My take on this take

As it's mentioned, aspen trees share roots to help each other when someone needs it.

Maybe the chains should be replaced with a broken black stripe to make it less on the nose / more stylish.

    Colors: yes

    Aspen leaf: yes

    Broken chain: yes

    Pen and pickaxe: no. I think the work force in the USA is so diverse it's really impossible to symbolize everyone. I thought of creating a flag for my own area which would have, like, a lobster, a mouse, a computer mouse, a house—god knows what. It's too much. (Edit: I changed the colors of the traditional Maine state flag. It's still a settler flag but an improvement over the original—I hope. I'll post it later.)

    I don't know. The hammer and sickle is controversial but so powerful and badass. If I saw people marching with a simple red flag outside I would cum so fast it would travel back in time.

      Hey maybe the broken-chains-and-leaf could be the "default" and each place adds their own details.

      In the post I reference they said the pickaxe is because of Blair Mountain (the past) and the pen is the future (also both pointing to the left). Otherwise yeah miners are a small minority of workers.
