The upside-down American flag goes mainstream as a form of right-wing protest.
NPR reports on the trend after an inverted American flag flew outside the Virginia home of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito in January 2021. Many conservatives displayed the flag in a similar fashion to protest Donald Trump's conviction in the hush-money case.

@noplasticshower from their perspective it's the opposite: BECAUSE the flag deserves respect, that's why it's a protest against the state of affairs.
It's respectful recognition of the flag in the course of expressing what they consider to be important.
