    What kind of combat knife does he have, and why is it the green/red/black that the Palestinian flag uses?!

      My guess is it's the green / red / black from the Afghan flag, as seen on the round patch below the ISAF patch on his left arm

        Thanks that makes sense. I forgot if this was a picture from Afghanistan or his "vacation" to Swaziland.

              Swaziland is nested inside South Africa and nowhere near Somalia. There is a nearby region called Somaliland. I know nothing about Pete Buttigugg so I can’t say where he actually was.

                  The names are kind of similar, but are you telling me he went on a vacation to Somaliland? That is very much not a standard vacation spot.

    I get the joke that Pete is a psychopath who hurts dogs for pleasure. But where does that originate from?

      Felix said it on the pod to describe his quiet rage, he said that you know he goes back home and kills a dog to make himself feel better. The meme was everywhere like within a week of that lol.

        That plus the incredibly high kill-rate of South Bend animal shelters while that rat was mayor
