Today, a bunch of people on my Mastodon feed are making declarations about somebody apparently flying a flag upside down, and this apparently has something to do with the New York Times being terrible.

What happened?

    Jan 6th insurrectionists were using it to say the country was in distress because of the “stolen election” lie.

      Funny because THEY were the ones causing the country to go in distress.

      And folks on the left were doing it after Trump was elected to symbolize their resistence.

      Misusing a flag has always been a back and forth argument in political circles.

      It’s a nothingburger in my opinion.
