White flags are commonly associated with defeat in battle. Probably not the vibe one wants.
Especially if this represents the Earth in the face of aliens on other planets and they happen to know the flag of surrender... It would definitely give them the wrong impression about Earth.

Surprisingly, none with crabs on them.
Carcinization will fix that eventually. And then Roko's Crabulisk will hunt down everyone who didn't vote for the crab flag.

A white flag used to be the flag of France: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_France_(1814... A world flag should not use flags which were associated with a country. Evan this proposal is too derivative of the Japanese flag.

#160Can’t wait for CGP Grey’s review of this flag
is he still making content it feels like its been forever since ive heard anything about him
He's been radio silent for 9+ months. No videos, no podcasts.
People have been speculating on his reddit subs, but honestly anything from early retirement, to stay at home dad, to sabbatical, to serious illness is completely possible. The parasociality of everything has probably gotten old over time, too.
