You can forget everything else, this is all the flag-based content you need.
Flags and anthems have been in the press a lot the last few days for good reason and knowing this, British comedian Ken Cheng decided that his next online endeavour would be to "disrespect" every country's flag individually in what is quickly becoming one of the greatest threads Twitter has ever seen.
Its joy lies in its simplicity, and it all started like this.
Thread where I disrespect every flag of every country one by one
The US flag: god it's shite

Of course, with Cheng's commitment to doing 195 flags, things were bound to change with some flags receiving feedback while others got the criticism they deserve.

Things started to change when Cheng got to Swaziland and started discovering the bad ass flags of the world, and praise was given where it was due.
actually have to admit Swaziland flag is cool, NFL players would struggle to take a knee, esp as it looks like an actual football
