At least the real nazis had some sense of art style, this thing looks shit. I almost expect it to have "hail hortler" next to it.
Cut them some slack, it was probably the best they could do editing the flag on mobile
The flag was obviously altered which is being intentionally left out or buried in the majority of posts.
To say they "proudly" displayed when it's still unknown who actually put it there or manipulated the flag in an open cubicle of a staffer is just weird.
I don't understand why people are downvoting you. The image really looks edited. The artifacting of the red color everywhere else bleeds into the white, except there where the swastika is? That's what you'd get from an image that has been compressed multiple times, with the white spaces being added in in between
I looked up the story. They misspelled his name twice, it's actually Angelo Elia. Doesn't lend a lot of credibility. I found a bunch of news articles on it, with Taylor's office acknowledging and condemning the image, but it doesn't sound like there has been any verification the flag actually exists. Just this singular image
As much as the Republican party is the home of neo-Nazis in America, they're not at the point of openly displaying swastikas. I'm going to have to wait for more information before forming a final opinion here
The image isn't edited, they just say someone else put the altered flag there:
The flag was found inside Taylor’s office in the Cannon Building in Washington, D.C., Tuesday afternoon, according to an office spokesperson. Taylor believes it is the result of “foul play or vandalism,” the spokesperson said.
This politico article seems to show the flag (albeit obviously altered, not through photoshop or digital means) as well as another staffer confirming the actual flag was actually found within the room.
Not making an assumption of who altered the flag, but it seems legit.
Why does it look photoshopped tho? Did he alter it himself?
It looks like he used red and white tape in arts and crafts to alter it
White women and pick me women. Please stop fucking these clowns. That way they die out.
I mean, in terms of abhorrent future nazi hellscape merch, gotta say, it's a decent design.
I was thinking the opposite, it looks atrocious. Something like this would be better imo
Stop helping them
I mean, you're right, but I hate that it's better
I think that's already some American Nazi Party flag
Too many fucking nazis
So many cool designs for the US nazis, isn't it wonderful?
Feel the same as you that flag looks dumb as hell. Better than the official American Nazi Party (it exists!) it's just a Nazi flag with a blue dot in the middle ... Dumb AF
The predecessor to them, the ones that were around in the time for Hitler and held the huge Madison Square rally, the German American Bund party - they had a way better flag.
Check this out, it goes hard. Fuck Nazis, only good Nazi is a dead Nazi, but I think this flag does look cool at least
The swastika design makes me think of Art Deco skyscraper. Pretty cool
Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? 'No!' says the man in Washington, 'It belongs to the poor.' 'No!' says the man in the Vatican, 'It belongs to God.' 'No!' says the man in Moscow, 'It belongs to everyone.' I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose... Rapture…
I don't think so. It's aesthetically unpleasent that the left hook touches the blue.
Sounding a bit Walter Sobchak there..
Oh no! Now he's been outed as the horrible person he is he will be driven out of his job?
Oh wait, no... Just a few people will post some memes and shit and nothing will change.
