I've seen this on vehicles with children in them. Do y'all think they might be pedo abduction wagons? A lot of them had excessive window tint and it could have been to hide the poor kids! I'll pray on this.
I saw this post pop up in my all feed and decided to look it up.
That really is just the thin blue line flag. No idea where this pedophile stuff came in and I can’t find a source. Can you provide one? I don’t want false info spread, even if I’m not a supporter of this original intent.
Maybe this community is about something I don’t understand?
Thank you. I was casually scrolling and checked the community info, which didn’t outright say it was a shitpost community but sort of indicated it so I wasn’t sure.
I believe it's just trying to make fun of cops but not coming off as a sarcastic joke and instead misinformation about what's actually a signal for pedos.
Agree. There is no source and it's probably some stupid person trying to scare people.
FWIW I get angry when I see these flags but I also know some people who support this and they are simply misled. If I've said it once I've said it a thousand times, people can change. I used to have the opinion similar to Blue Lives Matters. My world view was bey limited and this was before social media. It's up to everyone else to listen to them and help better understand their perspective so we can help broaden their life experiences.
The blue line flag used to be to honor the police force. It's being used now to support police's racist decisions. Fucking extreme republicans hijacked the blue line flag, then slapped it on the American flag. This was before they became MAGA republicans somehow hijacked the American flag. No hate on sane republicans, though. You're cool!
fun fact, this is not an american flag, as it is not compliant with the united states flag code. here's a real american flag:
i don't get the hard-on conservatives have for flying decidedly unamerican flags, such as those of the only two enemies of the usa at war that posed a credible threat to the states (the csa and nazi germany). i'm starting to think they just have no clue about flags whatsoever, because much like this thin blue travesty, the so-called "confederate" flag isn't real either, it was only used by a very small and specific military unit within the confederacy. here's what a real confederate flag looks like, actually used by the entirety of the csa's military at one point:
