There are no worse scum in this world than fascists, rebels and political hypocrites.
Donald Trump is only like Hitler because of the fact he's losing this war on all fronts.
Apparently condemning a fascist ideology is the same as being fascist. And who the fuck are you to say I can't be fascist against fascist ideologies?
If merit was the only dividing factor in the human race, then everyone on Earth would be pretty damn equal.
Funnily enough only 4 of those 38 are sporting the Union Jack. Australia, New Zealand, the Union Jack itself and the Cook Islands, which apparently count.

Looking into it I was actually surprised how few flags still inset the Union Jack, I thought there were more, but they mostly aren't the flags of sovereign nations. Or they have colours other than red white and blue.
I doubt the Netherlands or France chose their flag to reference the Union Jack. Could it be that Red, White and Blue simply go well together? We have a state flag in Germany (Schleswig-Holstein) with those colours, doubt they (as an area that was primarily under Danish influence) chose to reference the union jack, too.
Red is a good signal colour.
White is always a positive, portraying innocence or purity or somesuch stuff.
Blue goes well with both, but it often has a special meaning for countries with a coastline to the sea.
Aside from obvious Empire colony references, there are still a lot of countries that chose the colours because they blend well together.

They seriously started collecting Russian flags from the auditory? The irony of this is multilayered!
The new US Soviet flag is literally best flag EU.

Well, wilful ignorance is the modus operandi for his voter base.
Trolling done right.
Honestly, I would just ditch the current flag and go for something new and unique, that represents Australia as being a real country, not just some random piece of land where white people happen to live for some undiscernible reason. I mean, all of your sports uniforms are green and yellow, why not have those be your flag colors? Red, white, and blue is overused anyway.
From a purely flag design standpoint, this would not be a bad look:

Good troll, kudos.
Please god no. Our Olympic colours look like the kind of thing you get when you turn up an hour late for the line.
A lot of people have suggested we inset an Aboriginal flag in there.
... Ehhhh. Maybe instead we should do it by our largest ethnic group. Which would mean...

...oh.
Couple of things - I'm 34 years old. I've voted since I was old enough. I didn't vote for Trump, and before the left made Russia the boogeyman responsible for every problem in America in a dipshit attempt to damage trump , Russia had fuck all to do with American politics past foreign policy.
As a upper middle class white American, Russia continues to have fuck all to do with me, my daily life , or how I vote.
People working 2 jobs in the US (at least one part-time) - 7.8 Million (Roughly 4.9% of the workforce)
People working 2 full-time jobs in the US - 360,000 (0.2% of the workforce)
Average time worked weekly by the US Workforce - 34.5 hours
As an upper middle class white American, your daily life is going to be pretty good regardless of whatever happens anywhere, so being informed about the world is sort of optional for you in a way that it really isn't for most other people. The rest of us don't have the luxury of being able to be ignorant or to have silly opinions, because when we do stupid stuff there are actual consequences for it that you probably don't ever face.
10/10 troll/protest/whatever. Infinitely better than the "Punch someone you disagree with" crowd.
That being said to the people complaining that people don't know other countries flags and are trying to use that to make them look clueless, you might want to recheck your priorities. When the only thing that you can use to call people stupid or some-such is their lack of knowledge as far as flags go it might be that you are grasping at straws.
