*too much of a social dipshit to understand a tub of ice crème can rotate
That just makes it the netherlands, but its understandable that americans dont know flags of other nations
Also, it doesn't make it the American flag in any way, so this person apparently doesn't know what any of those three flags look like.
It makes it match the lid of what you bought dumbass
You probably shouldn't be calling people dumbasses when you don't apparently understand the basics of punctuation.
Ruh roh, derp derp, lemmy graded my text.
This really doesn't help your case when it comes to questioning the intelligence of others.
Why you think this has anything whatsoever to do with matching the lid is definitely beyond me. Perhaps you could explain it.
Let me try since the other person noped out:
This is red white and blue ice cream, colors (in that order) Americans associate with our flag. Nothing I can see on the package indicates the ice cream is supposed to look like a flag. When displayed blue, white, and red it does resemble a French flag. But simply turn the container and we see the red, white, and blue Americans associate with our flag and country.
You know what, nevermind, it’s like half a layer deep, you’ll figure it out, have a good night
Sounds to me like you can't actually explain it.
second oldest current flag in existence
Technically that's the UK based on the third column.
formalized size or colors?
Red, white, and blue are the colors of the American flag. (As many other countries, but we specifically refer to our colors in that order.) It didn't say the ice cream looked like an American flag. Yes, when it is displayed blue, white, and red it looks like a French flag. When rotated it goes red, white, and blue which Americans associate with our flag.
Also, it would have to be rotated a quarter turn to be Dutch: red on top, white in the middle, blue on the bottom. But I wouldn't expect you to know European flags
