Fantastic journalism to not include the image of the “optical illusion” anywhere in the article, or the other linked articles.
the linked article linked to another article, which FINALLY linked to the original reporting of it which has the image
10/10 journalistic quality, folks
Oh wow invisible to the naked eye indeed
I’m surprised someone didn’t just direct an AI to generate one. The bar is low enough these days that maybe they deserve points for that.
it might LOOK like a swastika but it’s actually an amerikkka
Okay, when you put it that way, it’s actually quite understandable
This is actually laughable lol. Why even lie this badly
you’re all getting it confused. of course it’s a swastika - it’s the american flag that’s an illusion!
Absolutely shameful of nbc to not publish the picture of the flag but to run this cover for it
One of the sources, whose office received a flag back in January, said it was initially difficult to see the flag’s swastika with the naked eye, calling it an “optical illusion.” But once the swastika in the center of the flag was discovered, the flag was thrown out, the source said.
Lmao bullshit it’s not an optical illusion it’s just a fuckin swastika
The U.S does not have a Fascism problem. It is a mirage. The U.S has a problem of mysterious mirages popping up warping reality as we know it
Someone get the capitol police on this immediately
extra fun gif cuz the fella in the middle plays a neonazi in american history x
The gif is from Kevin Smith’s Mallrats (1995) of the Jay and Silent Bob series. Throughout the whole movie, the character in the middle stands at a kitsch art kiosk and stares at a printing of what looks like TV static. Every other character in the movie claims that they can see a sailboat. The character in the middle grows increasingly frustrated that he’s the only one who can’t see it.
The audience never sees the sailboat either. The optical illusion is fake. The printing is only static.
There are two types of Amerikkkan “journalists”: those that are fascists, and those that run interference for fascists
The news comes one day after Rep. Dave Taylor, R-Ohio, called the flag with the swastika “vile” and “deeply inappropriate” after the symbol was seen in one of his staffers’ offices in the background of a meeting. […] Taylor denounced the symbol Wednesday, saying in a statement, “I condemn it in the strongest terms.”
I hate the media.

I keep tellin’ the youngsters too soon is too soon! Do they listen? No! Wait a minute… Is that camera on over there? Can people see and hear— [Adjusts tie and takes a deep breath] I want all Americans to know that the swastika is vile and deeply inappropriate. I condemn it in the strongest terms…
I really want someone prominent to start saying “bullshit” whenever one of these ghouls cries “I condemn!” It’s so fucking obvious they don’t mean it and are just doing it reflexively.
It seems that every MSM reporter in DC is a doofus or pretends to be. And the media gets so huffy and annoyed when the public starts yelling - “Stop taking diction! The GOP is lying - you dipshits!” It’s a ridiculous and insane situation.
A few years from now people like Taylor will be openly proclaiming stuff like their belief in the national supremacy and dominance of the White Race. And the media’s response will be - “How did we get here?” And when they answer their own question - they’ll surely mention the damaging and toxic online atmosphere that stifles the discourse.
Maybe they’re dumb enough to believe that, but i’m not.
It’s insulting how stupid they think we are…and journalists STILL twist themselves in a pretzel to just believe anything republicans say…but somehow the “mainstream mediaTM” isn’t biased in their favor.
>Multiple GOP offices received flags with ‘optical illusion’ swastikas…
So… you’re gonna remove them right?
