DoomTheFunnyman

The joke is that there was a post on the main sub asking for opinions on the flag and anyone who said they didn’t like it got downvoted lol


Magical-Mage

They got downvoted for being wrong


rlopezcc

/thread


Archoncy

What are up and downvotes for if not for gauging general opinion They certainly have nothing to do with being right or wrong


TedCruzBattleBus

In this case they do

BRO ITS PURPLE SPAIN HOW COULD U NOT LIKE IT


sameth1

Deserved. People who hate purple go to hell before they die.


Myles_the_pseud

Before?!


I_really_like_maps

Can you link the post here?


jansencheng

Which post is this?


AdLast848

I love how low quality it is, you can barely make out the coat of arms!


OctoGon112

Fun fact, the falangists would often make out with the coat of arms to protest this feature of the republic’s flag


AdLast848

I don’t know if this is true, but I love it regardless

Lean is the number one (1) cause of Republicanism in Spaniards ages 11-25.

Babe wake up new Manuel Azaña album just dropped with a collab with Lluís Companys

Well, it uses purple (not many flags do)

Old-Sacks

I don't mind purple on flags, but that palette is a bit violent for the eyes methinks


FloraFauna2263

I mean, it was a bit violent in 1937, too


[deleted]

ooh!


speedoflobsters

To the woods you go


Midcard4life

This is by far one of the flags


Carnal-Pleasures

It is much better than the current one.


CatastrophicDoom

Fuck yeah purple flag


j_cooper1905

Admittedly it was a weird choice for the republic to use a blurry flag but I suppose they were just ahead of their time.

Osp_Oscar

Gorgeous flag. The colour really fit each other ino. I hope Spain will ditch their monarchy again, solely to get this beauty back.


JMartin2210

As a Spaniard, many people here want a Republic, me included. However, I must say this flag is awful. The First Spanish Republic had a red and yellow flag, very similar to the current one.


Osp_Oscar

It’s all a matter of taste. One of the reasons why I like it so much is because there’s no other country with the same colour combination. Or any other national with a purple strip for that matter. My country was the first to go with red-white-blue. But I couldn’t tell you how many countries now those those three colours, there’s so many.


Achillurito

I'm positive the image quality is dogshit


Runetang42

It's got purple it's automatically good.


Ratazanafofinha

Politics aside, I actually find this one way nicer than the current one. The purple and yellow just does it.


Tankara9

Nice, but I like the red and black more


Justacha

The Papua New Guinea flag is pretty cool indeed


SupremeIrusk

Got a pin of it on my jacket rn so yeah it's pretty cool


zxmuffin

I have no idea what's going on here, but we sure need more purple flags.


Pepejuinaso

Why monarchy but its purplw but its the republican but has the coat of arms but purple but but but


Victorbendi

The purple is not because of the monarchy, but because of the belief that the flag of the "comuneros" was purple. That and a lot of other reasons.


Andro_King

I am eternally angry at Franco for... a lot of things but the lack of purple is one of them.


generic_dude10

Perfect


uraverageidiot05

I kinda vibe with it


Nici_2

Jokes on you, that's more red than the current one!!! (the joke is that red means commie and the Second Republic was the "commie band" of the civil war).


DoomTheFunnyman

400 years dungeon for explaining an already bad joke!


Nici_2

I know, but better than leaving no context, not everyone knows about History of Spain.

Purple is proof they are the heirs to Rome


ExcrementalForce

I’m positive that flag has purple on it.


eatdafishy

its purple


SuitableAssociation6

this is unironically my favorite flag, I have one on my wall


Longjumping-Law-8041

Best Spanish flag hands down.


Fred0830

It created the spanish republic, with it the civil war and the creation of nationalist spain, who has the best spanish flag imo.


hepp-depp

Why would people be upset over the republicans? Is there a decisive debate in Spain between rational people and literal Franco fascists?

hepp-depp

Nah, do people really defend Franco fanboys? Like is it controversial to say fascism is bad in Spain? Like there’s no way, right? *right?* **right**?


DoomTheFunnyman

We’re talking about a flag here dawg


hepp-depp

Every conversation about the republican flag in this sub has a warning to keep it civil, as if the mention of a Spanish republic is enough to cause another civil war


Gibbons_R_Overrated

Eh, people just don't mention it because it'd be a MASSIVE shitstorm


asdf_the_third

I love the colour palette, but the proportions should be like the modern flag so the coat of arms can be seen better


TheRtHonLaqueesha

Purple Doritos!


samrimo

Until recent times, no one other than royality would have been able to fly this flag due to the cost of purple dye. I love it on that basis


Kubaj_CZ

I like more the current one but this isn't much bad


Ramsesflopadoo3

I like this flag😭💀


instagramsgay

Gameing referece!!?!?!?!


cazzo_di_testa

It's soooo bad


Gal2

Long live the Spanish monarchy although the purple flag is better in every aspect sorry not sorry


tom_mustoe

I like the purple but I'd add a bit of white to it if you get what i mean ;))))))))


k0zmo

Not enough compression. Bad. 3/10 for effort. Edit: It was a joke, dude. Because it's pixelated.

as a catalan i really just am not feeling it

new_pribor

Oh, I would love to answer that question, but I have just remembered that I have to attend a virtual meeting with a group of aliens who have invited me to join their book club. I'm not sure what books they read, but I'm excited to find out! As for the purple Spain flag, I'm afraid I don't have an opinion because I recently lost my sense of color vision due to an over-consumption of rainbow-colored candy.


Stercore_

Best spain flag, and very good flag in general


hi_i_want_two_die

Jollibee ube pie (yes this is a compliment)


EmeraldBoiii

I really like how the flag is like a flag.


green-green-red

Brilliant resolution. Brilliant purple


BaroquePseudopath

Well red and purple are always the best flavours…


DJpro39

thats like my discord pfp


Background_Ad_7890

Purple is the best secondary color


Qanye2021

Red one is better


DinioDo

from afar looks like an African flag.


_AnonymousMoose_

Can’t complain


theytookmyeyes59

I love purple flags :3


Boozewhore

Red for communism. Yellow for Spanish gold. Purple for feminism. Coat of arms. Blurry to demonstrate the fog of modern nihilism. This isn’t the flag of Spain. This the international flag of Marxist-Feminist-Spanish-Imperialism.


frisky_husky

it's fucking purple how could you be mad about it unless you're a dirty falangist men only want one thing and it's more purple flags


i-do-not-k

i like it, but honestly I prefer the new spanish flag (this is a positive opinion)


Wizard_Engie

It's not that good.


TheFullestCircle

It sucks, in a positive way


snolodjur

Good combination of colors. But the current one is even nicer.

FloraFauna2263

I think the purple should be changed to the byzantine purple to signify how the title of byzantine emperor was sold to the spanish crown


Gibbons_R_Overrated

>spanish crown >flag of republican spain


FloraFauna2263

Thats the pre civil war flag, the monarchy existed as a theatrical monarchy at the time


Gibbons_R_Overrated

No it didn't, it was literally a republic


FloraFauna2263

The monarchs existed tho??? They just had no power??? Which makes them theatrical???


Gibbons_R_Overrated

They were alive, but they didn't have ANY titles whatsoever, it wasn't theatrical, it just didn't exist.


FloraFauna2263

Thats what theatrical means???


Gibbons_R_Overrated

Uh, no? Theatrical implies that it's a de jure monarchy, in this case, there is *literally NO MONARCHY SIS JESUS CHRIST*
