This is a repurposing of a famous flag of defiance flown by Texans as part of the Texas revolution against Mexico.

The poster has redesigned the sign to say that their local government can come and take their bicycles and bicycle infrastructure. This this is a meme for bicycle infrastructure using a language that is easily recognized by people who would be anti-bicycle. This is part of a series of memeworks this poster has shared twisting generally reactionary talking points to "trick" or persuade would be reactionaries to being pro anti-car.
