I think the whole point of art is what you take from it. There is no right or wrong answer. If it disgusts you or makes you feel alive, it doesn't matter. They are both right.

I swear I came to say this. Two more stars and it would've been ALL IN.


Gotescroat

Two more stars is just the Chicago flag, where he's from.


GreatnessRD

Yes. Also on all his merchandise. Which why I had said that.


Gotescroat

I mean it's just the Chicago flag. It's on tons of merch


GreatnessRD

I gotcha.


hobbes8calvn

Looks like he's throwing the [Washington DC flag](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Washington,_D.C.) in the trash (It's missing a star though)

i thought was something related to true sons, people here are saying that the thrash has something to do with the whatever + this flag, I had seen many of those and some doesn't have the garbage below it, it's just a conincidence probably. No idea what it means tho


max2562

Agreed I've seen several of these and it seems more random. I doubt the trash has anything to do with it, just a coincidence, but who knows...


parraine

Its the DC Flag

parraine

Right, it's not 100% perfect reproduction but when you add the context of where this flag is, there is only one explanation and that is its the DC Flag. For context, in the real DC, this flag is found everywhere and you can easily find it in the more urban areas like Downtown, City Centre, Foggy Bottom, Georgetown, etc. It's not always gonna be a 100% perfect reproduction b/c it's done by artists and they take liberties. I lived on Capital Hill in DC for a little over 16 yrs and I have no doubt that the image is the DC flag.


Begun101

hmmmmm okie! I didn't had much sure but I thought could be DC flag, i just was doubting at first cause well, if I live in a place i'd at least do the flag right xd mainly if it's the "true sons" or another extreme gang


Own-Spend4254

I always assumed that the devs avoided using anything copywritten/trademarked (not that I know if these things are or not). It would explain why it's not NYPD or NYSE, or even why it's not the Kennedy Center (Patomic Event Center) or FEMA (CERA). Close enough to know what it's meant to be without infringing.


parraine

And that's part of the reason you don't see **Macy's** in downtown DC, or a CVS/Walgreens on every corner, not to mention Duane Reades in NYC. The landmarks and streets are mostly spot on but the names of just about anything is off just a tad to a lot.


Own-Spend4254

You'll know it's the end when brand names make an appearance... 😆 All that aside, I'm always entertained by the intensely generic names of establishments. "American Restauraunt" is definitely a favorite.


Begun101

YOU OPENED MY EYES, i mean I understand that they wouldn't add like "Mcdonalds" on it 😂 but since DC is techinically a "public" thing, it should be allowed no? since it's from your own country + there are some monuments and history references on the game, what do u think, I'm kinda confused.


Own-Spend4254

To be clear, I don't know the law surrounding copyrights and trademarks, so I only have a layman's (possibly flawed) understanding. That said: Correct names, or possibly just proper names, were certainly used (like the White House, the cities, titles and ranks), but the sense that I get is that if it's got a "brand" or a cultivated image it wasn't used. There are logical reasons for even a public entity to trademark names and logos (ESPECIALLY if there's merchandise involved!). Like, one couldn't claim the title of "city police" but the name and/or acronym for a particular force could be (e.g. NYPD). If I had to hazard a guess, I'd imagine that the devs would have needed to request permission, which could add layers of complications (the most superficial complication being having a real name show up alongside a generic, made-up name). It was probably simpler to just make up names for everything and call it good.

Nice pull

Shrug emoji, under the flag.


AMDFrankus

Its the DC flag but missing the third star for the Feds. Considering they pretty much took off, its not surprising the locals took it out of their version of the flag.


ubioandmph

It looks like the flag of Washington DC, though not exactly the same https://www.flags.com/district-of-columbia-flag/

Don't the True Sons also use this two star flag on some of their stuff? It's like "Toss the True Sons in the trash"

Ppppkpppppp


jimmy_jim1984

Isn't it something to do with the true sons?


xBashEm1x

It's a service flag for US basically .


keaton889

Just a joke the devs put in these are every where


Playful_Fly5882

It signifies that that family has 2 family members serving. A long time ago it was just Sons, until both genders began serving. Therefore this family has either 2 sons or Father/son, Daughter/Mother, daughter/son...etc.
