my gramps unironically got the 30-30 out of the closet when the rioters started moving out of the cities, he was not kidding around
they never got very close thankfully.

why would your gramps need that when he can just enlist his grandson to shitpost the rioters into submission

Me looking at the comic: I bet somebody is going to ignore the whole point and just nitpick the flags.

Well, subtle disingenuity like that does undermine the point the comic is trying to make.

The nitpicking aside, I dont think the point is very convincing anyway. Both pictures represent one facet of American society and sentiment.
The reality of the situation has a lot more ambiguity than "Trump's America = bad (militaristic, hostile, cold, authoritarian)" vs "Protesters' America = good (peaceful, colorful, lots of diversity of both people and opinion)".

The point is that one of these signifies the ideal of America more than the other. Freedom of speech fulfills that ideal more than the militaristic trump's America.
