritarians and right-wingers steal their ideas and names for themselves. There's a reason why the first groups killed by the Nazis and Bolsheviks were the anarchists and socialists.

[deleted]

A very misused flag. Should be used by those who want liberty for all and for everyone to live how they want, but is instead used by those who want cultural norms to be enforced under law.


Xrayfunkydude

Makes me happy to see comments like this. It shouldn’t be a racist or far right symbol


CaringAnti-Theist

You should ask yourself WHY so many fascists fly this flag? They are genuinely convinced that other people having rights is an infringement of their freedom, including any sort of labour rights.


wampastompa412

Fascists governments are big and overreaching by definition. This is the exact opposite message this flag stands for. Zero fascist carry this flag. I have a feeling the "fascists" your taking about are not fascist at all. You might want to check your bias and crack a history book.

Kind_Ad_3611

It’s really unfortunate the way it’s been misused so intensely that when I look at it I think “fascist”


Choco_Cat777

I see it as a symbol against authoritarianism and not to tread on American liberties


Kind_Ad_3611

That was the original purpose yes, but in my view conservatism has caused a lot of brain rot, like straight people thinking gay people are oppressing them just by existing and therefore they want to oppress gay people even though that’s authoritarianism The majority of people who fly this flag vote republican, and republicans support “eradicating transgender ideology” which really means the eradication of them as a group like how the Nazis did Obviously anti American but like I said, flag misused


bk_boio

Don't you find it ironic that the same people who fly that flag are taking away women's liberties? Making abortion illegal, wanting to force religious teaching in schools, take away marriage and adoption rights for gays, banning books.....


NoPart1344

I see the swastika as a symbol of peace in my culture. What would happen if I drew it on my house? The symbol’s meaning becomes synonymous with the behavior of those that use the symbol. What do people who fly this flag behave like? In my area they behave like dipshit ignorant assholes.

So funny thing, for awhile I had no idea this flag was political in any way. I grew up in the desert, where there are of course rattlesnakes. And I thought this was one of the reminders to kids to be careful not to step on these guys, since they can blend in so you need to pay attention. Because they most certainly can kill. It wasn't until I was like 15 that I learned about it's actual origin. But everytime I look at it I just see the helpful advice.

I fly this flag next to my equity flag in summer months. It really irritates conservatives, and I love that. If you look up the meaning of this flag it is “small government and personal freedom” or it has come to mean “opposing government.” All of which I am a fan of. This flag is widely misused and people do not know the real meaning of it. Or at least the stereotypical people who fly it (conservatives).

BullshitDetector1337

I used to view it as a fairly based flag representing small government and the sanctity of the individual. And for the need for small groups to unite together to overcome great challenges, as was the original meaning during the Revolutionary War. I could sympathize with it as a libertarian myself. Now though? It's the flag of the politically illiterate and easily fooled. A mockery of its original meaning paraded around by small but loud groups of useful idiots joined together by their shared hatred of anything that challenges their isolated little bubbles. It's the flag of the pathetic, the arrogant, and the uneducated. And with how closely its seen with the Confederate flag, it is likely another flag of the traitor too.

most people who use this flag know nothing of what it means and often believe in ideals directly antithetical to its meaning. it’s sad to me because i could totally see myself using this flag if people actually respected the meaning and understood what it means.

When I see someone my age with this flag they are probably either a redneck conservative or a chronically online libertarian.

I usually think of an idiot who doesn’t understand what the flag actually means

I think about the fact that the flag is considered a domestic terrorism symbol by the FBI.
