[…] I think their saing the snake in the photo beleaves that they will get to be the boot someday

If that's the case, the exact meaning of that statement isn't exactly clear to me. Does "the snake in the photo" refer to people who support liberty in general? Does it refer only to people who stand beside the Gadsden flag? Does it refer to people who misappropriate the Gadsden flag?

IMO, an entity that supports authoritarianism has no business associating itself with the Gadsden flag in the first place. So I'm not exactly sure what message this image is trying to convey. Is it saying that those who support liberty fundamentally support authoritarianism somehow? Is it calling out those who misappropriate the Gadsden flag?. Is it accusing those who espouse liberty of cowardice of inaction whilst they are oppressed by authoritarianism?
