Wow. This doesn't work on any level. If your point is "colonialism bad" the last pane has nothing to do with it. If your point is that libertarians are the same as conquered people, that doesn't really work either. Who is this for?

You could say don't tread on me is foolish to say because it's going to be ignored based on history

Talk is cheap, need action like building walls or arming yourself for self defense

I'm good with Don't Tread On Me, but it has nothing to do with the other two panes, imo.

The phrase don't tread on me literally means I want to be left alone. But this is a joke making fun of liberals.

I think you mean figuratively. The literal meaning is "Gadsden intended his flag as a warning to Britain not to violate the liberties of its American subjects."

Think about it, Americans wanted Britain to leave them alone.

Well, first, it's a political statement masquerading at a joke. Second, it didn't stick the landing, purely my opinion. Lastly, bot?! Why would a bot bother commenting on a stupid joke?

This meme failed at both.
