    It’s sad but that flag has lost its original meaning as a revolutionary symbol and has been fully co-opted by libertarians. So really, making fun of it in general is fine because libertarians are wackos. But especially with a Trump sticker, it’s clear they don’t understand at least one of the philosophies they stuck on their car.

      Now that’s an interesting take! Why do you think that its symbolism doesn’t align with libertarianism (I assume that’s what you meant when you said “co-opted by libertarians”)?
