    You can't deny that the flag he posted is beautiful though.

    Now you're just being childish. Aesthetic preferences and political preferences are two different things. I for example consider the current Turkish flag (and the anthem) as an almost perfect one, despite having very little sympathy for the nation itself, which by the way is still nominally fascist. On the other hand, I kind of like China, but their flag looks lame.

    Personally I think posting the Nazi flags (and to a certain extent the romans) are lame and cliche to the point were it could be adhered to Godwins law. Everytime its coolest looking this or coolest looking that and there is alway the group of guys that must post "oh those nazis sure where mean but boy did they have a sense of style!" and then clutter the thread with different variations of the same uniform from the hundred of divisions of the german army. Its almost as if they were doing it for the sake of political incorrectness. I got it Nazis have nice flags and uniforms, move along.

    I also like painting! so be sure to check out my deviant!: http://thesax66.deviantart.com/

    Do you have a nazi t shirt? Why not if itīs just about aesthetic preferences? Some flags are also symbols, you can not say "itīs cool" because you know what people did or does under that kind of flags. Just my point of view. I may be childish, or may be you are too young.

    Edit: The sami flag is horrible.

    It's different because you may find a certain image to be visually "appealing" whether it has a bad message or not but making the choice to carry that image around on your person is a message of your appreciation of that image and what it represents. Nobody buys a band t-shirt from a band who's music they hate because they like the look of the t-shirt?

    Lots of Swiss municipalities have coats of arms with bears on them that have more than a tongue sticking out...

    Agreed, big wtf to the Swiss for such stuff.

    Very cool flag. As for some more of my own preferences, the French monarchy had a lot of great ones:
