Anyone remember a recent metafilter post about blacked out aesthetic?

I'm trying to find a fairly recent (less than a year old?) Metafilter post. It was a post about the aesthetics of blacked-out vehicles, and monochrome US flags, and what their symbolism means and how it developed.

If I recall correctly, it had to do with white supremacy and the relationship with police and the "thin blue line", with references to the "don't tread on me" flag and the biker fashion aesthetic, but I'm having the toughest time finding it by search or site:metafilter.com search with Google, or searching my own firefox history. This content was in the form of a longform webcomic. I've tried searching by many of the keywords above, no dice.

Best answer: It may have been this post about fascist fashion.

Best answer: Was it this one? (I searched for "murdered out", as I recalled someone using that turn of phrase)

Response by poster: That's exactly it, thank you both! I forgot about the search term "fascist".
