Nonononono... it's banned because the dude she's standing on is wearing a dress.

Looks more like he's got some kind of trampling fetish. And what's going on with that large, erect phallus shaped object at her waist..?

That's not the real reason. The real reason is our state flag contains instructions about what to do about the kinds of tyrants who run this country

[–] dan1101@lemm.ee 5 points 3 weeks ago

Exactly "Thus always to tyrants" interferes with their corporate and political goals. The stupid breast objection is just a smokescreen.

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 44 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Is this really about the breast or the flags words? "Thus Always to Tyrants".

Tiddies bad, but fascism good?

Eat shit Texas. I choose tiddies.

"Oh god! Are you trying to get me demonetized? Your flag has nudity, murder, and an explicit call to violence. But you know what, Virginia? That’s kind of badass." -CGP Gray

Y'all are being really judgemental of us. Just cuz our governor is a hypocritical bigot, our AG is a grifting Nazi, and our congresspeople sell us out then abandon us when the going gets tough.

And y'all are acting like just cuz we keep voting for these people that we're to blame! Can't you see we're the victims here??? Please! Quit bullying us with your boobies so that we can go back to fellating our abusers!!!

State flag jealousy is a real thing. Sic Semper Tyrannis, mf'ers!

Even a broken clock is right twice a day everytime I see that breast I masturbate furiously.

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Is that a vexilology fetish or something you need to talk to a professional about?

[–] whostosay@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

I've finally conquered my porn addiction because I've seen this flag and require no other sexual gratification. The universe is now complete, we can all go home.

[–] grysbok 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Well, Virginia is for lovers.

[–] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago

Texans do "love" their cattle.

[–] Fingolfinz@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Fucking losers

Sic Semper Tyrannis

Don't let it become mere words on a flag mentioned in some history book banned by the ministry of truth.
