Tbf even if it IS the punisher skull that’s still a massive dogwhistle.
I have yet to meet someone showcasing that that also wasn’t showing fascist tendencies…
I seriously don’t understand why folks in law enforcement and the military use the Punisher imagery.
To be fair, I am in the military (not the American one though) and I like the Punisher comics and films.
But the Punisher represents the absolute FAILURE of the system. As law enforcement and military, WE are the supposed to be the system. Using those colours implies that we are failures. I don’t believe that’s a good place to be starting from.
Frank himself (or at least his authors) agree.

I need to watch the new Daredevil because I’ve been told theres a big beautiful punisher battle for those of us that realize the punisher would kick the shit out of LEOs that use his imagery.
It’s a part of his show too
Word, I haven’t kept up since the Disney plus move, love the Jon Bernthal Fank Castle though.
I made a kick ass punisher Windows XP theme way back. But thay was when the movie came out and I just thought the black and white theme and skull start button looked cool.
