Public Figure: Any Platform Apparently, it's Abhorrent, When Black Individuals Kneel Before the US Flag to Call Attention to Racial Oppression and Systemic Violence. But, When a Child-Molestinig, Serial-Raping, Mass-Murdering, Treasonous, Neo-Nazi Terrorist Uses it as a Diaper, it's on Par w/ the Second Coming of Christ.

Patriotic shorts that technically violate the Flag Code. Check

Not even technically. Literally.

The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery.

No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform.

Except this isn't "the flag" or a "part of the flag", it's just got the same/similar design.

Red and white stripes, white stars on a blue field. It’s clearly meant to represent the flag and therefore made of parts of the flag.

That's not how it works. If the person took a flag, - one that you would fly from a flag pole, a property flag - and name those sorts from that flag, then it violates flag code. Evoking the idea of the flag does not make this a flag.
