Since when is that the french flag ? Did it get invaded by Luxembourg during the night ?

since when is that the Luxembourg flag? πŸ‡³πŸ‡±

and just so you know they probably stole it from the Dutch, wij Nederlanders (die bijna alles gekoloniseerd hebben) and turned it sideways.

Wrong blue indeed, but still closer than french flag (at least it's the right order of colors)

[–] MeThisGuy@feddit.nl 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

well now you know. and you know how proud Dutch ppl are of their flag?

when the 'muricans ask "hey where do you store you flag when not in use?"

our universal answer is: "in the broom closet"

'american'ts': "surely neatly folded up and definitely not on the floor right?"

the Dutch: "nope, just toss it in there after the variety of holidays that call for a flag"

love this country!

And it'd be less humiliating if we'd got invaded by the Netherlands instead of Luxembourg πŸ˜…

Also, as a metalhead, I have no issue being invaded by :

  • Anneke van Giersbergen
  • Floor Jansen
  • Sharon den Adel
  • Simone Simons
  • ... (list goes on for hours)

I like to think he's saying "your infant wasn't baptised, so I'm taking it straight to the fires of hell for an eternity of torture. Don't forget that I am love."

oh we're posting the polish flag popping out of jesus and beaming onto a famous polish saint, a known popular image of veneration for polish catholics, and calling it french again cool cool

[–] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Is that...is that really the original intent?

That would mean that Jesus firing nationism beams from his chest is canon to at least someone's theology?

It's weird how much I want this to be true.

I tried to find confirmation, but I learned that "Jesus Painting Poland" is a very deep search term rabbit hole.

Amazing. Thank you.

So if I'm reading correctly, those are generally mercy or blessing beams, and not necessarily usually nationalism beams.

[–] 8000gnat@reddthat.com 2 points 2 days ago

You're welcome! That's my takeaway too, that the beams just happen to be the Polish colors.
