A plain black flag. It can represent mourning, protest, anarchism, defiance, or a generally dark and ominous mood.
People use it for somber posts, rebellious themes, and pirate references, although a pirate flag is more clearly shown with a skull and crossbones. In motorsport contexts, a black flag means a driver must leave the track, usually because of a penalty or safety issue.
