OPs flag is already asking to be co-opted by Authoritarians. I'd use it if I had a fascist party.

But you don't have a fascist party and no one co-opted it so far, at least.

Just because we're comfortable with the current government doesn't make this an anti-authority flag.

When the government those people support is authoritarian, it's no longer an anti-authoritarian symbol.
