Little Englanders have been loving this ‘St George post box’ and it was a first class self-own to write home about
You’ll already know about this ‘raising the flag’ business where people have been spending their spare time putting up union jacks and the cross of St George all over the place and – if they can’t find a flag – painting one on a mini roundabout.
And not just roundabouts if this picture is to believed, posted by the entirely self-explanatory @UK_Needs_Reform. Post boxes as well.
Even postboxes now, brilliant.

Why weren’t they always like that anyway? It looks nice

It looks great, even if it wasn’t a protest. Make Britain British again!

Well, you get the idea by now.
Except it was an unfortunate self-own on several levels.
First, this.
That just shows a deep disrespect of British culture, post boxes are protected because they are essentially only found in the U.K. if your the dumb fuck who did this, you’ve painted over a British ICON. well done fucking idiot.

Imagine changing something iconic and quintessential British and thinking that’s somehow patriotic. https://t.co/90WtW3eUby

I’m impressed at how stupid everyone is, sincerely believing this to be real.

The red post box is an elemental icon of British culture.
And you created this AI image to encourage people to vandalise them.
You hate your country.
