Flag Chaos: Similar National Flag Comparison Rage Comic

This long vertical rage comic style meme presents groupings of visually very similar national flags, paired with increasingly frustrated classic early 2010s rage comic reaction faces to joke about how difficult it is to tell many world flags apart. It opens with pairs of near-identical color-swapped flags (Ireland/Ivory Coast, Mali/Guinea, Poland/Indonesia, Senegal/Ghana) paired with annoyed squinting rage faces. Next are trios of near-identical flags (Paraguay/Netherlands/Luxembourg, Mexico/Italy/Hungary, Palestine/Jordan/Kuwait, Colombia/Ecuador/Venezuela, Malaysia/United States/Liberia) paired with a frustrated, disbelieving black-haired rage face. This is followed by quartets of extremely similar flags (Andorra/Chad/Romania/Moldova, Egypt/Iraq/Syria/Yemen) paired with stressed, overwhelmed rage faces. The next section covers Commonwealth flags that all share the Union Jack (Australia/United Kingdom/New Zealand/Fiji/Tuvalu), with a trollface placed over the UK flag as the source of this similarity, surrounded by horrified rage faces. A section of nearly identical Nordic and UK regional cross-based flags follows, before the meme ends with the uniquely non-rectangular flag of Nepal paired with the laughing Yao Ming reaction face, as the only easily identifiable, fully distinct flag, delivering the final punchline.
