So, so many words on these flags. Somewhere out there, CGPgrey is actively sobbing. I adore Montana and Oregon, though.

Everyone gets a sickle and hammer except Colorado and Wyoming.

Wyoming doesn’t even get the star lmao

Awkwardly pasting red stars and sickles onto existing flags with the occasional factory motif, very much like real life socialist flags.

The Oregon flag design is pretty clever, but I kind of hate it at the same time.

So many hammer and sickles, communism really does make everything the same for everyone

Go post this on Truth social as "Bernie Sanders's secret plan" and watch the MAGA ants get all riled up

Of course. Even Soviet Indiana's flag sucks.

Huge missed opportunity with South Carolina to just turn the crescent into a sickle.

Tennessee: still a banger.

Thanks for wrecking Ohio’s flag, Regicollis

Maine and Massachusetts are basically the same flag

Well, many of the flags of the Soviet Republics were basically the same as well. And of course many of the US state flags (SOB). The similarity might simply be due to laziness, but it is quite realistic as well.
