    I saw this post pop up in my all feed and decided to look it up.

    That really is just the thin blue line flag. No idea where this pedophile stuff came in and I can’t find a source. Can you provide one? I don’t want false info spread, even if I’m not a supporter of this original intent.

    Maybe this community is about something I don’t understand?

        Thank you. It looked like maybe it was but there was nothing outright saying it in its description so as a casual scroller I wasn’t sure.

      This is a meme shitpost community.

      And this specific post is intentional misinformation/satire of cop bootlickers because fuck cops and fuck the people who fly this flag.

        Thank you. I was casually scrolling and checked the community info, which didn’t outright say it was a shitpost community but sort of indicated it so I wasn’t sure.

      I believe it’s just trying to make fun of cops but not coming off as a sarcastic joke and instead misinformation about what’s actually a signal for pedos.
