    No, actually just don’t tread on me. Don’t tarnish the message of this flag (and neither should the people you’re targeting tbh)

      Then you need to be louder than the people currently using it.

      Symbols are only as good as their most known use. And this flag is now known to be flown by thin blue line boot lickers.

      The message of the flag has been changed by the years of assholes flying it while happily trampling on others.

      The meme is accurate as to its current standing.

      Same. The idea that one doesn’t want to be trampled on is pretty common. Odd one would want to downplay such a message.

        And yet the ones that actually put this on the bumper of their trucks have completely ruined the original message. Really sad honestly. Don’t tread on me… unless you’re trans, an immigrant or anyone else whose existence doesn’t affect me but is convenient to blame for all my problems.
