Not a good combination! The black-white-red flag is of the rightists, nowadays still used by the “Reichsbürger” movement, which is very back warded and regressive.
This to mix with the GDR symbol is a very bad idea. That’s mixing fascists with communists.
The black-red-yellow flag comes from the Wartburgfest (1817 students’ convention) and then was the official flag of the Weimar Republic 1918-1933.
Please do not mix that, it’s an affront against all the progressive Germans!
Okay, but, it’s Wikipedia and there are no other sources, so I still doubt it. ;) Never heard about that. In recent Germany, the “Reichsbürger” guys use this flag.
