      It’s a red flag for “approves of police brutality against those people” at the very least, but context is important. Single Punisher skull on their Dodge Ram? MAGA gun fetishist. If there’s at least one other comic reference the odds are way better of them being fine actually.

        Mine was just a custom punisher logo with a Subaru symbol inside of the head portion. Idk I always liked Punisher, long before the cops started touting it… but that’s a shitty thing about getting old I guess. Things that used to be cool are now symbols of hatred. I wonder if this is how the Buddhists felt when the Nazis hikacked the swastika.

      Just generally the not terribly smart conservative tough guy demeanor, not even using the symbol correctly is a dead give away.

        On my old Subaru wrx, I had blacked out the entire thing, and in the small windows in the back I had a punisher logo on either side with a Subaru symbol inside of it. I thought it looked neat haha, am very far from maga though. I always liked Punisher, long before dude was co-opted by those turds. I can see how it’s a bad look though.
