GOP celebrated US Independence Day with a tweet featuring the... Liberian flag

I’m not sure whether Yevgeny Dragunov would be flattered, displeased, or confused.

I think you’re too harsh. For them, everywhere looks like Republic of Gilead.

This design lacks realism. The left margin should have hills of bodies stacked up.

Well, at least they correctly show the guns holding up all the states.

Garden variety incompetence seems most likely; but I have to suspect that those involved wouldn’t exactly be brokenhearted were this to be interpreted as support for the good works of the American Colonization Society.

See… it’s one oh-so-white star prominent on a blue [bloods] background, in summit over the “other” white and “coloured” lines. All held up by a phallic blue line-wit’-a-knob-on [patriarchy] … could they be clearer about their support of, and lap-dogging to, the monied classes?

/s … only that it’s purposeful and not a fsck up. Last line still feels a true question.

That sort of thing happens. Last autumn the Social Democrat Party in my native state of Hesse, Germany, put out a “Happy Yom Kippur” tweet featuring a picture of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, a famous monument of Islam.

99% sure their web person just grabbed something off of the patriotic clip art package they have, which was meant to be a generic flag. Though it is a really bad attention to detail, where you would think you would have ol’ Glory waving full on the 4th. Or at least the Betsy Ross Flag.

Some in the GOP do seem to favor a style of government consistent with certain African strongman dictators …
